ATT HTC ONE notifications

[wakeupdecide]

Ok, so all of a sudden I'm getting notifications for strange things like cars and games in my notification bar. It opens up in internet and is driving me crazy, has anyone else seen this? How do I make it stop?

Just so you can see, it's the green plus sign in the upper left corner on the first picture, then the red star on the second picture. Thanks!

Sounds like an app you installed is doing this. I'd look back to see what you installed recently and individually remove them to find the culprit.

Doesn't have to remove them. Can go into Settings>Apps> then find the app and uncheck "Show Notifications.'

You're right, it was a stupid dog whistle app. Thank you!

True, but any app that behaves this way is one I consider to be not worth having installed.

Meh, I have a pretty nice Blackhawks live wallpaper that did this. Uncheck the box and it goes away with no ill effects.

Don't mind a developer trying to make a little money on his or her hard work.

I don't either! As long as they offer a small paid version of the app for an option to opt out of the ads forever!

This^ Just because you hide notifications doesn't mean you aren't getting them pushed so far as I understand things.

Air Push Detector will find any apps pushing spam.
