Just tap Don't Allow.

Edit: More seriously, all four of those suggestions are very good, and I'd like to see them too. For #4, a deep link to the app's notification settings would be good enough, and probably more likely than getting a notification settings controller in UIKit.



Isn't that the point of the OP?

Apps that are increasingly abusing push notifications means that users are increasingly just choosing "Don't Allow" even when push notifications are a key part of a non-spammy app, because they're wary of later being spammed.


The point is that this kind of notification spam causes users to do just that, and it's having a negative impact on apps that use push notifications appropriately.


Local Notifications are not disabled with the "Don't Allow" settings. I had to delete Diamond Dash after it sent me one too many notifications at 4 am.
