How to Turn off and Stop Galaxy Store Notifications

Enabling Granular Notification Control:

The initial step involves enabling the "Manage notification categories for each app" setting within your device's notification settings. This empowers you to control the specific types of notifications received from individual apps, including the Galaxy Store.

Access your device's Settings menu.

Locate the "Notifications" section and navigate to it.

Within the Notifications menu, identify and select "Advanced settings."

Locate and activate the toggle switch labelled "Manage notification categories for each app."

Disabling Unwanted Galaxy Store Notifications:

Once you've enabled granular notification control, proceed with the following steps:

On your home screen, locate the Galaxy Store app icon and perform a long-press.

This will reveal an app information menu. Tap on the "App Info" icon (usually represented by a lowercase "i") situated in the top right corner.

Within the App Info menu, navigate to the "Notifications" section.

Select "Notification categories."

You will be presented with a list of various notification categories for the Galaxy Store app. Deactivate the toggle switches for any notification category you wish to suppress.

Important Update Notifications:

It's important to acknowledge that the "Important updates" notification category cannot be disabled. These notifications serve a critical purpose, delivering crucial information regarding updates that address security vulnerabilities, enhance app functionality, and rectify critical bugs. Disabling these notifications is highly discouraged as they safeguard your device and ensure optimal performance of the Galaxy Store app.

Alternative Method (Limited Applicability):

While the aforementioned method offers the most comprehensive control over Galaxy Store notifications, some users might encounter a variant approach. This method involves launching the Galaxy Store app, navigating to the menu settings (typically represented by three vertical dots), and selecting the "Notifications" option (if available). However, it's important to note that this alternative method might not be universally available on all Samsung devices.

By following these steps, you can effectively silence unwanted Galaxy Store notifications, ensuring you only receive alerts that are relevant and of interest. Please remember that Samsung continually strives to improve the user experience based on feedback. Future updates may introduce a global option to completely disable all Galaxy Store notifications.
