Stop Annoying Group Text Notifications

We’ve all been in those group texts that we don’t really care about, but they just keep going. Getting all those alerts popping up on your phone for the rest of the day is infuriating. Fortunately, there’s a straightforward way that you can put a stop to it.
- Head over to the Messages app and look at your conversations (don’t enter the chat).
- Find the message thread that’s annoying you, then swipe left on it. This will unveil two options – to delete the thread or hide alerts.
- Choose the Hide Alerts option. This will keep notifications from popping up, although you can still check the thread later and see what the new messages are.
