I woke up today to find a notification on my iPhone’s Lock Screen that caught my attention. The notification isn’t linked to any app—I don’t even use Fandango. When I tapped on it, I was taken to a standard advertisement in Apple Wallet.
It seems that Apple has taken the liberty of sending out advertisements as push notifications, which I find incredibly frustrating. I have a strong dislike for intrusive notifications and typically disable them in any app that attempts to send me ads. This new trend feels intrusive and unwelcome.
Unfortunately, I haven’t discovered a clear way to stop these notifications from appearing. My only option appears to be completely turning off notifications for Apple Wallet, but I would prefer to avoid that if possible. I am curious to know if anyone else has encountered similar notifications and if there’s a solution to manage or eliminate them.
It feels perplexing to have ads forced onto my screen in this manner, and I would appreciate any insights from those who have experienced the same issue or have found a way to handle it. In today’s age, where privacy and personal space are paramount, this approach by Apple seems out of touch. I hope there is a way to take back control of my notifications and regain a clutter-free Lock Screen.
