After activation, a triple notification appears #128

I would expect there to be only one notification.

A question about the wording here: will lock/will be locked. Or rather logged out?

Additional question: Why does the Notification Indicator not show me from which app or which system component this notification comes? It is displayed as "others" with a generic icon. I would expect to see in the notification what AppCenter would show me.

For me, this makes it immediately clear from the user's point of view which app currently wants my focus. "Other" notifications are easily lost if there are many notifications.

Supplementary observation: One hour before the screen period expires, I also receive a notification.

  1. Triple notification again!
  2. I wonder if it would be useful if users could specify the interval at which they want to receive a reminder. An example here would be the elementary calendar event creation process.
  3. One and a half an hour before the end of the period, I receive a notification that I will be locked in one hour. Is there any way that Screen Time & Limits could be more precise here?
  4. Each time the desktop lid is opened, a new notification about the remaining time until the screen limit period expires appears. Is this intended? This can happen very often during the day.
