Video Transcript:
Nothing can be more frustrating than notifications popping up on your PlayStation 5 and taking you out of the flow of a game, or message notifications popping up that you don't want other people to see. Thankfully, Sony gives you a lot of control over how notifications are displayed on your PS5, and you can choose to turn them off entirely, or you can can control whether certain message types are displayed and how those message types are shown. This includes notifications for when your friends go online, notifications from games, game invitations, notifications for trophies and more. I'll cover how to do both in this video.

First let's look at how to turn off all notifications on your PS5, or to turn off previews for all notifications.

Step 1. Navigate to your PS5 home screen, and then click the "Settings" icon. You'll land on the Settings screen.

Step 2. Click "Notifications." The Notifications screen is shown.

Step 3. If you want to turn off all notifications on your PS5, click to turn off the toggle associated with "Allow Pop-Up Notifications." Alternatively, if you want to remove the preview for everything and just get simple alerts, scroll down this list and turn the toggle off associated with "Show Preview" if you no longer want to display message previews.

Alternatively, if you'd like to control whether certain types of notifications are displayed on your PS5 and how those notifications are displayed, you can do that at a more granular level. Let's walk through the steps to control individual notifications on your PS5.

Step 1. Navigate to your PS5 home screen, and then click the "Settings" icon. You'll land on the Settings screen.

Step 2. Click "Notifications." The Notifications screen is shown.

Step 3. Make sure "Allow Pop-Up Notifications" is toggled on.

Step 4. Scroll down to the Select Which Pop-ups You Want to See and How You See Them Section, click any of those options to bring up a menu, and then choose whether or not to show pop-up notifications for those items, whether or not to show pop-up notifications in games, whether or not to show pop-up notifications in videos, and whether or not to show pop-up notifications during broadcasts.
