I dont know about others, but sometimes I am not able to check my phone, or be fully present in a conversation that I’m part of. Maybe I’m concentrating on work, or driving, and not able to look. It gets distracting when my phone is constantly buzzing and chiming for 5 minutes straight. Muting the chat can help, but if you forget to check it, or get added to a new one, you can’t really do anything about it. I just want to be able to get notified once that the chat has new messages, decide how I want to react, and then move on from it. Is that too much to ask?
I bet you use an iPhone, right?
Nope. I have an android. I just downloaded an app called buzzkill from a recommendation. We’ll see how well it works out for me
Buzzkill is great, but although it mutes the notification sound, if you’re listening to an audiobook, it mutes that every time there’s a silent notification! Fuckin annoying
I wrote to the dev and he said it’s an Android system thing and there’s nothing he can do about it
Good of him to reply though!
