stop google news alerts

We often see “New story” notifications popping up even if the Google News app isn’t installed on our Android device. These news story alerts displayed in the notifications shade are actually triggered by the Google app. As you may be well aware, the Google app comes pre-installed on all Android devices across the globe with China being an exception. The Discover Feed (formerly Google Feed) integrated into the Google app is responsible for these push notifications.

At times, you may find Google news notifications annoying and unnecessary. In such a case, you can simply turn off news notifications from Google. Doing so will stop Google news alerts from showing up in the notifications area as well as the lock screen. Here’s how you can do it on Android phones running the latest version of the Google app.

Turn off News story notifications from Google

  1. Open the Google app.
  2. Tap More from the bottom right. google app for android
  3. Go to Settings and open Notifications. google app notifications setting
  4. Under Other, uncheck the categories from which you do not want to get the notifications. Optionally, you can turn off notifications for Google Assistant too. customise google app notifications
