Lets say I'm reading an article from a website on my phone (GS6) and I get a text message.
A preview of the message drops down at the top of the screen. Is it possible to disable this "Heads Up" feature for the S6?

This is part of Android notifications, all my phones have done this. I think to get rid of that, you'd have to disable notifications completely.

You can't get rid of them unless you're rooted, I did it on my S5. They're so annoying.

Edit: if you're only worried about the messages app it can be disabled but globally they can only be disabled if you're rooted.
