Android 15 to Come With a Notification Cooldown Feature

Android 15 is set to introduce a new feature known as Notification Cooldown. When Google unveiled the Android 15 developers preview earlier this year, one notable addition was the “Notification Cooldown” feature. As it’s name implies, this feature serves a straightforward purpose: to mitigate the influx of notifications from a single app by allowing users to cool down their notification flow. However, little has been said about this feature since it’s initial mention.

Now, Notification Cooldown has resurfaced, indicating it’s likely inclusion in the stable update. This feature is currently accessible in the Android 15 beta update 1.2, suggesting ongoing testing by Google. According to the feature description, it aims to “gradually lower the notification volume when many successive notifications are received from the same app”.

This functionality proves beneficial, as it eliminates the need to set your smartphone to silent mode when inundated with a barrage of notifications. While disabled by default, users have the option to enable it within their device settings. Once activated, Android 15 will gradually reduce notification volume upon the reception of excessive notifications from a single app. However, one drawback of this feature is it’s inability to halt phone vibrations during notification reception. Hopefully, future updates will address this issue.

Additionally, Android 15 introduces another noteworthy feature called “vibrate when unlocked”. This feature, when enabled, prompts the phone to vibrate upon unlocking the screen. While this feature remains disabled and hidden within the settings by default, users have the option to enable it if desired. Essentially, this feature prevents the phone from vibrating when locked or in your pocket, particularly amidst a flurry of notifications from the same app.

Android 15 represents the next major Android update, boasting a plethora of features and enhancements. As is customary, many of these upgrades are under the hood, with Google prioritizing security and privacy features.
