Annoying notifications

Jump to solution

Hi,

 

I did turn off almost all notifications on the Etsy app, apart from sales. But for some reason, I still get some unnecessary notifications about selling tips, etc. I don't want them. How can I resolve this?

@AnnaDcrochet   You don't need to get the selling tips - you should be able to opt out in your Profile - Account Settings - Emails tab at the top.  Uncheck any you don't want, then save settings at the bottom.

 

* This is done on desktop - not the app, but you should be able to access the desktop mobile site.

I did it a long time ago. 

It's about the chichangs, not the emails notifications.

You say you left the sales notifications on, but it's the chichangs that are bothering you. Those are the sales notifications. 

Depending on what kind of phone you have, you may be able to turn off sounds and only get a banner alert or something.

I am not bothered by the ' ching changs' and banner alert  from sales, because I especially left them  and I want them. I don't  want a  ching chang  with ' share and sale' tips etc.

Ah, of course you wouldn't. I've never heard of anything getting a chaching except for sales.

There might be some from etsy that you can't opt out of as a seller.  They sometimes send push notifications to your phone about things they think are general interest.

The most recent one I received was about the Share a Sale thing or whatever that is called.  I still got that one on my phone even though the only notifications I'm signed up for from etsy are notices of a sale or convo.

I had every notification turned off in the app except for sales and messages. I just checked and it seems etsy has added new notification options in the app since I installed and turned most off. The new ones are turned 'on' by default. The new ones I'm seeing are "general news and education about selling on etsy" and "etsy launches a new feature  for my shop". Maybe check your app notification settings and be sure that any new ones are turned off.

I have every notification switched off apart from sales, messages  & reviews yet I still get almost daily ‘tips’ notifications. Even tried enabling then disabling. Made no difference.

I have only messages, sales and review notifications enabled, but I am still getting almost daily spam from the etsy app. Surely this is against Apple's ToS?

@CassiopeiaYarns: "... but I am still getting almost daily spam from the etsy app." Do you mean SPAM from Etsy itself or SPAM from other accounts though the Etsy Messaging System?

This has also been bothering me. Every notification setting is off, with the exception of sales and still I get notifications to my phone from etsy about things they think I will find interesting. I don't find any of it interesting, of course.
