As the World Cup 2026 heats up, England faces Mexico in a crucial last-16 match. You might not want constant updates buzzing your phone during the game or at work. Here’s how to take control of those BBC Sport alerts so you can enjoy the action on your own terms.

Turning Off Notifications on Your Phone

You can quickly silence alerts from the BBC Sport app or website. The process is simple and takes just a few taps.

  • Open the BBC Sport app on your smartphone or tablet.
  • Go to the ‘Alerts’ or ‘Settings’ section, usually found in the main menu.
  • Find the list of sports or teams you follow. Look for ‘England’ or ‘World Cup 2026’ options.
  • Toggle the switch for alerts related to the England v Mexico match to the ‘off’ position.
  • You can also choose to turn off all BBC Sport alerts temporarily to stop any interruptions.

Customizing Your Alert Preferences Online

If you access BBC Sport through a web browser, you can adjust your settings there too. This gives you more control over which updates you receive.

  • Log into your BBC account on the website.
  • Navigate to the ‘My Sport’ or ‘Notifications’ page.
  • Scroll to the ‘Team Alerts’ or ‘Match Alerts’ section.
  • Uncheck the box next to England or the specific match against Mexico.
  • Remember to save your changes before exiting the page.

Once you’ve turned off the alerts, you won’t get goal updates, red cards, or final score notifications until you turn them back on.

Re-Enabling Alerts When You’re Ready

After the match, you might want to get back in the loop for future games. Turning alerts back on is just as easy.

Simply return to the same settings page in the app or website. Toggle the switch for England or World Cup alerts back to ‘on’. Your phone will then buzz with live updates for the next match. This way, you control when you hear about the action, whether it’s a thrilling victory or a dramatic penalty shootout.
