How do I stop email receipt notifications?

Q. I've just installed the Yahoo Email App on my Android phone and I hate that it notifies me whenever I receive an email - I'll check my email when I want to read it! How do I turn this off so my phone isn't using up the battery by flashing all day when I'm not carrying my phone?

A. Hi there,

If you want to learn how to adjust the notification settings in the Yahoo! Mail app for Android, the following steps should get you to where you need to go:

To turn notifications on or off:

1. Tap the Menu button in the top left of the screen.
2. Tap Settings.
3. Tap Account Settings.
4. Tap Notification Settings.

In "Notification Settings" screen, you can:

Choose Sound -- Select notification sounds
Use Vibrate -- Toggle On/Off
Show in Status Bar -- Toggle On/Off

I hope this helps.

Cheers!
