Just interested to know what people are using, I noticed there really isn't a thread talking about preference, wondering how popular the new iOS 16 "Stack" mode has been or if people switch back to the old "List" mode.
Got a tip for us?

Count me in on Count.
Really desire an uncluttered screen, most notifications are noise to me, ditto lock screen widgets. Basically only want to know if a small subset of people called or texted, so hiding things via Count and Notification Summary reports. Bubbles on Phone and Messages (and Mail) give me all the hints I need, so OK with hiding the rest via Count.

I hope iOS 16.2 fixes the absolute horrendous hidden notifications. What a stupid idea that was. Every time I swiped up there were tens of important “notifications”.
I see 16.2 has not fixed the absolutely crap notification system.
Still swiping up to find a ton of notifications I never knew existed.

Yes, I have the same problem. This is why I was wondering what people were using. I get notification fatigue is a thing, especially if you have an Apple Watch, but I find to miss so much, especially in the morning!
List. I like the ‘old school’ way.
My iOS (&watchOS) devices do not spam me so I don’t need to have my notifications managed by a Scheduled Sunmary or hidden under a counter on the locksreen.
I’ve turned off spam notifications (like social networks, news, games, shopping apps, apple watch fitness reminders crap and so on).
I get notifications only from phone & FaceTime, messaging apps (including Mail), banking apps, gps navigation apps, Fantastical, university app, server & router app and FindMy.
Thats it. The other 80% of the apps are silenced. And I dont get people who complain about spammy notifications from apps and dont do the same - just turn them off guys. Its awesome after lol
