What you're looking for was added to core Android since Android 15.

Have you checked in your settings thoroughly?

With specific DND settings and the various notifications options, you can achieve several different levels of "being notified" all under your control.

If on older Android versions than 15, a mix of DND settings set to detect driving and/or a tasker or similar app group to set the notifications for specific apps to go into "snooze" would also achieve the same effects.

There's also at least one open source project I saw on my brief search that had an app that basically mimics the notification cooldown system but I didn't linger enough to determine project state.

    I have Android 16 installed. Searching the settings doesn't show any feature called "notification cooldown"

    Just googled it and found: "Because Samsung uses its own One UI interface over Android, this native menu option may not appear on certain Galaxy models or One UI versions"

    Thanks Samsung.

    It would probably take a separate app to override the notification behavior.

    Android is so fragmented as an ecosystem, any time you read about new feature X in Android version Y, assume it only applies to Pixel and AOSP based custom ROMs. Sometimes you'll be wrong but generally it's just pointless to assume other people have the same features as you unfortunately.
