How do you mean? I can silence or block notifications completely from apps on iOS, and they cannot even send notifications before I approve them to do so.
Are you saying that Android has third party filters that surveil all your notifications in the name of blocking ones you might not want to see?
- frameset 4y agoI'm an android only user, and I think what GP is referring to is that apps can categorise their notifications. In your food example, an app might have categories for "delivery updates" versus "special offers", and you can go into the notification settings for any app and turn on or off categories.
- lern_too_spel 4y agoYes, Android has a notifications API that lets you process all notifications. (This is in addition to the channels mentioned in the sibling comment.) This is not possible on iOS, except maybe for web notifications with a browser extension. I find that situation untenable for any power user of productivity apps, akin to using email without filter rules.
