When it comes to notifications from websites, I've had my fair share. There are instances where I'm just browsing a site, and suddenly a pop-up appears: "Allow notifications," and I accidentally click "Allow."

There have also been times when I actually wanted the updates, only to regret it later because the browser kept harassing me with random alerts, news flashes, and (worst of all) sketchy ads.

Website notifications can quickly go from helpful to seriously annoying. They interrupt your workflow, hang all over your screen, and sometimes even come from sites you barely remember visiting. Fortunately, Firefox makes it easy to take back control.

In this guide, learn how to get those website notifications from Firefox for good.

How to stop website notifications on Firefox

Step 1: Launch the Firefox browser and click on the menu at the top right and select Settings.

Step 2: Click Privacy and Security on the left.

Step 3: Scroll down to Permissions and click on Settings next to Notifications.

Step 4: Expand the drop-down menu next to the site you want to disable notification for. Select Block, then Save changes.

Conclusion

Turning off website notifications doesn’t just reduce clutter; it also stops those sneaky sites from bugging you when you least expect it. Whether you’re cleaning up past mistakes or just prefer a quieter browsing experience, Firefox gives you all the tools to manage notifications your way.

And if you ever change your mind, you can always revisit your settings and allow them in again.
