When I received a new whatsapp message there will be a about 2 second popup near the top of my phone showing me a row of the new received whatsapp text. I want to disable this but unable to do so.

If unable to disable the whatsapp popup, I would like the popup not to display any info, only something like "new whatsapp message received"

Please help. Thanks.

Should also be able to go into Settings>Notifications and scroll down to WhatsApp, disable notifications from there. I've done this a few times with super-active chat groups I'm in.

I have done these "Long press the icon then tap info , scroll to notification tap on message notification" when I reached here, I do not see any text about "pop up" option

Which one to turn off?

I have tried last time, if I switch off the [show notifications] under the Chats header, I will not get any popup and not get any notification in the pull down menu and not get any LED light of notifications. I only want to disable popup.
