    I think it’s important for people to learn how to manage/customize notifications whether it be on the OS level or through each app individually.

    I keep a lot of things as silent notifications, so they pop up but don’t grab my attention. They’ll be there when I look at my phone. I think texts/calls are the only thing that makes noise on my phone at all.
