How to stop receiving Google Plus Email and SMS notifications

I joined Google Plus and started receiving an email for every single notification and it got really annoying, really fast.  Apparently this is how the service comes by default so I’ll show you how to easily turn these things off and on.

Step 1

On the top right corner of Google, click on your name.

Step 2

Click on Account Settings
Click on Account Settings

Step 3

Now on the left side of the screen click on Google+

Uncheck all the boxes to stop receiving email and SMS notifications. Your settings will be saved automatically.

There’s no need to click “Save” anywhere because your settings are automatically updated as you uncheck boxes.

If you don’t see a phone column like this picture above, it’s because Google doesn’t have your phone number.  The option to add it is on the same page, above these notification settings.

Hope that helps!
