    The Amazon app, which for many years has faithfully executed its legitimate role as an app that helps me order stuff and track those orders, recently sent me a notification to let me know it thinks I might like some JBL headphones.

    It made me furious. How dare they?

      At least they normally let you selectively disable promotions

        Really? That’s handy. Is that an Amazon config option or an iOS config option?

          I’m not sure about on iOS, on android if you long press on any notification and go to disable it there are a bunch of toggleable notification categories
