Hi, there
there is many devices and apps that require them to be running all the time to make them work for example smartbands, they have a notification saying connected, maybe one is fine, but i have 2 apps that require this and have to notification there all the time that I find annoying, is there any way to maybe have them running still but just hide the notifications?
If you're running Nougat, you can slide the notification to either side and open the settings for that app. There, press the encircled A and select the priority of the notification accordingly.
bump, can someone have a look

Hi everyone,
I searched the web for quit a time now, but did not find anything to answer my question:
Is there any way to disable the icons in the notification bar which appear while apps running in background without losing their full funktion?
For example I have an "Anti-Virus Program", "LBE Security Master" an "Tasker" running in Background. There a little Icons shown in the Status-Bar and big notifications when I pull down the notification bar. Of course many apps have an option to disable this, but they tell me that they won´t work right anymore if I would disable that. Since Jelly-Bean, I think, there is a way to disable notifications from every app but same thing here - apps seem not to work right anymore.
Is there a way to get rid of the icons or the big notifications without losing their funktion?
Thanks for answers

Really no one has that problem?
This is a very good forum but sadly in very most cases no one answers...
Hi,
i search it in the web, here and try to make it with Tasker (it's quite difficult for me but every help was apprecieted) don't finding an answer.
I need to lock some notification in the panel. Sometimes I receive important notification in the wrong time (like an important message while i'm busy at work) but accidently I delete it with an unvoluntary swipe. I wont to know if exist a way to lock this notification until I will. No need for reboot-proof but if present I apprecieted either.
For the Tasker way I think to create a permanent notification in the bar called Notification Locker and my will is to receive a list of current notifications e locking the one selected. I think this is impossible with Tasker so I think that the process can be simply to read the text of notification, delete it and create a similar notification (no auto-redirect with click or contexted function, but I don't care). But the problem to create a list of current notification remain (there is a Variable that contain the text of the last notification but is only the last and seems that not all notification go to fill the Variable.
Any tips or maybe an app for this?
Thanks a lot for the help
I've done some searching and I haven't found anything like this. I'm not an Android dev but I think I understand enough about the model to believe my idea possible in some form.
So...
Programs that run constantly require a persistent notification so the system won't kill them. I run Talkatone, Tasker, Light Manager LED Settings which all have the option to run persistent or take a chance and have them killed without a persistent notification. This sucks because the status bar gets cluttered with things that are always there but I don't need to constantly see them. But Android 4.3, which I'm running, does this by design (for largely good reasons, I believe).
Would it be possible to have a program (I'll call it "Watcher") which creates its own persistent notification that then keep tabs on other programs that you want to always run but don't want their persistent notification.
More clearly, say I always want Tasker to run but I don't want its notification. I turn off persistent notifications in Tasker's options then add Tasker to the Watcher's list. Whenever Tasker gets killed by the system due to resources, Watcher notices this and restarts it shortly thereafter. The advantage is that the system can still reclaim resources when it needs them but the notifications don't clutter the status bar.
I am imagining a rich notification where maybe every Watched app's icon is shown in a small square with a number by it showing how many times Watcher had to restart it recently.
Unfortunately, I'm not an Android dev and I've only done enough research to make me think it might be possible. Does this app exist already? Is it impossible? Is it possible enough for me to consider turning this into my first Android project?
Thoughts?
I have an IPcam App called SYSD that keeps 2 annoying icons on the top left of my LG G2 phone, I dont like them at all.
But I need the app to be always on, because it is very important as it should always work, it rings when a motion is detected.
Is there a way to hide these icons without causing an interference in the running app?
Any help? Problem with no solution?
Nothing ?
At all?
You can use something like AOSP Status Bar, but you'll need to root your phone I believe. Any mod that allows you to disable persistent notifications is what you're looking for. There are various options and they're usually specific to your phone model, but that's what you're looking for.
Hello,
in Oreo I could just tap hold the text and disable the notification, iirc. In Pie I just get the info that notifications from this app can't be disabled (System UI). I tried System UI Tuner as well but it didn't work as well.
Did anybody achieve this already?
@ChazzMatt
Could you please drop some knowledge?
I have Do Not Disturb activated at all times so I don't need to be informed about it.
I stayed on stock rooted Oreo, so have no day to day knowledge of LG Pie quirks. Sorry.
However, on a similar note, I reverted back to older version of some apps (My Data Manager being one) -- where newer versions insisted upon putting an icon up in the notification bar area when they are running. That particular app runs all the time and I have a widget on my pull down bar which tells me my monthly data total at any moment. I know it's running in the background, but I don't want to see an icon all the time up in the area where NOTIFICATIONS go. Keeps making me think I have new mail, a new text, something....
Up until about the time Pie came out, I could manually disable the notification bar "badge". With updated versions of the app I could not. So, I reverted to older version from APK Mirror on mine, my wife's, my mother's phones and UNchecked auto update on Google Play for that app.
There's other apps where I stay on older versions for functionality reasons.
Thank you for your insights!
Seems like I should have stayed on Oreo.
On another note I fiddled around with Automagic and was able to hide notifications for the system app System-UI altogether, but that also hides some other notifications I'd like to keep. But it shows that it should be possible. In SystemUI Tuner you can add custom tweaks if you know the right variables and values. Maybe someone knows where one can find the right values.
The solution that I'm using now is setting a custom sleep duration via System UI Tuner to 9999 and only having to worry every few months about it.
Does anybody know what's the maximum duration?
