How to Delete a New Station Alert has Arrived

Many times you must have heard an alert like “a new station alert has arrived.” Do you know what that means? Or what do you need to do in order to remove it?

Stopping it is easy, but the error timing is pretty bad, due to which the users tend to get confused. This article will help you resolve this error as this is a prevalent issue usually faced by Android users.

What is “A New Station Alert has Arrived”?

Mobile users have often complained that an alert in a male voice is detected on their phones while trying to use an application. It usually appears at an interval of every thirty minutes but also stops by itself.

It is just a random voice saying out loud- “A new station has arrived.” Well, it is an in-built error or notification produced by some apps. You can remove it by turning off the notification or uninstalling the app.

Why does the Notification appear?

Many assumptions have been made about its appearance like it might be caused by malware or a virus, but none has been confirmed yet. It also might be an alert, particularly used by Weather stations, News stations, and Podcast stations. 

Others have said that it must have been the result of a bug, but till now, this hypothesis has been rejected. Thus, all of the statements have been ignored, and the sole focus has been that an application causes it.

But there is still no full proof evidence of what causes the error to occur. There might be some inner defections within the app.
