- infinityplus1 4y agoDoesn't Android allow you to select which category of notifications you want to receive? That can be useful here.
- kevincox 4y agoThe problem is that it is a blacklist not a whitelist. So these apps that spam a lot just create a new category every week. It would be fantastic if you could switch some apps to whitelist mode.
- sodality2 4y agoWhat applications do that?
- kevincox 4y agoThe Google Search/Assistant app seems to be one of the worst that I have installed. No matter how many categories I mute I seem to get a new spam notification every couple of weeks. Unfortunately there are 2-3 useful notification categories so I haven't completely shut it down now. Google Maps also used to be pretty bad for this but I don't seem to recall any new categories for many months now.
- nicoburns 4y agoWho sends you personal messages on LinkedIn? Personally, I don't even trust LinkedIn to have an app installed on my phone. But I haven't received even a single spam notification from any of the major chat platforms.
- dmd 4y agoGood for you. I get dozens a day.
- nicoburns 4y agoAre these first-party messages from the platform, or is it more akin to spam email where they're just letting through spam messages from spammers?
- dmd 4y agoMostly first party.
- nicoburns 4y agoInteresting. I have all of WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Signal and Telegram (+ SMS and email, but I'm guessing these aren't the issue) installed on my phone with notifications enabled, and I only get notified when I receive a message. I'd be interested to know which services are spamming you.
