Bombarded with pointless alerts

Pain 6 out of 10, noticeable.

115 reviews · in 40 of 92 apps · 0.5% of the category’s reviews · hand-checked: 86 of 95

The app sends alerts about trivia, about weather far from home and the same one over and over, so people end up muting even the important ones.

What people write

Stupid notifications. I started getting random notifications about what paint colors to use or today I got “flea market secrets.” What does this have to do with weather? I’ve turned off all the notifications I can in the app and I still get them. Annoying.
