- You can also turn off time sensitive notifications from the notification itself. When you receive a notification that is marked as time sensitive, swipe left on it and tap on Manage. Then, tap on Turn Off Time Sensitive Notifications. This will disable time sensitive notifications for the app that sent the notification.
- You can also customize which apps can send you time sensitive notifications in each focus mode. When you create or edit a focus mode, tap on Allowed Notifications and select Custom. Then, tap on Add App and choose the apps that you want to allow time sensitive notifications from. You can also remove any apps that you don't want to allow time sensitive notifications from by tapping on the minus sign next to them.
- You can also adjust how long time sensitive notifications stay on your lock screen. By default, they stay for an hour, but you can change this by going to Settings > Notifications > Lock Screen > Time Sensitive Notifications and selecting a different duration, such as 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 2 hours.
