How to disable heads up notifications

[XOXO2510]

I FOUND A SOLUTION WITHOUT HAVING TO INSTALL ANY EXTRA APPS!

So we have all been getting the annoying heads up notifications that we don't want appearing on our phone when it's unlocked right?! Well I found a solution after playing round with my phone. First I changed the notification settings in my apps for example WhatsApp, Facebook messenger etc by going to settings > notifications > select esch app you want to stop heads up from > allow notifications > show silently. Toggle this to on.

Now wait I've not finished, then go back into settings > accessibility > notification reminder and turn this on. Then turn sound on and vibrate on and select the apps you wish to receive notifications from. Then there you have it , this stops the heads up but then it reminds you 1 minute later that you have a notification! I think it's even quicker than 1 minute. I'm sure a 1 minute wait won't hurt to stop those heads up!

You can also just use ADB to turn them off globally. You can get the proper usb drivers for Samsung from Android USB Driver for Windows | SAMSUNG Developers
