That’s why you should disable notifications for apps who shows sensitive information.
Signal does a good way of doing it they only signal (hehe) their app that their is a notification, then the apps gets this information itself.
What I wonder about is if the push notifications are ‘sent’ anyway, ie through the network and the phone just doesn’t do anything with them? Does anyone know?
Removing the notifications permission doesn't prevent them from being sent. Source
Awesome, thanks for the source!
