If I can't turn off notifications then I just uninstall the app. I uninstalled Facebook and Messenger because of this. I had been using the Facebook mobile site just fine for years, but this fall decided to stop checking that too...
- inetknght 9y agoThere are quite a few notifications on my phone that are, provided by the OS, or whose app I can't identify, or the app cannot be disabled in any fashion. Google's traffic notifications, for example. I literally don't care that the traffic is lighter than normal at 2 AM. I literally don't care about traffic at all. My life does not revolve around traffic. But can I disable these? Nope. T-mobiles application updates. I don't care about T-mobiles application updates. I don't use T-mobile's application. I don't trust T-mobile's application. Can I disable that notification? Nope. It wastes precious every resource a mobile device has. "Select Keyboard" notification when I have a keyboard open. Uhh... I selected the default keyboard. Is that not enough? Apparently not. I don't know how to get rid of the notification though. I install OS updates pretty regularly. But there's a few updates that are pushed without consent because the "I agree" form has no way to opt out, not even for "no I don't want to reboot my phone right now, I have something more important to do" after a few days.
