(android tricks)Best way to stop ads and spam notification on android tricks

Advertisements are an inescapable part of contemporary life, but luckily, the vast majority of the ones we see on a daily basis follow certain guidelines. Unfortunately, everybody with a smartphone knows that some rogue advertising still find a way to break the rules, but there are ways to protect ourselves from harmful applications and websites providing us material that isn't intended for us.

We should be able to assist you in getting rid of full-screen pop-up advertising or spam alerts on your Android phone. We'll teach you how to find out where the malicious advertising or spam are coming from so you can delete them. If the alerts are coming from your web browser,

FULL ADS

Even if you have another program open, some malicious applications display full-screen advertising. Thankfully, determining where they originate is quite simple. Simply open the Recents/multi-tasking view (the screen that shows all the apps presently operating) whenever they appear, and you'll be able to see which app is at the front of the line, delivering you the ad.

On Android 11 and 12, the above displays are nearly identical. 

There may be an info button in

stead of a settings cog (which will take you to the app options), a button that reads 'Block all 

Notifications,' or a simple switch, depending on your Android version.

As if it wasn't bad enough to be pushed annoying alerts by your own phone's maker, some of them can't be turned off by holding down on the notification tray — Samsung makes you find each of the toggles in its apps that turn off notification ads. Here's how to find them.

Samsung Pay IS ONE OF ANOYING APP BUT THE BEST TOO.

1. Open Samsung Pay on your phone
2. Open the side menu and tap 'Settings'
3. Under 'General', switch 'Marketing and promotions' to off.

Bixby

1. Open Bixby on your phone
2. Tap the menu button at the top right, and select 'Settings'
3. Under 'General,' switch 'Marketing notifications' to off.

Samsung Push Service

Another culprit is called Samsung Push Service, but luckily that can be turned off in the usual manner:

1. Open 'Settings' and then 'Apps'
2. Search for 'Samsung Push Service'
3. Tap 'Notifications'
4. Toggle 'Marketing' off.

When setting up your Samsung device, there may also be a toggle for turning off advertisements across the OS. In Europe, turning this off seems to stop any ads from ever showing (potentially in order to be GDPR compliant). In other regions, your mileage may vary.

Notification ads from a web browser

If you get a notification ad from a web browser, it's probably not the browser itself sending those — it's a website you granted notification access to at some point. You may have done it accidentally, or you may have only noticed when the site started sending more and more alerts. Whatever the reason may be, you can easily cut off notifications from specific sites.

Google Chrome

If you see an unwanted notification from Chrome, tap 'Site settings,' and then 'Notifications.' From there, you'll be able to turn off the notification channel for the site that's sending the alert.

Alternatively, you can long-press the notification and then tap 'Turn off notifications' in the bottom left. You'll be able to toggle off the site's notification channel on the next screen (see below).

On older versions of Android, you may get a simple Block/Allow popup instead.

You can also turn off notifications from a site at any time from Chrome's settings. Open Chrome, tap the menu button at the top-right (three dots), select 'Site settings,' then tap 'Notifications.'

There, you'll see every website that has ever sent notifications to your phone. To block alerts from a site, select it from the list and tap 'Notifications.'

Samsung Internet Browser

Samsung's web browser handles notifications almost exactly like Chrome. When a site sends you an alert, you can tap the 'Site Settings' button and you'll be taken directly to the site settings page for all sites. The one that's sent you the notification will be in the Allowed list, and from there you can toggle it off.

You can get to this same menu via the app's settings — just head to Settings > Sites and downloads > Notifications > tap the three-dot menu ⋮ > Allow or block sites.

Firefox

Firefox doesn't support Android notification channels, and it doesn't have a general list of all sites you have granted notification permissions to. As a result, blocking notifications from a specific site is done a little differently since there is no 'Site settings' button.

When you get a notification, the site it came from is visible at the top. You have to go to that site in Firefox and tap the lock icon in the address bar next to the URL...

Then tap the 'Allowed' button next to Notification and it will change to 'Blocked'...
