While exploring the Notes app, I came across a handy feature that can provide you the needed peace of mind from random alerts. Haven’t guessed it as yet? You can now hide alerts from any shared notes in iOS 11 on your iPhone and iPad.
By default, you get notifications whenever anyone makes changes in the shared notes. It keeps you easily updated about the latest changes. But what if you find the constant alerts a bit annoying? No problem! Finally, there is a way to put them away.
How to Invite Friends to Make Changes in Your Notes
One thing you need to know that you are able to disable alerts only from the shared notes. Hence, you need to create a shared note, if you haven’t already.
Step #1. Launch Notes app on your iOS device.
Step #2. Next, you need to either open an existing shared note or create a new one. In this test, I’m going to create a new note. Tap on the create button.
Step #3. Now, you have to tap on the contact button at the top right corner.
Step #4. Now, you have to choose the medium through which you wish to invite your friend in the share sheet. In this test, I’m going to select Messages app; add a comment and send the invitation.
Step #1. Launch Notes app on your iOS device.
Step #2. Now, open the shared note you have just created.
Step #3. Next, tap on the contact button at the top right corner.
Step #4. Finally, Turn On the switch next to Hide Alerts.
To remove access; Tap on the Name → Tap on Remove Access.
In case you want to Stop Sharing the note; Tap on Stop Sharing and confirm.
