    You can adjust it in settings so it only sends you notifications when someone DMs you or specifically mentions you in can.

      I don’t let anything give notifications that aren’t SMS or phone.

      I even turned SMS notifications off for a while.

      My phone has been on silent for like 7 years.

            Maybe you meant USA, Mexico is part of North America and WhatsApp reigns here, sadly.

              Edited! I did mean America. Google seems to indicate that Mexico does use SMS as the primary function of a cell phone for about 30% of cell phones, but that WhatsApp is the most popular messaging service. Canadians use SMS.

            Aren’t SMS the least secure messaging system?

            Also I’m pretty sure if I send one of those to any relatives would just never reply back lol.

            The only use I give them is when an app requires some verification with SMS text.

      I’m sure there is but I never bothered, just disabled the notifications in my android settings. People who know me know that if they wanna contact me they can call or text so it’s never really been an issue.
