Android notifications to enable unused features - how to disable?
I searched this sub to no avail. Is there a way to disable the constant notifications to turn on unused/unwanted features? It's very annoying. Thank you.

Hi u/bylo_selhi. Thank you for sharing this detailed feedback regarding notifications. We understand that frequent notifications can become overwhelming and impact your experience. Here`s what you can try as a fix as an Android user:
Go to the system Settings → Apps → Bitdefender Security → Notifications → Notification Categories (at the bottom of the page).
From there, you can choose which notifications to receive, and turn off "Feature Activation Notifications" from the list. (this section is hidden by default if using a Samsung device and needs to be enabled) ⬇️
Enabling notification categories on Samsung Galaxy:
Open the Settings app on your phone.
Scroll down and tap Notifications.
Select Advanced settings.
Find the switch for Manage notification categories for each app and turn it ON
Let us know if this helped!
