Owners of smartphones with an operating system Android often face an intrusive stream of messages from marketplaces. The platform Wildberries is known for its aggressive marketing policy, sending dozens of notifications about discounts, promotions and order statuses daily. This is not just annoying, but also drains the battery, and also makes it difficult to concentrate on important tasks during the day.
You can completely block the application from sending signals in several ways: through the system settings of the phone itself or inside the app interface. Flexible settings are available to the user: you can remove absolutely all sounds or leave only critical delivery statuses. Let's look in detail at how to configure Android so that you decide for yourself when to receive information.
Before you start making changes, you should understand that the operating system interface may differ slightly depending on the manufacturer. Shells One UI from Samsung or MIUI from Xiaomi have their own menu layout features. However, the general principle of working with application permissions remains the same for all versions of the system, starting with Android 8.0.
Global disabling through the smartphone settings
The most reliable method that guarantees complete silence is to prohibit sending notifications at the operating system level. In this case Wildberries physically will not be able to display the message on the lock screen or curtain. To do this, you need to go to the main settings menu of your gadget.
Find the section responsible for managing installed apps. Depending on the phone model, it may be called Applications, Applications and notifications or simply Application Manager. In the list that opens, you will need to find the marketplace icon. If there are a lot of applications, use the search bar at the top of the screen.
After entering the menu of a specific application, you will see an item Notifications. Switching the toggle switch to the inactive state completely blocks the communication channel. The system will stop transmitting any signals from this source, including audio alerts and pop-up banners. This solution is suitable for those who rarely use the service or want to check information only when logging into the application in person.
⚠️ Attention: If completely disabled, you may miss important messages from the courier or changes in order status. It is recommended to leave this channel active if you expect delivery in the near future.
Fine-tuning notification channels
Modern versions Android allow you to manage not just the fact of the presence of notifications, but their types. Application developers are required to separate messages into categories so that the user can flexibly set priorities. In the case of Wildberries this makes it possible to turn off advertising noise while maintaining delivery information.
In the same application settings menu where the general switch is located, find a list of categories. It is usually located below the main toggle switch. Here you will see items such as “Promotions”, “Discounts”, “Personal offers” and “Order status”. You need to go inside each advertising section and turn the switch to the “Off” position.
Pay special attention to setting the importance of the channel. For each message type, you can set a priority level. If you select the option Silent or Minimum, the message will arrive, but the phone will not vibrate or make sounds. This is a compromise option for those who do not want to completely lose contact with the store.
| Notification type | Recommended action | Severity level |
|---|---|---|
| Order status | Leave enabled | High |
| Promotions | Disable completely | Low |
| Personal discounts | Mute sound | Medium |
| Change price | Disable completely | Low |
If you do not see the list of categories in the settings, try sending a test message from application or update it to the latest version via Google Play.
Disable sounds and vibrations within the application
Sometimes the system settings seem too complicated, or the user wants to change the behavior of notifications without leaving the store interface. In the application itself Wildberries there is also a settings section that allows you to manage alerts. This method is less reliable as it depends on the store's software version.
Log into your personal account by clicking on the profile icon in the bottom menu. Next, go to the settings section, which is usually indicated by a gear. Look for an item related to notifications or push messages. Here you can often uncheck the “News”, “Promotions” and “Special Offers” items.
It is worth noting that the settings inside the application often duplicate the system ones, but do not always have priority over them. If audio is enabled on the system but muted in the app, the phone may still beep. Therefore, combining both methods gives the best result.
In some interface updates, the marketplace removes the ability to fine-tune, leaving only a general switch. In this case, you should rely solely on the capabilities of your operating system Android. Developers often change the location of these menus to suit marketing purposes.
☑️ Audit notification settings
Control via long tap on the icon
There is an express method that allows you to get to the desired settings menu in a couple of seconds, without wandering through the depths of system partitions. This method works on most modern smartphones running pure Android and shells from major manufacturers.
