If you want to get a notification every time you receive a message you have to click on Always Show Popup which will bring the message window anywhere on your screen even when you are browsing or playing a game which can get irritating sometimes, mainly because of the number of groups which we are added to.
If you want to get notifications when you turn on your Screen to check for notifications or time then you can click on “Only when Screen On” i feel this is the best option to save your battery and not disturb you, until and unless you have some conversation which cannot be missed.
And if you are fed up of the regular notifications which are disturbing you, this can be turned Off easily by following the same steps and selecting the “No Popup” option in the list.
And as you can see in the image, your messages will appear on your home screen as a Notification in a popup box, but it can get awkward when someone is using your phone and these messages pop up which can let anyone read them out and you have to hastily take the phone back.
