- me551ah 8y agoGet one of the phones listed in the link. Xiaomi is brilliant in this regard !
- daveFNbuck 8y agoDoes it allow the user to configure the delays per app?
- scarejunba 8y agoBoth these apps allow you to do that in-app. I have Gmail not notify me for work emails and notify me for stuff on my personal account.
- rplnt 8y agoThat doesn't save the battery though.
- daveFNbuck 8y agoI want all the notifications. This was a question about timing. I don't want them to do the constant polling required for the notifications to appear instantly.
- dbrgn 8y agoIf the app is killed that doesn't just delay notifications. It prevents them until you manually open the app again.
- daveFNbuck 8y agoYeah, but we're talking about manufacturers adding custom functionality that delays notifications to save battery.
- dtech 8y agoSo why not disable the notification functionality if you don't want it?
- daveFNbuck 8y agoI want the notification functionality, I just don't need it to be instant.
- zo1 8y agoDelaying them by how much?
- daveFNbuck 8y agoFor Gmail, an hour delay would be fine. For Slack, probably 5 minutes would be ok.
- handzbagz 8y agoDon't most apps use GCM to deliver notifications anyway?