Find the application icon Wildberries on the main screen or in the all applications menu. Press it and hold your finger for 1-2 seconds. A pop-up menu with quick actions will appear. Among them there will definitely be a bell icon or the letter “i” in a circle.
Clicking on the bell icon will immediately open the notification management window. You can instantly switch the toggle switch or go into channel details. If there is no icon, click on the information button (i), and then select the section Notifications. This saves a lot of time compared to the standard route through settings.
This method is especially convenient if you want to quickly turn off the application during a meeting or rest, and then just as quickly return everything back. It minimizes the number of clicks and transitions between screens.
Features of working on different Android shells
Smartphone manufacturers often modify the standard interface Android, adding their own functions or changing the logic of operation. This may also apply to managing application permissions. Understanding the features of your shell will help you quickly find the necessary switches.
On devices Samsung with the One UI shell, the path may lie through the "General notifications" section in the quick settings of the curtain. There is also a Do Not Disturb feature that can block all sounds except selected contacts. Make sure that Wildberries is not added to the exceptions of this function.
Owners of phones Xiaomi with MIUI or HyperOS shell should be attentive to the "Other notifications" category. In this system there is a division into “Important” and “Other”. Advertising spam is often disguised as important system messages, so check both categories carefully. On smartphones
On smartphones Honor and Huawei with the EMUI or MagicOS shell, settings may be hidden in the phone manager. There is a section for managing autorun and secondary launches, which also affects the application's ability to send background signals.
⚠️ Attention: Interfaces are updated regularly by developers. If you do not find the described item, use the search in your phone settings by entering the word “Notifications.”
What to do if the settings are reset?
Some aggressive memory optimizer apps can force close applications and reset their power saving settings. Add Wildberries to the exclusion list of your antivirus or memory cleaner so that the settings are saved stably.
Why notifications return after updating
Users often complain that after updating the application Wildberries all settings are lost, and spam returns with renewed vigor. This is due to the fact that with a major update, the application may request new permissions or create new notification channels with default settings.
With each major update, developers can add new mailing categories, for example, "Games", "Finance" or "WB Coffee". These new channels are automatically enabled because the system considers them new entities. You will have to periodically check the list of channels and turn off unnecessary ones.
It is also worth considering that the marketplace can use different types of push messages. In addition to standard push, there are SMS newsletters and notifications in instant messengers if you have linked your phone number to the store’s Telegram bot. Disabling the application does not affect SMS and messages in third-party instant messengers.
For complete protection from information noise, it is recommended to regularly audit installed applications. Remove apps that you have not used for a long time. This will not only clear notifications, but will also free up space on the device's memory.
Regularly checking your settings after app updates is the only way to ensure there is no unwanted spam in the long run.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Is it possible to turn off only the sound, but leave the icon on the screen?
Yes, it is possible. In the notification channel settings, select the category you want to mute and set the Importance setting to Silent or Low. In this case, the message will appear in the curtain, but the phone will not make sounds or vibrate.
Why don’t I see a button to turn off notifications?
On some older versions of Android or in specific firmware builds, this option may be hidden. Try updating your system to the latest available version. If this does not help, use third-party launchers or applications to manage access rights.
Does disabling notifications affect the operation of the application?
No, the functionality of the application remains fully functional. You will be able to view the catalog, place orders and track their status manually within the app. Only automatic notification is disabled.
How to remove notifications if the application is deleted?
If the application is deleted, but notifications arrive, these may be cache remnants or web-push notifications from the browser. Check your browser settings (Chrome, Yandex) in the "Sites" section and disable permissions for the Wildberries website.
Is it possible to block notifications from Wildberries in Do Not Disturb mode?
Do Not Disturb mode temporarily hides all notifications. To prevent Wildberries from bothering you even when this mode is turned off, you need to use permanent blocking settings in the application section, and not temporary mode.
