Do this under Settings > System > Notifications & actions. Add, remove and rearrange them to get exactly what you need at your fingertips. Now you can customize the Quick actions that appear inside Action Center. Note: apps will only appear in the list once they’ve sent at least one notification If you really don’t want to see them at all, you can turn notifications off.

Go to Settings > System > “Notifications & actions” and select an app from the list. The default is three, but you can select 1, 3, 5, 10, 20. Select how may notifications you want to see for each app in Action Center without the need to expand. To do this turn off notification banners under Settings > System > Notifications & actions > Select an app from the list. If you don’t want to see notification banners for a particular app you have the option to still get the notifications directly into your Action Center and just see the app logo animate in the taskbar. The app with the most recent notification will show up at the top of each priority group, so you never miss the latest. Prioritize the notifications that are most important to youįrom Settings > System > Notifications & actions > Select an app from the list and pick the priority level that you want.

Alternatively control them directly from Action Center by clicking the settings icon (or tap and hold) on the notification itself and selecting the top option. You can do this from your phone by going into Cortana Settings > Manage Notifications > Select your device. More of what you want, less of what you don’tĬontrol which apps can forward notifications and which ones you rather keep in your phone
