Notifications from any, third party, app. You can keep your phone in your pocket and still know what’s going on. Stay up-to-date on your incoming WhatsApp messages, know when someone's calling you, or read any of the other notifications from any app on your iPhone.

First of all - it is amazing how I can use Messenger app on my MacBook because I wouldn't like to have an iPhone and laptop at the same time, since they are all connected to the same account where we can communicating like iMessage, Messenger, WhatsApp, etc. Honestly, once this issues fixed for not receiving any notification (because I am deaf.
To view notifications that you missed, such as calendar alerts or FaceTime calls, click Notifications at the top of Notification Center. To open a notification in the app that sent it, click the notification. The notification is then removed from Notification Center.

How To Get Notifications Back

Hi,

iMessages are Addressed to either the iPhone Number or the Apple ID.

This can mean that ones sent to the iPhone Number are only 'answered' in the form of the 'Delivered' and 'Read' back to the sender.

The iPhone will display the Apple ID iMessages but not give those 'replies' out if the Mac is asleep.

It can be helped though if both devices are set to the same Send From ID as this, over time, means all your contacts reply to the same ID (or Number).

Both Devices can be set to show Notifications.

Alerts stay visible until dismissed on the Mac version.

So does the iPhone but you can also choose to display the summary on the iPhone.

When the Mac is asleep is is disconnected from the Internet.

You will not see iMessages (or any other sort) until the app is connected again.

With macOS®, app notifications became an integral part of our lives. We get notified about upcoming events, scheduled meetings, emails, Facebook messages, birthdays, and websites we accidentally subscribed to.

Don’t get me wrong, notifications are extremely useful and help optimize workflow.

But what if sometimes we need quiet time to focus on important tasks, avoid distractions, give a presentation, or simply sleep? How to turn off all the Mac® notifications?

I’ll cover the steps needed to stop getting app notifications in macOS, either all at once or one by one.

1. Disable All Distractions with an App

The easiest way to disable all notifications on Mac is to use Parallels Toolbox. Toolbox is a Swiss-Army knife for MacOS that brings convenience of smartphones to desktop, which allows you not only to switch to Do Not Disturb mode on the fly, but also keep your focus with Presentation Mode that Instantly disables those embarrassing pop-ups or bouncing icons.

The application automatically detects when additional displays are connected and prevent any distractions to occur. Additionally you can quickly get ready for a presentation with easy access to hide a messy desktop or lock screen when you’re done with work.

Here are just a few of other 30+ amazing features of Toolbox:

Download Video – Grab music and videos from Youtube, Vimeo or Facebook and watch them offline.

Clean Drive and Free Memory – Free up extra disk space and keep your Mac optimized for the best performance.

Take Screenshots or Record a Video with a single click for quick cut-and-paste jobs.

You can download Toolbox and try it out for free here (no registration needed).

2. Pause Notifications from Notification Center

To quickly stop receiving notifications until midnight, do the following:

Click on the Notification Center icon in the menu bar.
Swipe down until you see the Do Not Disturb label.
Switch on Do Not Disturb mode.
Alternatively, hold down the Option key while you click the Notification Center icon.

When Do Not Disturb is on, the Notification Center icon on the right is dimmed. During that time, the notifications arrive silently in Notification Center until midnight or the scheduled time.

**3. Enable Do Not Disturb for Your Preferred Amount of Time**

Mac users can specify when they don’t want to be disturbed—as well as set how apps show notifications—with Notifications System Preferences.

To turn off notifications for your preferred time, do the following:

From the Apple Menu in the top left corner, open System Preferences.
Select Notifications.
Stop notifications during the specific time range, when the display is sleeping, or when you’re mirroring the screen.

4. Disable Safari Notifications

Push-up notifications in Safari are a relatively new feature, but more and more websites are offering them. Usually, a user voluntarily subscribes to a website’s notifications from a pop-up window. Sometimes, however, it happens accidentally.

To disable unwanted notifications from a website, do the following:

Open Safari and click Safari -> Preferences in the top menu bar.
Open the Websites tab.
Select Notifications on the left-side menu.
Choose which website notifications you want to disable.

Hint: if you need to uninstall apps, it’s not recommended to drag them to the trash as different applications tend to leave lots of unwanted files on you hard drive. It’s best to use a dedicated uninstaller tool, like Toolbox Uninstall Apps. You can download Toolbox and try it out for free here.

5. Turn Off Updates Notifications

The App Store in macOS pushes update notifications for installed apps whenever they become available. To turn them off, you can now simply do the following:

Click on the Apple menu in the top bar.
Open System Preferences.
Find the App Store.
Turn off the “Automatically check for updates” option.

That covers all the steps for turning off notifications on your Mac. Make sure to turn them on again when you’re done with your project so you don’t miss any important notifications!
