Last Updated on June 9, 2022 by Bestusefultips

Do you want to get pop up notifications on WhatsApp? Here’s how to turn on or turn off pop-up notifications on WhatsApp Android devices. You can see a pop-up notification on your Android lock screen when receiving a new message on WhatsApp if set “always show pop-up”. You can enable high-priority notifications to show previews of notifications at the top of the screen. You can change popup notifications settings on WhatsApp Android or iPhone devices. By default, set the “No popup” option selected, so you can’t get any popup notification on your phone lock screen or home screen. If you have the latest updated WhatsApp version (2.20.157 or later), pop-up notifications are no longer available on your Android 12/Android 11 stock OS.
