Tab S9: Stop notifications for the Galaxy Store

[Yoshi12483]

Hello, 

Since the OneUI 6.1, there have been nothing but daily advertisements from the Galaxy Store on "sponsored" ads. This is a public notice to please listen to the customers and stop force feeding advertisements through their phone. 99.9% of advertisements are not pertinent and will never be installing those apps on my phone. I ask respectfully that Samsung stop sending unwanted advertisements through my phone and instead continue to advocate for the choice of the user. Failure to do so will result in me no longer purchasing Samsung products.

Thanks very much.

A Samsung user

Update: This issue has been fixed for the S23 series (of what has been observed), but NOT for the Tab S9 series. Samsung, please listen to your customers. This will be my last Samsung device if this continues

Agree

Just turn off marketing notifications in the galaxy store app settings

That is not showing up on the Tab S9 Ultra. Unlike the S23 Ultra, there is no way to remove notifications

@Yoshi12483 Try this:

1. Open the tablets settings
2. Click on Notifications
3. Click on Advanced settings
4. Enable the option "Manage notification categories for each app"

Now:

1. Long press on the Galaxy Store icon
2. Click the little circled i in the upper right of the dialog
3. Click on Notifications
4. Click on Notification categories
5. Turn off all the items that you don't want to see.

That is not possible, please see the screenshot.

To walk you through the steps that I have completed to get to this, I have been able to do this perfectly fine on my s23 ultra. I have also tried uninstalling all updates of the Galaxy store, and notification categories is missing on my tab S9 ultra.

@Yoshi12483 That is really weird. I am able to do it just fine on my Tab S8+. Have you tried wiping the device cache partition on your tablet?

[Yoshi12483]

Just wiped cache partition twice, didn't do anything unfortunately, still missing the notification category tab

@Yoshi12483 Very strange. For the moment, I don't have any other suggestions.

No worries, I appreciate you trying to help!
