Keep important alerts available right away.
Use Immediate for the apps that should continue to behave normally.
Android notification manager
Pingfold gives every app a simple default: keep its notifications Immediate, collect them for a scheduled Digest, or Block the noise you do not need.
Local-first notification control. Notification content is not uploaded to Pingfold servers for processing.
Simple by design
Start with one choice per app. Add an Exception only when a specific case deserves different treatment.
Use Immediate for the apps that should continue to behave normally.
Choose scheduled times or intervals, then review waiting notifications together.
Use Block intentionally for apps whose alerts should not stay in the shade.
A simpler daily routine
Start with the free controls. You can keep important apps Immediate, choose one global Digest schedule for the apps that can wait, and review delivered items in Inbox.
Choose Immediate, Digest, or Block. Add an Exception for a case that needs different treatment.
Use scheduled times, an interval, or manual delivery. Android power settings can delay delivery.
Review what was delivered, then clear retained items when you no longer need them.
More control when you need it
Use Quiet Repeats when one noisy conversation or app keeps asking for attention in a short window.
Bring a selected notification back after a delay instead of turning your entire notification history into a task list.
Hold selected apps during a Focus session, then return to your normal setup when the session ends.
Review recent notification activity and the rule or behavior that determined how a notification was handled.
Local-first privacy
Core notification routing, retained notification content, rules, history, Focus, and app settings remain on your device.
