Is there a way? They're kinda annoying. I don't want texts popping up while I'm watching videos.

As above. Select "When device is locked" - Don't show notifications at all.

I do not think that is what he means. He is talking about if you are in an app and the message appears as a banner up top, similar to IOS. I do not think you can turn that off.
The notifications use to appear as an icon in the status bar, now they are a banner in addition to the icon.
Does that apply specifically to "messages"? I just sent myself an email from my PC while browsing pictures on my Nexus 5; I heard the notification sound and got the GMail icon in the notification bar, but no banner of any kind. And that is with Notifications enabled.
It must be. I use messages and just tested it
If I send an email to myself while the phone is locked, I do get the lockscreen banner when I turn the phone on...
Hangouts does it too.
Looks like it depends upon the app. Hangouts does it, like you say. OTOH, GMail / Inbox / GroupMe only show icons. I'd assume that the SDK allows an application developer to specify how the notification shows up when the phone is not locked.
For the Hangouts shade, you can slide it up to get it off the screen.
Hi I'm having the same problem I want to turn off the whatsapp preview that appears when my screen is on but I still want to receive a notification that I have received a message.
Pop up is off in the whatsapp settings.
