Too many applications abuse notifications and background processing anyway. If you need those features, you have to convince of far more value before I'll install a thing.
- scarface74 8y agoIf you want an iOS app not to “abuse” background processing, there is a setting that will disable the ability on an app by app basis. Of course you have granular control over notifications and how they are presented on a per app basis.

- reaperducer 8y agoThis is true. I allow certain apps to use notifications because there are things that I want to be notified about. My card balance from the Starbucks app, or breaking news from the New York Times app. Both of those companies started abusing notifications. Their apps are no longer on my phones.
- noobiemcfoob 8y ago> I'd wager you are not a great representation of the market that 99% of apps serve I'd wager no one is. Snapchat has 200 million users. There's some 4 billion people on the internet. Niches are niches, and no one serves everyone.
- mktguru 8y agoI wish "no one" was my customer then I could get a $40B IPO serving everyone :)
