The reason for Android’s Notification system being better than iOS, is solely due to the ability to turn off individual aspects of an application’s notifications.

Google, the poor multi-billion dollar scrappy startup that maintains Android, made a payment app that has one notification setting, “Google Pay”. So all the ads, promotions, everything.

3rd party apps like PhonePe & Paytm have a better system.

How do you manage to maintain this OS?

    And in contrast to iOS there’s eg. AutoNotification. So even with some very bad and intrusive apps, like my App tracking me driving and giving discounts if I’m good, that don’t allow such fine settings and refuse to work without all notifications on, you can just block specific ones. In my case it’s things like status information, reminders etc.
