9to5mac.com
The first iOS 18.4 beta introduced a brand new Apple Intelligence feature, Priority Notifications. Now as of todays beta 2 update, Apple is giving users even more control over how the feature works. Here are the details.Apps can now be excluded from Priority Notifications to your likingIn the original version of Priority Notifications, iOS 18.4 only offered a single on-off switch for the feature.Essentially, you could turn on Priority Notifications for all apps, or none at all.Heres Apples summary of how the feature works:Apple Intelligence can show you notifications that may be important in a separate section on the Lock Screen, so you can catch up on what you may have missed. You can still swipe up to view all notifications.Basically this separate section gets more prominent placement on your Lock Screen than all other notifications, giving you a visual nudge that notifications there could really merit your attention.However, with no granular controls over which apps could be included, Priority Notifications could potentially do users a disservice by highlighting alerts that a user doesnt actually care about.But now in iOS 18.4 beta 2, you can manually disable Priority Notifications on a per-app basis.By going to Settings Notifications Prioritize Notifications, youll find toggles for every app that supports notifications. From here, a quick tap will remove an app from eligibility for being included in that high-importance Priority Notifications bubble.It will be interesting to see throughout the iOS 18.4 beta cycle if certain apps or types of apps emerge as generally not as important as Apple Intelligence thinks they are. Perhaps users choices will even feed back into Apples AI models.Do you plan to disable Priority Notifications for certain apps in iOS 18.4 beta 2?
