    Who the fuck either has sound turned on that often, or has notifications that old?

    I didn’t even know notifications could make noise past their initial display.

      I think the only time I’ve experienced this is when I had my phone off for weeks and still used Gmail. It spammed me on boot with tons of old email notifications.

        Messenger is the worst for this especially since I only have my work phone on half the time so I tend to get a lot of old notifications for messages I’ve already read when I turn it on.

        Is there a mail client you prefer, by the way? I’ve been pretty happy with Spark for a while now, but I don’t care about their AI features and I’d really like Gmail tag support.

          I use FairEmail these days. It might have tag support, if it does though it’s not enabled by default. It has no AI features.

      Ive started using iphones at the very beginning with nokia s60 phones. By the year 2012 I was overwhelmed by notifications and i started to adopt the policy “you need me urgently? Call me” I have Disabled all notifications except for calls. I have no push notifications active and a great phone battery life.

      I still use telegram for messaging but on my own pace (messages gets downloaded only when i open the app)

      Drastic measure

      When I’m traveling and my tablet reconnects to wifi, I get a surge of vibrations. So the combo of notification sync and this feature sounds like it will finally solve that problem!

    What I’d like is the ability to rate limit notifications. If I get a notification from a text, then the same person or same app notifies me within 15 seconds because of another incoming message, I want it to only notify me once.

    I have to have sound/vibration on for work due to the type of industry I’m in, but sometimes if there are a bunch of active conversations going on, my phone is vibrating like a sex toy and I just get exhausted.

        Well, that’s cool. I have searched a few times over the years for this, but stopped looking eventually.

        Did you purchase it? If so, do you find that it works?

          I bought it, I really like it. It’s simple to set up.

          Only glitch is sometimes it mutes an audiobook for a second when a notification comes in, even though you don’t hear the notification

            I don’t regret the purchase. This is what I wanted. Thanks!

          I honestly haven’t used it enough to know how well it works, but their advertisement has the cooldown thing mentioned. I hope it works for you.

            $5 is probably worth giving it a shot.

      IIRC, Lineageos has a setting like that.

        Not useful on a carrier-locked bootloader phone.

        It was one of the best things about it for me
