Looking back, I was surprised to see it’s been more than eight years since I put my iPhone on a notifications diet . My iPhone is a far calmer place because of this. But there’s another long-standing issue with notifications: there’s still no way to separate useful ones from marketing and other junk … I first made a feature request about this back in 2020 . I don’t need to be notified when our robo-cleaner has completed its cleaning cycle, and I most definitely don’t want to be spammed by eBay. I do, however, want both apps to be able to send me useful notifications. If I’m selling something on eBay, it’s useful to be notified when I receive a question about it, as well as when a sale goes through. If I’m buying something through eBay, it’s handy to know when it’s been dispatched. The same with the cleaner: if it gets stuck somewhere, or needs the bin to be emptied, or the filter to be changed, those are all notifications I want to receive. So what I really want are tiered notifications.…
