How to Turn Off Push Notifications

This article will show you how to Turn Off Push Notifications. We’ve all said yes when a site asked if we wanted push alerts at some point. But we’re guessing you’re sick of getting pings on your phone from the websites you’ve viewed. Here’s what you need to do on both your phone and your desktop computer to stop Chrome from sending you push alerts.

Push messages are alerts from certain apps that tell you about something new. They were made to let you know about something you might not have seen unless you opened the app yourself and found it. For example, if you get a new email, you can set your iPad or iPhone to immediately let you know. The Facebook app can send you a message when you get a new friend request on Facebook.

A push notification on your iPad lets you know about an event without having to open the app. For example, when you get a message on Facebook, an alert pops up on the screen, and when you get a new email, your iPad vibrates and makes a sound. You can find out about events without having to open a lot of apps, but this function can also drain your battery.
