It's not ignoring so much ass the internal array of notification options changes, or the app is upgraded across a major OS release, or something else which causes a new or replacement notification setting to take on its default value.
The problem, if anything, is that whatever test suite they run doesn't include someone opting out of everything, applying the update, and then checking if they are still opted out of everything (including new stuff that didn't exist before).
- JimDabell 8y agoThis definitely doesn't sound correct. Aside from the fact that the default for notifications is zero permissions, Apple don't keep adding new notification types. I've never seen the type of "reset" you're talking about in 10+ years of developing iOS apps. If you're certain you've disabled notifications (Settings > News > Notifications > Allow Notifications), then file a bug.
- saagarjha 8y ago> the default for notifications is zero permissions Not for Apple's apps. Also, note that as of iOS 12 apps can post "provisional" notifications without asking for permission: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/unauthorizationoptions/2993019-provisional https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/...
- garmaine 8y agoThe default is most certainly not zero notifications for Apple News. Get a new iPhone, click through the setup procedure, and you'll get lock-screen notifications about news.
- simonh 8y agoThe only way I can think of this might appear to happen, other than a bug, is restoring a backup to a point where notifications were still enabled.
- garmaine 8y agoNo, this consistently happens when Apple does an iOS release that makes major updates to the News app. Update installed, start getting notifications.
