Manage Android Notifications on your Device:
If you device runs on Android 5.0, then you have a simple method to manage your notifications including setting up a priority list. You can even select specific days and times in which you only want to get priority notifications, so follow these simple steps:

- Choose ‘Sound & notification’;
- Then, select ‘Interruptions’;
- Once everything is set up you can toggle between the three notification profiles (none, priority & all) by pressing one of your Volume buttons.
If you want to completely disable some notifications you don’t need, the story is also very simple. You just have to use Google Device and to follow these steps:
- For the start, go to the Settings icon;
- Enter into the Device section of Settings;
- Tap Apps;
- On the Apps screen, scroll through the list of apps and touch the app for which you want to stop receiving notifications;
- The App info screen displays for the selected app, so all you have to do is to touch the Show notifications check box so there’s no check mark in the box;
- A dialog box displays making sure you really want to turn off notifications;
- Confirm your action by tapping OK;
