    Important

    The My Telstra app will automatically lock you out of your account if you enter the wrong password three times in a row.

    The My Telstra app notification settings are set by your device operating system, not within the app.

    Apple users

    1. Go to Settings and select Notifications
    2. To choose when you want most notification previews to appear, tap Show Previews, then select an option – AlwaysWhen Unlocked, or Never. You can override this setting for individual apps
    3. Tap Back, tap an app below Notification Style, then turn Allow Notifications on or off.
      If you turn on Allow Notifications, choose how and where you want the notifications to appear for the app – for example, on the Lock screen or in Notification Centre. You can also set a notification banner style, sound, and badges for many apps.
    4. Tap Notification Grouping, then choose how you want the notifications grouped:
      • By App: All the notifications from the app are grouped together
      • Automatic: The notifications from the app are grouped according to organizing criteria within the app, such as by topic or thread
      • Off: Turn off grouping
         

    Android users

    In your Settings app on your phone:

      • You can turn off all notifications for a listed app
      • To pick specific categories of notifications, tap the app's name
      • To see more apps, tap See all from last 7 days
      • Tap Most recent or Most frequent to sort that way
         

    Tip: If you don't see Recently sent, you're using an older Android version. Instead, select App notifications and select an app you want to manage. You can turn notifications, notification dots, and notification categories on or off. If an app has categories, you can tap a category for more options.
