Gets even worse on mobile. Android supposedly lets you turn some types of notifications off, so unscrupulous companies put all their notifications, ranging from necessary to pure advertisement, under one type.

Looking at you, UberEats. The tradeoff for knowing my food is arriving should not be a business being able to interrupt my goddamn peace of mind at any hour it wishes.

Uber lost my business entirely, because it's hard to use effectively without notifications (you constantly have to be watching to see when your ride/food arrives), but they abuse notifications so badly that I would never leave them on.

I cannot believe how user hostile the notifications for the food delivery apps are. Frequent spamming which you cannot turn off without turning off delivery notifications

They are riding on borrowed time, desperately trying to be viable companies. Not really an excuse though.

My typical workflow when recording a video on iPad is: Turn on. Open Camera app. Press record. Wait 3 seconds. Dismiss "Sign in to iCloud" notification.
