Ads via notifications should be regulated.
For example, I have notifications enabled for Amazon because I need to know when a delivery is coming but they’ll use that channel to spam me about “deals”. There’s no reasonable way to disable all these ad-via-notifications.
- julianlam 4y agoAre you sure? I just checked my device, and while all notifications are toggled under a catch-all "notifications" category, I am able to customize this from within the app, and shipment notifications are their own category.
- darzu 4y ago“Reasonable” is doing some heavy lifting, but i just spent another 10 minutes hunting through all the in-app settings menus I could find and I haven’t found a way to disable these alerts. They certainly don’t want you to disable deal notifications and make it very difficult to do so. It’s like the old quote about fire extinguishers: if you don’t know where one is, it doesn’t exist. If a reasonable effort cannot find the setting, it doesn’t exist.
- julianlam 4y agoHm, I'm sorry to hear you wasted your time. There was a shortcut directly to the in-app notification settings directly from the android app notification settings.
