These notifications are bundled together for some reason. So if I want to be notified when my subscriptions renew themselves, I have to also be notified of random games going on sale, too.

Yeah Starbucks does the same thing with "Promotions and Order Status". :/

As does SkipTheDishes. Want to be notified that your food is almost here? Fuck you, be bombarded with promotions and deals you didn't ask for.

The management executive who took this decision deserves a punch in the face.

To be fair, most of these apps were made before the notification categories were invented and they don't keep the consultants that made the initial app, or want to pay for the change.

Aw poor corporate behemoth doesn't want to spend the pennies (compared to profits) to do things right. If we're being fair, fuck them for cheaping out at our expense.
