Launcher is sending you irrelevant notifications about what? Launcher isn't sending you anything it's something else(so turn that off) and you dont need Google's launcher to get calendar notifications and the mere fact that you are asking this says you are confused.
- stephengillie 9y agoMaps nagging me to confirm I was at specific locations at specific times, news articles I don't want to read, etc. Just now I re-enabled Launcher notifications, and it's notifying me that I can unlock my phone by saying "OK Google". This is common knowledge and not a notification I want or can use, but have no way to disable this irrelevance. Google calendar funnels notifications through the Google App, just like all Google apps, at least on my device.
- Grazester 9y agoYou could turn off those things and you dont need the default Google launcher to get notification(from Google app or whatever). I am here looking at a calendar reminder on my phone and I dont use the Google launcher. To turn of those location questions open Google Maps->Settings->Notification->Your contributions. Toggle what you want and dont want to be notified about. People seem to complain about this and not realise for some reason that it could be turned off without having to resort to something as crude as blocking the notification.
- stephengillie 9y agoHow do I get rid of the notifications telling me that I can unlock my phone by saying "OK Google"? Do your calendar notifications come from Google Calendar? Mine don't, and I don't know why. It's not readily apparent how to disable most of these, so the whole notification is disabled. It's a UI deficiency that could be argued to be a dark pattern.
