Here are 3 ways to get rid of Android Setup notifications:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Connect your phone to Wi-Fi, tap on the Android Setup notification and go through the setup wizard to complete and get rid of it (recommended)<\/li><li>Force Stop and Disable the Android Setup app&nbsp;<\/li><li>Turn off notifications for the Android Setup app&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The Setup Wizard requires a Wi-Fi connection to complete. Many users start their phone with mobile data, typically causing the Android Setup app to remain in the notification bar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to connect to Wi-Fi and restart your phone before tapping on the notification and completing the setup.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"simpletoc-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#what-is-android-setup-app-on-my-phone\">What is Android Setup app on my phone?<\/a>\n\n\n<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"#how-do-i-get-rid-of-android-setup-notifications-on-samsung\">How do I get rid of Android setup notifications on Samsung?<\/a>\n\n<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#is-setup-wizard-a-virus-on-android\">Is Setup Wizard a virus on Android?<\/a>\n\n\n<\/li><li><a href=\"#can-i-disable-android-setup-app\">Can I disable Android setup app?<\/a>\n\n\n<\/li><li><a href=\"#how-do-i-fix-unfortunately-setup-wizard-has-stopped\">How do I fix Unfortunately Setup Wizard Has Stopped?<\/a>\n\n\n<\/li>\n\n<li><a href=\"#how-do-i-get-rid-of-setup-wizard-data-limited\">How do I get rid of setup wizard Data Limited?<\/a>\n\n\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"#how-can-i-access-the-setup-wizard-the-second-time\">How can I access the setup wizard the second time?<\/a>\n\n<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#what-does-complete-account-setup-mean\">What does Complete Account Setup mean?<\/a>\n\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p> See also: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/how-to-stop-pop-up-notifications-on-android\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"6673\" target=\"_blank\">How To Stop Pop Up Notifications On Android?<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-android-setup-app-on-my-phone\">What is Android Setup app on my phone?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Android Setup is a system app on Android smartphones that is responsible for setting up your new device.

Here are some common reasons and solutions to this annoying notification:<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-remove-restrictions-using-your-dedicated-carrier-app\">1. Remove restrictions using your dedicated carrier app<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>There might be data limits on your plan. If your carrier has a dedicated app, launch the app and see if there are any restrictions and if you can remove them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, Verizon users can sign into the My Verizon app and check data limits.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-contact-your-carrier\">2. Contact your carrier<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Your carrier might be limiting your usage and throttling data speeds during busy times of the day. Try contacting them to get more information on how to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-turn-off-parental-controls-for-data-usage\">3. Turn off Parental controls for data usage<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;s also possible that parental control for data usage has been set on your Android device, causing the &ldquo;data usage limited&rdquo; notification on your Android.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To resolve the problem, try removing parental restriction for the data limit.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-other-methods-to-try\">4.
