Put a notification off until later
Snooze notifications, step by step on Samsung and Pixel phones.
Why it helps
Some notifications need you, just not right now. Snoozing hides one for a while and brings it back, so it isn't forgotten.
What you'll notice
The notification disappears and comes back at the time you chose.
When to use it
When a notification arrives that you can't deal with yet, then snooze it for an hour instead of swiping it away.

Labels can differ. Menu names and their order vary between models and can change with a system update. If a step doesn't match your phone, search Settings for the feature name or one of its other names: Remind me later, Snooze.
