Hello you knowledgeable people,

 

please can someone tell me why I am now receiving notifications of sms and Whatsapp messages with a little round messenger style chat head, and when I click this it opens into a minimised version of the window?

 

Is it a setting I have inadvertently activated? How do I change it back please?

 

I am very frustrated with it!

Hi there. To turn of the Smart Pop-up view feature, go to Settings > Notifications. Scroll to the bottom then it should say, 'Looking for something else?' in that section tap 'Smart pop-up view' then turn off all the apps on the list. Hope that Helps!

yes! that's it! thank you! 

 

I don't even remember activating these but that doesn't mean I didn't, haha!  

 

I'm so grateful - what an awful 'feature' that was.

 

Thank you again,
Suzi

GENIUS, thanks, that answered my problem as well... along with the constant notifications on unread messages every 3 mins. 😎
