Mute notifications from some apps #58

Closed cameronsstone closed 6 years ago

cameronsstone commented 6 years ago

The windows pushbullet app has a nice feature where you can tell it to suppress notifications from a particular source. For example, I don't need to see email notifications from my phone on my desktop because I get desktop notifications.

Complete feature would include:

  1. Mute option from this source button on notification (with 2nd click for confirmation)
  2. Persistance of muted app list
  3. Preference interface to modify the list (to unmute and remove old apps)

Do you have a full list of apps on phone on desktop app? Because I can't see this possibility from Pushbullet API. Maybe some screenshot will help building this feature.

@cameronsstone Can't this be done from the pushbullet app on your phone already? Besides convenience, I can't really find a motivating factor to make implementing this seem worth the amount of trouble.

cameronsstone commented 6 years ago

No. I suspect it's done client side. That is, the client (desktop) adds apps one at a time when the user selects "mute notifications from this app" from the noti notification. The noti preferences would need some way to remove apps from that list. I agree that a list of all phone apps would be hard, if not impossible, to obtain.

I'll get you a screenshot from my windows machine.

Thanks.

I understood what you meant, but I was talking about this screen:

Sure, we could implement some sort of filter on Noti's side, but as mentioned by @ABeltramo, it'll be hard if not impossible to get a list of all apps on your phone from within Noti.

I do not find the motivation to implement this, given it's a setting in PB as mentioned earlier. Closing.
