How to stop private relay notifications

private relay connects and disconnects CONSTANTLY. im getting 20+ notifications every day and its driving me crazy.

Apple, PLEASE enable us to silence these notifications as we can for every other vpn app on the app store.

It's clear you didn't read the original question - it was about *notifications* not about private relay. I have this problem as well, and it's extremely annoying.

Mac user here (as well as iPhone user). Some option to turn off Private Relay notifications (but keep the service active!) would be great, just like I have the ability to turn off app notifications while keeping the app on my device. I'm frequently on unstable public Wi-Fi, and every time I get disconnected and reconnected I have to dismiss the notification twice.

Yes, this won't happen because the annoying banner alert is intended to be annoying so that you turn the service off. When the service is on you do not receive any alerts because there is a financial benefit to Apple to have your activity tracked. It's annoying on purpose because by using this option you're costing them revenue.

Apple is killing me with their nonstop notifications. Ironically I switched to a Mac 25 years ago because PCs were flooded with popups. Now Apple is flooding us with unnecessary popups that cannot be disabled.

finally some one grasp concept just want ability to turn off notifications, & keep the app private relay. Hope is updated soon jooz10 that’s annoying

Speaking of feature requests, how about a "Not Helpful" button?

Hello Jooz10,

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Based on your post, you'd like to stop iCloud Private Relay notifications on your iPhone.

You came from the best resource for your concern: About iCloud Private Relay

It states, "You can turn off iCloud Private Relay in Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Private Relay."

Make sure if you're using a VPN or security software, to disable them and restart the device, as these may be blocking the connection.

In case you have a profile set up preventing you from disabling the service: Install or remove configuration profiles on iPhone

(If this is a business or educational device, then we'd recommend contacting your IT department for further steps.)

Should it persist and you can't disable the service, then it would be best to contact Apple directly: Get Support

Wishing you well, take care.

The problem is these aren't notifications like a text message or an email, they are a warning message. Putting it in Control Center would not be sufficient as many people would never see it. But you can suggest it to Apple here: Feedback - iPhone - Apple

I never thought Apple Communities would be a loitering hole for loonies. Are the Discord and InfoWars servers down?

Hey Jooz10,

Did you follow the last paragraph under section, 'If a website or network doesn’t work with Private Relay' here: About iCloud Private Relay

That should help you to turn off Private Relay just for a specific Wi-Fi network or cellular plan.

If that wasn't what you were hoping for specifically, then we'd suggest to provide Apple with any feedback you may have on this service here: Feedback - iCloud

Have a lovely day, cheers.
