I would be thrown off as well if I got a notification while on a call. You can turn this off. Go to Message+. Tap on the Menu Key in the upper left corner. Tap on Settings. Tap on Advanced at the bottom of the screen. Uncheck Notifications during call.

Settings---Sound & notification---under Notifications select Interruptions and you can set it to Priority only. If you have no notifications set as Priority then you shouldn't get notifications while in a call.

Notifications can be frustrating when they interrupt calls psf2835 Lets work towards a resolution to stop notifications. What type of notifications are still making the device vibrate while on a call? What make and model phone are you using? Is this something that recently started? If so, when did this start?

It's the LG V10. If I'm on a call and another call comes in it keeps vibrating and beeps. Text messages, (using messages+) keep beeping.  It has always done it. Trying to figure out how to stop it. I don't have any priorities set for notifications.

That cured the message+ interruption.How to I turn off, guess you would call it "call waiting" when another call comes in and keeps interfering with present call?  TY

tried all this.  All notifications still come through and interrupt calls.  At my wits end.  I contacted Samsung but hear nothing from them.  This is so annoying, Im thinking of getting a new phone.  But that is what they want us to do.
