I used FilterBox to block spammy notifications.
?
Can't you just turn off Notifications on the app. Is that Android only?
That turns off all notifications for that app. FilterBox let's you block them based on key words or other criteria. It's like a spam filter for notifications.
For some apps at least, you can turn off notifications by category. Usually that takes care of any annoying ones.
The apps that abuse notifications like to mix useful notifications in with the spam so you can't turn them off individually, it's all or nothing. FilterBox let's me give them the finger by getting the useful notifications without the spam.
Give them the true finger.
Turn off all notifications or alternatively uninstall them.
