    My mom’s phone looks like a notification factory exploded in her status bar. I bet she gets a dozen notifications a minute. She has all of her Facebook notifications on, set to push; she has weather notifications from multiple weather apps; she has email notifications, text message notifications, advertising notifications from random stores… it’s hellish. Thankfully all of her notifications are set to silent.

    Anyway, having seen my mom’s phone, I can well imagine 5,000 a day in someone who doesn’t know or doesn’t care about notification hygiene.

        As far as I can tell she ignores all but the top two or three at any given time, and just checks individual apps (messaging, email) as desired. So functionally, it’s like she has no notifications.
