Hi @jashimili
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. I’m really sorry about the frustration here.
If you would like, you can turn on the option Hide Announcements found in Insights ? Settings ? Advanced ? Miscellaneous. Turning on this option doesn’t hide everything but it will hide plugin announcements and update details.
I’m sorry about the notifications. It’s not our intent to cause clutter. We try to provide as much value as possible to our users by communicating the Pro version features because a lot of users aren’t aware of them and can benefit greatly.
That being said, with our Lite (free) version, you’re able to track and view critical site statistics (such as page views in the last 30 days, top posts and pages, etc) and automatically track custom events such as telephone and email click tracking, affiliate and outbound link tracking.
We’ve worked hard to put together the best, most reliable, and best supported product for our users, and I hope you might give our plugin a shot.
We really appreciate you for giving us a try and if you have any suggestions for the things you’d like to see in the Lite version, please let me know and I’d be happy to share your feedback with the team.
In regards to removing MonsterInsights, it can be removed the same way as other WordPress plugin. Do note that if you have a multi-site setup you will need to deactivate MonsterInsights on all sub-sites then the main site to uninstall.
