# Why you hear from us so rarely.

One rule, and what it rules out.

A notification is sent only when knowing now changes what you do. That is the whole rule, and everything else follows from it.

## What it rules out

No streaks. No badges. No counter going up while you are away. Nothing that says you have not opened the app in a while, and nothing sent because a number needed moving this week. None of that changes what you do. It only changes how often you look.

## What still reaches you

A meeting that moved this morning. Something a person is actually waiting on you for. The kind of thing where finding out tomorrow would have been too late.

## Turning it down further

You can reduce it. You cannot be made to receive more of it, because there is no more of it to receive.
