Muting a player

I am participating in a tournament with 3 days/move time control. One player keeps PMing me "go" immediately or shortly after making a move. Fine, I may take a day or even two to keep up with my games at times, but that should still be fine in a 3 days/move game. So I tried disabling chat in that game. But I still keep getting notifications on my phone whenever he urges me to "go". Also, in the game I get a new message notification, although when I click on it I only get a message that chat is disabled. So how do I block these messages? Do I need to block the user entirely? If so, how will this affect the rest of the game?

I have similar issue. But its possible to turn off notification in the app. I used the classic app a long time. But now im using the new one. Go to the settings.

Its Settings, General, and then notifications. Then turn off enable

If you block the user, it won't impact the game.

Martin I belive he wants to turn off notification on the app. Not blocking.

The OP mentioned that the opponent is sending PMs and wants them to stop. Unless PM was a chat message.

 

If it is a PM, turning off notifications may help a little.

It was chat messages in an ongoing game. I don't want to disable all notifications for the app (yet), although I may consider it later.

Its the only way. Or you can use the chess.com classic app. Chat messages does not pop up.
