Stop websites from constantly bothering you with notifications by turning them off in the browser settings.
Like apps, websites have the ability to send you notifications through your web browser. When visiting a website for the first time, it is not uncommon to see a request for authorization to send you a notification when the site in question wishes to notify you of new information.
Whether you have voluntarily subscribed to notifications from a website or involuntarily accepted a notification request, their multiplication on your smartphone, in addition to those sent by other applications, can quickly turn into chaos.
Chrome’s notifications pile up on top of each other in the notification center and it becomes difficult to tell the senders apart.

To avoid reaching the point of no return, it is possible to clean up Google Chrome by silencing the most annoying ones or completely disabling all notifications. Here’s how.
1. Open Chrome Settings
Launch Chrome, press the main menu represented by three small dots and go to Settings. Scroll through the displayed options and enter the Notifications menu.
2. Turn off notifications
You have two options to reduce the number of notifications received or to delete them.
You can choose to disable only annoying notifications sent by certain sites, or choose to disable All Sites notifications. By choosing this last parameter, Chrome should no longer send alerts to your smartphone at all.
3. Disable Notification Requests
To avoid falling into the trap, it is also possible to modify the Chrome settings so that the websites you visit can no longer send you notification requests.
To disable these requests, tap on Chrome’s main menu and go to Browser Settings. Within Advanced Settings, enter the Site Settings menu, and go to the Notification menu.
Then turn off the Notifications option to prevent websites from asking your permission to send notifications when you visit them.
