Doesn't the fact that it says "All Paytem Notifications" supercede the individual selections though? I figured that's how companies were getting around the individual toggles, you either take them all, or you reject them and they'll pester you to enable them literally every time you open the app.
I don't think it does, it's just a quick toggle to disable everything at once. If a category is disabled it gets prioritised.
Awesome! Thanks for that. Now maybe I can turn push notifications back on for Uber Eats and get a notice when they deliver the food, since only about 5% of the drivers will ring the bell. I turned the notifications off because I kept getting advertising pushed to my phone.
Just turn off offers and rewards:
I did that in the past and they reactivated it, or added a new category, or something, because I started getting spam again. I'm trying it out again now. So far, so good.
It's awesome how in the modern world we have to maintain an antagonistic relationship with the things we pay for because they constantly try to goad us into paying for more things.
