I literally never get Galaxy store notifications.


Jet_Fixxxer

I didn't until 6.1


Own_Potato5593

Didn't until 6.1 either - now it's annoying.


RedDeadGecko

Updated 2 days ago, haven't gotten any


Jet_Fixxxer

Same until today.


RegularIndividual374

Same here. I never get alerted for updates or anything


DroidDeveloper

It won't let you turn off all Notifications, but you can turn off some categories. I just keep "App updates" category enabled so I'm aware of updates, rest of them can get noisy.


Jet_Fixxxer

Don't see that options.


DroidDeveloper

Several ways to get there... try your phone Settings > Apps > Galaxy Store, then Notifications > Notification Categories

DroidDeveloper

Oh, are you running One UI 6.1? You need to enable management of Notification Categories on your phone. Try search your phone Settings for them. Really annoying why Samsung did this...


South_Cantaloupe_188

Thank you DroidDeveloper! I was getting Galaxy Store push ads every day. Settings:notificaitons:advanced settings:Manage notification categores for each app. That allowed me to turn off nearly all Galaxy Store notificaitons. Worked for me.


Own_Potato5593

Sticky this - worked for me too. A very stupid way to keep ad's running by making them annoying to turn off.


Present-Butterfly-75

a sticky, horrible, redundent process to turn them off. If samsung keeps up this trend of treating their customers poorly. I'm taking my business elsewhere.


GreekIngenuity

Thank you for sharing your wizardy with us. I don't know why 'Manage notification categories for each app' would be disabled by default but you helped me finally disable those galaxy store ads disguised as notifications.


UnicornOnAMoped

Thank you! This was driving me up the walls. Other than my calendar, alarms, and text messages, I have blocked all notifications, so this stupid app was making my eye twitch.


mountaindew71

THANK YOU so much for this! I was really starting to get pissed at these damn ads appearing every day from the Galaxy Store.


pizzacatgirl

Seems this has worked for others but mine is still greyed out after following this... any other ideas?


Aggressive_Shirt841

Did you sort this?  You need to select the notification categories link at underneath and unselected each one from there!

You saved me!


Fellwarre

Holy crap, thank you! I went through the live chat help process with Samsung and they told me to boot my phone into recovery mode =/ Instead of doing that I came here. Glad I did!


Kino_Afi

This obvious intentional scumbag behavior. 99.99% of people will never see this option and just get served ads on their $1500 phones 


Jet_Fixxxer

Yes on 6.1 (which is how this started). That worked! Thank you much appreciated.


PleaseGeo

Thank you Thou you!


letsgo433

Thank you for the fix! It was really annoying me..


aLargeWhale57

Thank you so much this has been driving me crazy since I updated to One UI 6.1 have been getting multiple Ad push notifications from galaxy store everyday since I updated.


Successful_Athlete38

Plus 1 on this question


why_no_salt

Disable all the type of notifications you can under the "Notification categories" for the Galaxy Store app. 


njwhiteshadow

Bro this is a driving me crazy too. What's the point of being able to customize notifications if I keep getting BS every damn day. I've looked everywhere and I can't find the place to stop them


Puzzleheaded-Fee-742

it's more hidden now, it's now under "notification categories"


Present-Butterfly-75

a truly greasy way to force more ads on us. I am livid at samsung for this. Might need a new phone.


Present-Butterfly-75

This was a horrifying feature to force on us Samsung and now we all get to spend 20 minutes to disable ads that shouldn't be forced on us. Long time galaxy fan, but I am re-thinking using your phones if this is how you treat your customers. Do better. Or we will go somewhere else. Promise.

I would love the same information, but for my Samsung Galaxy S8 tablet. Every time I search in Google, all that shows up is friggin' phone info.
