One disgusting trend I see with many phone apps is notification spam with no fine-grained option to disable them without potentially disabling transactional notifications. Ride-sharing and delivery apps are particularly annoying for this.

I remember the time when phone OSes did not have notification categories but it’s not a useful feature if app developers don’t implement them.

Looking at you, Uber, and my once-a-month ride somehow equating to 10 UberEats notices per day.

Marketers -- you're on notice.

I disabled notifications for Uber years ago for ths, the first time I got a marketing push. It's your phone, and they can tell if you've disabled push. Tell them you're not ok with it.

I use the notifications for the once-a-month reserved ride I have to take. Else this would be the solution.

Uninstall Uber Eats until you need it again but yes this sucks.

I don't have Uber Eats app or use the service, but if I could use the marketing cash they offer as currency I'd have a nice chunk of the office rent paid each month.
