On a PC or Mac
- Go to the Google+ website. It's at https://plus.google.com/u/0/. If you're signed into Google, doing so will open your Google+ Home page.
- If you aren't signed into Google, you'll need to click Sign in in the top-right corner of the page, enter your Google account's email address and password, and click Sign in once again.
- Click ☰. This button is in the top-left corner of the Google+ page. Doing so will prompt a pop-out menu.
- If you see a column of options on the left side of the page, you don't need to click this button.
- Click Settings. You'll see this option toward the bottom of the pop-out menu on the left side of the page.
- Scroll down and click the "Email" switch. This option is to the right of the "Occasional updates about Google+ activity and friend suggestions" text that's beneath the "Notifications" heading. You should no longer receive emails from Google+.
- You can also click individual options below the "Email" heading and then click their respective switches to disable them individually.
On iPhone
- Open Google+. This app is white with a red circle and a white "G+" on it. Doing so will open your Google+ home page if you're logged in.
- If you haven't used Google+ on your phone before, you'll slide the switch next to an email account right to sign in and then tap Done in the top-right corner of the screen.
- Tap ☰. It's in the top-left corner of the screen.
- Tap Settings. You'll see this near the middle of the drop-down menu on the left side of the screen.
- Tap Notifications. It's near the top of the page. There's a bell-shaped icon on the left side of this option.

- You can also tap an option below the "Email" heading (e.g., "Posts") and then slide specific notification reasons off.
