What is the Block during game feature in Game Booster

Last Update date : Apr 29. 2023

If you’re receiving calls, messages and app notifications when playing gaming apps, you can turn on the "Block during game" feature in Game Booster. In the app, you can block specific features of the device that may interfere with your gameplay.

“Block during game” will block certain notifications whenever you have a game opened, so you won't have to worry about being interrupted. However, keep in mind that some notifications cannot be blocked and will always appear during games.

Please note: Check if your device's software and related apps are updated to the latest version to avoid experiencing any problems when following the recommendations below.

How to set up Block during game feature

You can set up the “Blocking during game” feature while playing a game. 

Step 1. During a game, tap the Game Booster icon at bottom left.

Step 2. Click the Settings button.

Step 3. Select Block during game option.

Step 4. You can tap the switch to enable or disable notifications while gaming.


Please note:

  • By turning on the switch next to “Notifications”, you will prevent certain notifications and alerts from appearing when you're playing a game. Remember that not all alerts will be blocked, such as alarms and certain app notifications, for example those from Facebook Messenger.
 
  • The Game Booster icon is located in the lower left corner if you hold your mobile device vertically, or in the lower right corner if you hold your mobile device horizontally. If the Game Booster icon on the navigation bar is hidden, bring it up by swiping up from the bottom of the screen (if you're holding your mobile device vertically) or swiping left from the bottom of the screen on the right side of the screen (if you're holding your mobile device horizontally).
 
  • By using the appropriate switches, it is also possible to block the automatic brightness function or the Bixby app while you are playing.
