User Reviews

BuzzKill Notification Manager is praised for its powerful and customizable notification controls that help users reduce overload and tailor alerts effectively. Users appreciate the one-time purchase model and developer support. Common issues include occasional app freezes, problems with notification retention after restarts, limited location feature functionality, delayed audio alerts, and some inconsistencies in rule enforcement across devices. Overall, it significantly improves notification management and user experience despite minor bugs.

Pros

Highly customizable notification management with the ability to create specific rules for apps, keywords, and contacts.
Effective at reducing notification overload and helping users regain phone control.
Allows customization of vibration patterns, sounds, and batching of notifications.
No subscription, one-time purchase with lifetime access and no ads.
Developer is responsive and actively updates the app based on user feedback.

Cons

App occasionally freezes and requires force stop to recover.
Some users experience loss of notifications after device restart, especially those marked 'not dismiss'.
Location-based notification features rely only on Wi-Fi networks, limiting effectiveness.
Delayed audio notification sounds by about 2 seconds, which some users find annoying.
Rules sometimes do not apply as expected, e.g., repeated notifications within cooldown periods or incomplete blocking on paired devices like smartwatches.

Recent reviews

Auto dismiss works on system UI notifications! I run apps that draw over others and I explicitly set the permissions for those apps to do so. Yet Android thinks I need a notification whenever the draw event occurs (often). Not sure why a notification was stressing me out, but I am physically relieved that it's gone. Edit: this dev team is COOKING. They just keep adding new features that are legitimate value.
