The app asks people to use notification or not. They just need to say no. That's all it takes.

I appreciate the accuracy of your point.

I believe many don't understand the difference between an apps Notifications setting and a a confident sense of Location privacy settings. I may be wrong here.

Thank you so much for Amethyst. 💜
