  • Google Messages could soon get a new notification snoozing feature.
  • We’ve managed to enable the feature before the rollout to give you an early look.
  • It will let you snooze notifications for specific chats for 1 hour, 8 hours, 24 hours, or always.

Google is developing a handy new notification snoozing feature for its Messages app. We first spotted mentions of the feature in a teardown earlier this month. Now, we’ve managed to get it working in the latest Google Messages build (version messages.android_20250420_01_RC00.phone.openbeta_dynamic) to give you an early look at how the app will let you snooze chat notifications.
