Where to find Lemon8 notification settings in TikTok

Lemon8 notifications appear in TikTok because the two apps are owned by the same company and share notification systems. To stop them, you go into TikTok's settings, not into a separate Lemon8 app — even if you don't use Lemon8, TikTok can still send you notifications about it.

Open TikTok and tap the profile icon in the bottom right corner. Then tap the three horizontal lines (the menu icon) in the top right. Scroll down and tap Settings and privacy. From there, tap Notifications. You'll see a list of notification types, and Lemon8 will be one of them if you've received those notifications before.

The exact wording may say "Lemon8" or "Recommended for you" or "New on Lemon8" depending on what type of notification TikTok sent. Look for any entry that mentions Lemon8 or that you don't recognize as a core TikTok feature.

Key Takeaways

  • Lemon8 notifications come through TikTok's notification system, so you turn them off inside TikTok settings, not in a separate app.
  • Go to your TikTok profile, then Settings and privacy, then Notifications to see all notification types including Lemon8.
  • You can turn off Lemon8 notifications without deleting either app or affecting your TikTok feed.
  • If you don't see a Lemon8 option in Notifications, TikTok hasn't sent you that type of notification yet, so there's nothing to turn off.

Turning off the Lemon8 toggle

Once you're in the Notifications section, look for the entry labeled "Lemon8" or anything that says "Recommended for you" with Lemon8 mentioned. Tap on it to open the settings for that specific notification type.

You'll see a toggle switch next to "Push notifications" or similar wording. Tap the toggle to turn it off. The switch will change color (usually from blue to gray) to show it's now disabled. That's all you need to do — TikTok will stop sending you Lemon8 notifications when ready.

If you see multiple Lemon8-related entries (for example, one for "New on Lemon8" and another for "Lemon8 recommendations"), turn off the toggle for each one. Some users report seeing more than one notification type for the same app.

What happens after you turn them off

Turning off Lemon8 notifications does not delete the Lemon8 app, change your TikTok feed, or affect any other notifications. You'll still see TikTok notifications for likes, comments, messages, and followers. Only Lemon8-specific notifications stop.

If you later change your mind, you can turn Lemon8 notifications back on by going to the same Settings > Notifications menu and toggling the switch back on. The setting stays where you left it until you change it again.

If Lemon8 notifications keep coming after you turn them off

Sometimes a toggle appears to be off but notifications still arrive. This usually means TikTok didn't save your change. Go back to Settings > Notifications, find the Lemon8 entry again, and make sure the toggle is actually off (gray, not blue). Tap it once more if it looks like it's still on.

If the toggle is definitely off and you're still getting notifications, close TikTok completely and reopen it. On iPhone, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and swipe TikTok away. On Android, go to Settings > Apps > TikTok and tap "Force stop". Then open TikTok again and check the notification setting one more time.

If notifications still arrive after that, the issue may be with your phone's notification settings rather than TikTok's. Go to your phone's Settings app, find TikTok in the list of apps, and make sure notifications are turned on for TikTok overall — but you can also check if there's a separate toggle for Lemon8 notifications at the phone level. On some phones, you can turn off notifications for specific apps within an app's notification category.

Turning off all TikTok notifications if you want a break

If Lemon8 notifications are part of a larger problem with too many TikTok alerts, you can turn off all notifications at once. In Settings > Notifications, look for a toggle at the very top that says "All notifications" or "Push notifications". Turning this off stops every notification from TikTok, including messages, comments, and likes.

You can also turn off notifications at the phone level. On iPhone, go to Settings > Notifications > TikTok and toggle off "Allow Notifications". On Android, go to Settings > Apps > TikTok > Notifications and toggle off "Show notifications". This stops all TikTok notifications without opening the TikTok app.

Why TikTok sends Lemon8 notifications

TikTok owns Lemon8, a social media app focused on lifestyle content and recommendations. Because the two apps are connected, TikTok uses your account to send you notifications about Lemon8 features, new content, or recommendations to read the app. This is a business decision to promote Lemon8 to TikTok's existing user base.

You don't have to use Lemon8 to receive these notifications — TikTok sends them based on your account status, not your behavior. Turning them off doesn't prevent you from using TikTok or affect your account in any way.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to delete Lemon8 to stop the notifications?

No. You can turn off Lemon8 notifications without uninstalling the app or even having it installed. The notifications come from TikTok's settings, not from Lemon8 itself. If you don't use Lemon8, straightforward turning off the notification toggle in TikTok is enough.

Will turning off Lemon8 notifications affect my TikTok feed or recommendations?

No. Notification settings only control what alerts you receive on your phone. They don't change what content TikTok shows you, your account settings, or how the app works. Your For You page and other feeds stay exactly the same.

Can I turn off Lemon8 notifications on my phone but keep them on my computer?

TikTok notifications are primarily a mobile feature. If you use TikTok on a computer, you typically don't receive push notifications at all. The settings you change in the TikTok app on your phone only affect notifications on that phone.

What if I don't see Lemon8 in my Notifications list?

If there's no Lemon8 entry in Settings > Notifications, TikTok hasn't sent you that type of notification yet. There's nothing to turn off. If you start receiving Lemon8 notifications later, the option will appear in that same menu.

Can I block Lemon8 notifications without going into settings every time?

Once you turn off the toggle in Settings > Notifications, the setting stays off. You don't have to do it again unless you change your mind. TikTok remembers your choice and won't send those notifications unless you turn the toggle back on.
