Adjust app notification settings
You probably have a bunch of apps on your device, like messaging and music apps, that you use daily. Your app
notifications can be customized ( "https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00062618/" ) to suit your
needs if you want to view, block, or snooze them during the day. Or, change up the notification sounds and
vibrations so you can be alerted right away when you receive an important message.
