Does this end up being one per day per device, or one per day per application?
As an aside, I installed the test application on the marketplace to experience my default notification sound at the same time as the alert was pushed. Cluttering my notification tray is one (undesired) thing, but the sound just pushed it over the top. Is that the behavior the ads will take as well?
I respect trying to push monetization of free apps in a new direction, but I also consider my notification bar to be sacred. Even one additional useless (to me) notification means I trust the rest of them just a little bit less. With moving toward Priority Inbox for gmail, and turning off most other notifications, I would be quite disappointed to realize an application I installed was cluttering it with ads.
- asherisaac 15y agoIt's one per day per DEVICE. As stated we are moving to 100% opt-in. As a result, you will be able to block Airpush ads if you detest them so much, while other users can elect to keep them to help support the developer. Can't we agree that user choice is the best option here? Or would you only be happy if the entire concept was eradicated? The latter doesn't make sense to me.
- 1010011010 15y agoIt's an abuse of the notifications system. So, I'm definitely in the "eradication" camp.
- billmcneale 15y agoSometime, even user choice is not acceptable because the feature is so obnoxious. "Check this box to install malware: X" For me, AirPush is in that category. Come on asherisaac, be honest and imagine that you leave the company you work for so you can assess its business model more objectively: do you still think it's okay? Honestly?
