How do I turn off notifications from Handy?

We'll explore the steps involved in disabling notifications from Handy, ensuring a more peaceful and focused digital experience.

Steps to Turn off Notifications From Handy

Follow these steps to turn off notifications from Handy:

1. Launch the Handy App

The first step is launching the app on your device. Locate the Handy icon and tap on it to open the application. Ensure you're logged in to your Handy account to access the necessary settings. Some consumers think the Handy app is more convenient than the website due to its user-friendly nature. It's also free to download and install and doesn't require frequent updates. 

2. Access Account Settings

Once you've launched the Handy app, navigate to the account settings. Find this by tapping your profile picture or username, which you can usually find in the app's interface's top right corner.

Look for "Settings" and select it. This opens up various options, from which you should choose "Account Settings." 

3. Locate the Notifications Section

There are various options and preferences for your Handy account within the account settings. Look for the section section labelled "Notifications," which controls the communication notification channel and the types of available notifications. Tap on this section to proceed to the next step.

4. Customize Notification Preferences

In the notifications section, the available options let you customize your notification preferences. Choose which notifications you want to turn off. Handy has various categories to choose from, such as job updates, messages and promotions. Not all these notifications are relevant to you; if you don't do something about it, you'll continue receiving them.

5. Disable Unwanted Notifications

Review the list of notification categories and select the ones you wish to turn off. Depending on the app's update, you may be able to toggle switches on or off, or you may need to deselect specific options.

Take your time to carefully review each category and turn off notifications you find unnecessary or disruptive. If you want a notification to be turned off, disable all the channels involved. This includes SMS, email and app pop-up notifications of the selected notification type. 

6. Save Changes

After customizing your notification preferences:

  • Save the changes.
  • Confirm all changes are desirable and check you've included everything.
  • Consider going through all options to determine if you need to make an adjustment. Once you're satisfied, you can exit the page.

This ensures that your updated preferences will be implemented and notifications are turned off accordingly.

7. Confirm Changes

To ensure your notification settings have been successfully updated, exit "Account Settings" and return to the main Handy interface. Take a moment to verify the notifications you've disabled are no longer appearing. You may need to wait a short while or refresh the app for the changes to take effect.

If you still receive notifications after following the correct steps, contact customer support for assistance.

Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for Handy Problems?

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Comcast in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What do I do if my Xfinity TV or internet is out? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
