Re: Stop bogus notification please

The most annoyed part is I already disabled all notifications from game setting, I still get it every hour! 


You didn't mention if you are playing on Android, iOS, or some other platform.  

On Android, select settings then apps.  Make sure you select Downloaded and find the SimCity app, and select it.  You should get a screen that shows you options to Force Stop, Uninstall, and Clear Data.  (Don't select those, I'm just mentioning them for reference!)  You should also see a checkbox that is labeled Show Notifications.  Make sure it is unchecked, and the game should stop sending you game notifications when it is not running.  BTW, this works for any app that has notifications that are bugging you.

There should be similar settings on other devices, but I don't have those settings handy at the moment.

    So, your in-game setting for notification is just a decoy? You can't control it from your in-game setting?

    @ranma33 -- Keep in mind that we are just other players volunteering our time here and cannot speak for EA.  That said, I believe that the in-game setting reduces or eliminates the notifications on some, but not all devices.  Fortunately, the device itself can eliminate all of the notifications if you follow the steps shown earlier in the thread for both Android and iOS.  Also, for anyone who is reading this well in the future from now, the various operating systems are likely to undergo further changes and revisions, but the steps should be similar, even if worded slightly differently.
