Running Android 6.0.1 on Nexus 7 device, where I have disabled the following apps:

  • Google Play Movies and TV
  • Google Play Music
  • Google Play Newsstand
  • Google Play Books

Before disabling, I cleaned the cache and data.

However, the play store constantly sends me push notifications to update these apps, despite the fact they are disabled. How can I stop this?

I have also stopped all notifications from the Google Store app, this did not help either

  • Settings → Notifications → Updates is off

  • Settings → Notifications → Auto-Updates is off

  • Settings → Auto Update apps is off

And the worst thing is that you can't dismiss these notifications, so they stay all the time in the pull-down menu and push down the notifications I might care about.

UPDATE The tablet has Family Link installed and setup, which seems to be preventing enabling Developer options, hence cannot enable USB Debugging to attempt to delete the apps via adb.
