Facebook Notification won't automatically disappear - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

This problem did not occur on my Note 4, but when I would check my Facebook Notifications on my PC, naturally, they would disappear from my phone. However, with my Note 9, after viewing all of my Facebook Notifications, there would still be a blank Facebook notification, in otherwords, the notification would point towards Facebook, but is not linked to any events/posts/mentions. It's a bit annoying to have to do an extra swipe, whereas before with my old phone, I did not have to worry about this.
Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how do I fix it?

Facebook notifications, don't want 'em

How can I tell which application is actually creating notifications from facebook?
In the official facebook app's settings, I've turned off notifications, but I still get them. I also have bloo, and a few other facebook apps installed, but as far as I can tell, none of them are running when I get the notifications.
As they come in fairly often, it can get annoying with the constant buzzing and/or bleeping.
(On a related note: going to the item in the menubar dropdown takes me to the official app, to the notifications page... Which I then close. And then, without any actual new notifications coming in, it alerts me again shortly thereafter. Annoying. Halp!)

Disruptive notifications

Went from a Note 8 to the Note 9, anyone else notice that some notifications are super disruptive and find the setting to resolve? Maybe I'm just missing something, but seems like notifications like facebook for example are awful.
Doesn't seem to matter if it's youtube, VLC, Poweramp, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc. If I get a facebook notification, as it's the worst, it will pause my currently playing movie/music/video for a good 2-3 seconds and then resume playing. I didn't have this on the Note 8 and it's driving me nuts lol.
I figure it has to be a os setting issue (as all notifications do this) but I can't find a way to change it other than disabling all notifications all together.
I'm having the same issues. Was hoping this thread wasn't empty.
I was having the same problem. If you go into Settings > Notifications, you can manage notifications for each app. I don't remember for sure, but I think just about all of my apps' notifications were ON by default! I shut them all of, then re-enabled just the ones on wanted! Sometimes you individual apps will also have different settings for notifications, too. But at least going into settings allows you to just shut them all down for an app. Thank goodness! No more Facebook notifications! Just be careful what you shut off. I shut off messages by mistake. I wondered why I wasn't getting notified when I got a text.

Facebook notifications?

Hey people, anyone has Facebook notifications fully working? I mean on the Fb app... I dont get the number badge when I get Likes for instance. Only if I open the app, otherwise its "neat and clean". I only get notified for the new comments and thats kinda it. Do you have all of them working?
PS: please do not tell me to activate notifications, or the "show the badge with numbers" from the homescreen settings, because all are active, I am not a novice user .
Thanks!
I have that issue as well. Also, Flipboard widget never refreshes properly. This happened on my S9+ as well. I wonder if setting up the phone connected to previous phone copying screwed something up.
Neh man, it didnt screw anything up...unfortunately samsung screwed smth up... I have to use Microsoft Launcher, which can be set up to act and look exactly like Samsung launcher, BUT gives me notifications for Fb and also badges dont disappear when you clear the notification bar. But I dont like to use 3rd party bull..it, instead of what the phone comes with... and I thought maybe someone has a solution or found out smth new...
Try to use different launcher as said above. But my suggestion is to turn off notifications and backup updates for facebook at all - it will save up to 4 hours for the battery
Coming from the S7 Edge, I don't truly care for this but I didn't have this since S7E and I just noticed it's not showing on my Note9 either. Might be Samsung UI related? I have noticed every now and then I do get the notification number on Messenger but not the Facebook app.

Notifications on my Note9 are freaking the hell out

Sporadically since I got the Note9, notifications have been acting up. Today it kicked into overdrive so I'm hoping someone knows what's going on.
For Twitter, I get notifications from specific users that stack in one column in my notifications. I've never had an issue with these, but today, after I tap them and view the tweet, a few seconds later they reappear in the bar like I never accessed them.
Instagram and Facebook keep showing the same notifications, hours after I view them. For instance, a friend posted a picture at 1pm today and I viewed it and the notification disappeared. Then, just now at 4pm, it popped up and notified me about the same picture again, along with 4 others I had viewed/cleared throughout the day. Instagram acts almost identically.
Android Messages will repeat notifications when I open the actual app. So if I receive a text, next time I open the app, that text will pop up as a notification complete with the sound and visuals.
I thought it could be issues with the individual apps, but with the frequency increasing and it happening with multiple apps from different developers I'm thinking it may be the phone or OneUI. Does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing this?

Major issue with delayed push notifications

I have been experiencing delayed notifications on my Note 9, mainly with Facebook Messenger, but it applies also to the Line messenger app and Outlook, so it's not confined to one app. It's probably just that I use Messenger often, so notice it more with Messenger
The symptoms are a random and sometimes very long delay between sending a message and receiving a notification, measured in minutes to hours. Sometimes, I'll receive a bunch of notifications from multiple apps when opening the screen.
Other times, even opening the screen does not cause me to receive notifications. I can be actively using the phone and there will still be a random delay on notifications.
For example, I was using my phone earlier to web browse and my girlfriend sent me a message. I did not get a notification. After 30 minutes, she called and asked me why I was not reading her message. Opening the messenger app, I saw the message there (as well as the time at which it was sent) and about one minute later the notification came in.
Similarly, I can be using the phone and someone will video call me on Messenger. I don't get a notification until I actually open the app (I know this since my other phone that has the Messenger app installed on it rings, so I know I have an incoming call).
I can test notification delay by using one account from a computer to send a message to the account linked to my phone, so I know exactly when the message was sent. But the notification delay, even while using the phone actively, is still present and measured in minutes to hours, whereas the other phone receives the notification immediately.
It is NOT doze mode at fault. I have explicitly disabled ALL battery optimizations as well as turning off doze mode with ADB at boot time.
It's not bluetooth, even though some users in other threads have pointed to bluetooth being at fault.
I have cleared cache, uninstalled all updates for Google Play Services and Google Play and reinstalled them.
The phone itself seems capable of receiving push notifications correctly. I can use the push notification tester app to setup a high priority notification for, let's say 10 minutes from now. Then I shut the screen. After 5 minutes, I send a message to my phone with Facebook Messenger. No notification is received for this message.
After 10 minutes, the Push Notification Tester app triggers its notification correctly, which is received immediately. And then shortly afterwards, the notification comes in from Facebook Messenger.
Clearing cache and data on Messenger doesn't make any difference, and as I said in the first paragraph, it does not appear to be the app, since other apps are affected.
This is driving me crazy. I miss out on messages and important emails.
Is anyone aware of any solution to this problem? I just see a whole bunch of snake oil remedies on the net, but no real solution.
It appears to be something that might be related to notification priority, judging by the behaviour of the Push Notification Tester app, but this is just speculation on my part
