While Android is ahead of the iPhone when it comes to managing and displaying notifications, the notification panel still gets clogged with too many entries from time to time. The main culprits are apps (such as gaming apps) that bombard you with meaningless notifications. Android allows you to silence these notifications on a per-app basis.

You can silence app notifications from the notification panel or the Settings app. To silence app notifications using the notification panel, long-press on a notification to reveal the notification management options. Then, choose to silence or turn off notifications.

You can also go to Settings > Notifications > App Settings to manage notifications for all the apps. Android also lets you manage what kind of notifications an app can send using its notification channels feature. Notification channels allow you to disable marketing and promotions notifications while ensuring you get important notifications like order updates
