Screen Wake up issue

[steepermouse40]

Hi all,

Is anyone aware of a setting to turn off screen from waking up for a new notification on OneUI8 S25 device? I can't seem to find any toggle for that on notifications or lockreen settings. Randomly lying on table screen pops up for an app notifications. 

Thanks for the input.

Try this:

Toggle Off Notifications on the LockScreen. 

 

In the screen shot, Notifications are Toggled ON, so you want to Toggle it OFF.

See if that works for you.

Cool. I learned something today. S22+ has a similar screen, as shown in your screenshot.

Thanks, so does that mean it will still show me notifications if I turn on the screen to unlock myself, but just won't wake the screen for a new notification?

Yes, you are right, steepermouse40

Hi steepermouse40,

Yes, you can prevent your screen from waking up for new notifications on One UI 8 by adjusting Lock Screen and Always On Display settings.

Here’s how to do it on your Galaxy S25 device:

• Go to Settings > Lock Screen > Notifications.

• Look for an option like “Wake screen when notifications arrive” or “Screen wakeup”.

• Toggle this OFF to prevent the screen from lighting up when a new notification is received.

Hi @Urmi actually there isn't such option at all in settings. By other method above I turned off Toggle for lockscreen notifications but then it stopped showing any notification when i click the power button to view my lockscreen contents.

If you select your Notifications as "Brief Popup" and Toggle this Off, WITHOUT Toggling Off ALL Notifications, you should get what you want? 

Let me know if that works for you?
