What news app are you using?

Nothing really. Just the Google Discover on the new tab page. I’ve checked to make sure no notifications are “On”.

Long press on the notification and see what app is sending it.

MedicPigBabySaver OP ,

There’s no record of it. It’s just a verbal announcement and it does not appear in the settings notification history.

I would go to your installed apps in settings and look for apps you don’t remember installing. A quick search will tell you what they are, then remove any suspect apps.

Must be some app. Never seen anything like this.

Unfortunately, phone notification history doesn’t show any app notification.
