    Take Control of Notifications

    **NOTE: We will be starting the meeting at 7:00 PM, or earlier if the room becomes available before then.

    Almost every app on your iPhone, iPad, Watch, and Mac can send you notifications. Sometimes these sounds, alerts, banners and badges can all be very helpful and are welcome. Other times they can be very distracting and annoying. There are numerous settings built-in that help give you fine-grain control over these notifications for if and when you’d like to receive them.

    Please join us at the next Mini’app’les meeting!
