10. Well when I mention "notifications"

I am not even counting all my mobile app ones that happen on my phones/iPad. I have a number of not only weather apps but news site apps that send breaking news notifications. Those can be handled easier and are not too intrusive considering I rarely use my phones for anything. It's the emails that can be a PITA because I get enough spam crap (missed by spam filters) and "legit" but often excessive "retail" outlet emails in my mailbox as it is, so I try to reduce the sources and/or frequencies of email.
