Use this interactive demo to learn how to disable LinkedIn notifications in just a few clicks.

Quick summary

To turn off LinkedIn notifications, navigate to Settings & Privacy and open the Notifications section, where you can toggle off individual notification categories like Jobs, Network, Messages, and more. This gives you full control over which LinkedIn alerts you receive across all notification types.

Steps

Click your profile picture in the top-right corner of the LinkedIn feed.
Select Settings & Privacy from the dropdown menu.
In the left sidebar, click on Notifications.
Browse categories like Jobs, Network, News, Profile, and Messages, then click each category and toggle off the notifications you don't want to receive.
Toggle off all notification types under each category to stop receiving any notifications from LinkedIn.
Once all unwanted toggles are off, your LinkedIn notification preferences are saved and applied.

📌 Why this matters

Managing LinkedIn notifications helps professionals stay focused by reducing inbox clutter and unwanted email or push alerts. LinkedIn's notification settings allow granular control over categories like Jobs, Network updates, Messages, and Events, so users can silence only what's irrelevant to them. For users overwhelmed by constant LinkedIn alerts, disabling notifications through Settings & Privacy is the fastest way to reclaim attention without deactivating their account. This feature is especially valuable for job seekers, recruiters, and active networkers who want to engage on their own terms.
