Make your phone
work for you.
Practical answers for the notifications you want,
and the ones you could do without.
How to block Android notifications by keyword
Choose the sending app and a specific phrase in the notification title or text. Quietly removes matching alerts after Android posts them; unrelated wording stays outside that rule. Free includes five saved rules.
How to stop promotional notifications on Android
First check the app’s marketing settings and Android notification categories. If promotions share a category with useful updates, a narrow Quietly text rule can remove matching alerts after they arrive.
How to find dismissed notifications on Android
On supported phones, check Settings → Notifications → Notification history. It must have been enabled before the alert arrived. Quietly adds searchable history and retention controls for notifications saved after setup.
How to manage work notifications after hours
Use Android’s Do Not Disturb for general quiet hours. For a specific app or phrase, add days and times to a Quietly rule. Removal happens after the notification arrives, so sound or a banner may occur first.
What notification access lets Quietly read
Notification access lets Quietly read the notifications Android delivers, including available message previews. Content stays on your device; ads and usage analytics are separate. You can stop processing and revoke access.
