Annoying app notifications, a pointless vent

(Anonymous) 2025-12-14 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
The Twitch app is getting dangerously close to being removed from my phone. It's going to follow the same path as SnapChat and Twitter before it. I had Twitter on my phone for awhile, but it continually spammed me with notifications about things I wasn't interested in until I finally completely removed it from my phone.

SnapChat did the same thing. I didn't mind if it once in awhile said "Hey, you might know this person" or "Your friend so-and-so has a new post" but it started doing that multiple times a day, and THEN it started telling me "Random Celebrity/Influencer has a new post" and just all kinds of utter garbage spam. I didn't delete it, but I turned off all notifications unless I directly receive or am tagged in something. No more suggestions, they can shove the suggestions.

Twitch has started doing that too. I like the notification when someone I follow goes live, but I do not need to know that some rando I have never heard of is having a hype train, or a high number of viewers, or a suggestion to watch someone who I am currently watching (???).

If you want to once in awhile suggest something to me, I'll tolerate that. Sometimes it might be something useful or interesting. But as soon as you start badgering me with repeated bullshit, you're getting removed entirely or strictly limited.

Not interested in Twitch (or those other two) but are there settings for what kind of notifications you can get, or is it all-or-nothing?

I hate that. Walmart has been driving me crazy with notifications.

I have almost every app notification setting turned off because I cannot stand having my phone go off with random shit the apps want me to look at or buy.

This isn’t me suggesting that as if you’re using Twitch’s one then you likely want to be notified when the streamers you watch go live, I’m just commiserating with you over how annoying notifs are in general.

Dude, same. One time, someone who came to my work forgot her phone. We had it set out on the counter so we could hand it to her when she came back. She was either the most popular person ever, or she had every notification enabled, because it was dinging constantly. I was like, how on earth does she stand that. I can't tolerate the constant notifications coming through. I only want to be bothered if it's something that is actually time-sensitive. Otherwise, I'll look at it when I feel like looking at it. I don't need my attention being disrupted by every app.

DA
Same. I hate notifications.
My friend has notifications turned on for one of her active chats and I've got annoyed and frustrated just talking with her with her phone down. Why do you need dings for every word your stupid fandom chat says?!

The only app notifications I leave on are for things like BBC News and weather alerts.

Just turn them off in settings?
