> I love the ability to batch up the notifications. In my ideal world, I would get notifications at 8AM, 12pm, 5pm and 9pm. And that's all.

Couldn't you do this manually by silencing your phone except for alarms, and then setting vibrate-only alarms at those times?

Alarm goes off, you check your phone and deal with any notifications you have so far, and then you go back to ignoring it.

For me, this would functionally be no different than just deciding I wasn't going to check.

Alarms would make sense if I had trouble remembering to check if I didn't check constantly, but the problem is the compulsion to thoughtlessly reach for my phone to check for notifications every few minutes. If I could batch up notifications therefore making the act of grabbing my phone and looking at it pointless, that seems like it would have a real impact.
