Go to Settings → Notifications and switch off the kinds you don’t want. A switch that’s off stops those notifications completely. They don’t reach your phone, and they don’t show in your notifications list either.

Good to know

  • The switches are for your account, so they apply on every phone you’re signed in on.
  • Notices from Ayyam itself, like an answer to a support request or news about a boost, have no switch. They always come.
  • Nothing comes from people you’ve blocked, or for comments your Hidden words catch.
  • To see one kind at a time in your list, use Likes, Comments, Mentions and Follows at the top of Notifications.
  • To stop alerts from one chat, mute it. See How do I stop notifications for one person’s messages?
