Starting in Android 15 QPR1, Android now blocks notifications from alerting you if they’re more than 2 weeks old.

    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!
