Well it did say some which may make their wild exaggeration of a headline partially true so they can generate more clicks.

5000/day doesn’t sound realistic, c’mon kids are addicted but it’s not >5k per day. That’s like one every ten seconds for your waking hours

I’m honestly wondering since study seem to primarily include Android users. It seems like the only main statistics they showed about notifications was for the most popular ones (including about eight specifically). It feels strongly plausible that 5,000 notifications a day could be coming from eight different apps.
Also, given how a lot of Android notifications are used for things like background updates, or also things like media controls (which are technically treated as notifications). This would also add a bit of plausibility to that metric. Especially in the case of a more digitally savvy user.

There’s no thing we can do that we won’t enthusiastically overdo.

Consider, if you will, a modest to large group chat. Say a few people start chatting. dindingdingdingding People float into and out of the chat keeping it going for hours and notification after notification after notification comes in. Maybe they’re in a group chat for several classes and/or interests and/or family. I can easily see it. I have to mute the group family chat I’m in when they really start to get going, especially my wife and sister-in-law.

Day after day, a message every few seconds?
