Removing Birthday Notifications on iPhone Mobile App

PLEASE PLEASE provide an option to disable birthday notifications on the mobile app for iPhone. It is a terrible UX to not be able to remove these and get constant messages for birthdays.  What's worse is that even after you delete the unwelcomed notifications, they will reappear all day until the birthday has passed. I mean what is the point of being able to disable them on your desktop/laptop if you can't do it on your mobile device, too?

This is ridiculous. It seems to be impossible to turn this 'feature' off on iOS devices.  That is annoying. But what is worse... I put in my date of birth on the Skype settings page the birthday becomes 'Public' by default, with no option to make it private.  I dont' want to broadcast my birthday as it often forms part of other sites' ID authentication. I have been using this service for nearly ten years.  If this is the sort  disregard for privacy that will increase under Microsoft's ownership then I'll be off somewhere else. Please fix this issue.  It is unaccptable that you continue to ignore this forum on your own site.

    I don't even have a lot of contacts in my list but it's still annoying to repeatedly get the same notification all day long for each person with a birthday that day.
    Disabling the feature is a must but after deleting the notifications for those you do want to be notified about should just delete it. End of story. It shouldn't remind you several times a day. How can such a simple feature be overlooked?
    I can't believe this issue has been going on as long as it has and no reply has been given in this thread during the last year. I have the newest version for iOS 7 and the problem must have persisted across at least a couple of versions of the app based on when the problem was first reported.

  • Notifications section in mobile app (like on PC).

    It would be great if you could add a notification counter (just like on the PC version), to read all missed notifications in the mobile App. Because sometimes you delete them from your status bar by mistake.

    I noticed also that the email notification for changed playlist is very poor not user friendly:
    Hi camillo75,
    fimi_it just added Cool Kids and 2 other tracks to the playlist[Top of the music] Week 4 - 2015 - Top Digital
    You are receiving this message because you are following this playlist.
    Why it is not possible to have the complete list of added/removed tracks ?

  • How to remove update notification for an unwanted app?

    Hi, recently, I got a notification to update an app I never purchased ("Nyan Cat: Lost In Space"). I checked with Apple support services, I searched that app on my hard drive and in my iTunes and App Store history, it doesn't appear anywhere. But it's still standing here in the App Store app update section, with a red badge on the icon, inviting me to update this app that has never installed on any of my drives. It's really annoying, is there something I can do to get rid of that crap?

    Thanks for your help Dah•veed. I thought that'd be easier to solve but I'll go to an Apple Store.

  • Ipad, Iphone, Mobile Apps and Webdav support

    I have just purchased the NSS 324 which is a superb bit of hardware. I am however having some difficulties with support as i have both an iphone and an ipad. Neither of which formats properly via the mobile safari web interface, in addition to this apart from the Tech Support app there are no indivdual apps to take advantage of the wonderful features which are available. So my questions are:
    - Is there going to be a management app for multimedia station etc. So we can upload and download stuff remotely from a mobile device specifically designed for this device (not an ftp app)
    - WebDav just does not work remotely and one connection at a time via Cisco access now isn't going to cut it (mind you FTP works great!!!) but i have become accustomed to using Webdav and given the option i thought it would be as simple as my Synology box.
    Any Help would be most appreciated as most of my morning was devoted to getting webdav configured for remote connectivity via my mobile and offsite pc but to no avail.

    Hello Doishi, thank you for your reply really appreciated. i can cope with administration from a computer but it would be great if there was an app or even a mobile version whenver you need to administer from elsewhere.
    For multimedia i was trying to use it for streaming music to my mobile device and upload/download content remotely. At present i can upload and download via ftp locally and remotely with no probs but the app costs over £5 per license. streaming is however a no-no as i cant find an app that does it on the fly.
    Webdav ooohh Webdav... i can map the drive locally with no issues at all, the problem begins when i do the same remotely. I have attempted to map it remotely via several programs inclusive of windows 7 built in utility, webdrive and netdrive, but to no avail.
    Its a ddns setup which works fine (with the relevant ports opened) and eveything works great with the exception of webdav. Am i missing something? even though webdav is enabled and is an extension of the http protocol does it have a different port? as i cant get this to go remotely.
    Kind Regards

  • HP ePrint mobile app on iPhone 4S & iPad Retina--Bo​th devices say "Photos (0)"

    I have just installed HP ePrint mobile app on both my iPhone 4S and my iPad Retina. However, when I go into the app, when the main screen pops up ("Photos" -- "Cloud" -- "Web" -- "Email"), when I tap "Photos," on either device it says: "Photos (0)"--i.e., I'm assuming that the app thinks I have "zero photos" on both devices, which of course is not true. Other details: (1) I have a Photosmart 7510 on my home wireless network; (2) I am able to print OK to the 7510 using Apple "AirPrint"--no problem there; (3) I can also print using either device (iPhone or iPad) using the HP "PrinterControl" app. So, how is it that HP ePrint mobile app cannot "see" my photos on either my iPhone or iPad (especially since they can "see" those photos when using the HP "PrinterControl" app). Thanks very much in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this situation.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    The issue is related to the privacy settings on ios 6. To resolve this go to settings on your device, then you should see a privacy section. In there go to photos and turn the eprint app on. This should work to allow you to see the photos.

  • How can I temporarily remove games from my iPhone without losing the app data included?

    My iPhone 5 is running low on space so I plan on cleaning it out soon. I have a lot of games on my iPhone with app data included that I don't play as often. I was planning on removing these temporarily because some day I might want to play them again but I'm afraid I won't have my progress anymore. Ex: My levels conquered on Cut The Rope or my worlds on Minecraft PE.
    So is there a solution out there for me to be able to temporarily remove my games without losing their app data? All feedback is greatly appreciated and I how there is a way to do this!

    The only way to recover the data for a deleted app would be to restore from a backup made before you deleted the app.  Apps and their data are integral to eachother, so deleting one deletes the other.
    If you have a backup, you could restore from that to restore an App's data, but a restore is also an all or nothing option - the restore will restore everything to the state of the backup, not single or selective items.
    Other than that, there is no way to acheive what you wish - if you delete the app you delete its data.

  • How to remove Button from Flex Mobile app actionbar with AS3?

    How exactly would i remove a Button from the actionBar "actionContent" in a flex mobile app?
    I tried these:
        this.stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
        this.removeChild(menu_btn);
        stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
        this.stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
        this.removeElement(menu_btn);
        stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
    I'm not having any luck with those. Im guessing where it is located in the actioncontent isn't considered the stage. Any ideas?
        <s:actionContent>
                            <s:CalloutButton id="menu_btn" icon="@Embed('assets/images/menu/menu_btn.png')" visible="false">
                                      <s:VGroup>
                                      <s:Button id="btn_one" label="Button" />
                                      </s:VGroup>
                            </s:CalloutButton>
                  </s:actionContent>
    The actionContent is setup like that, I know like with most mxml stuff I could give it an ID to reference it but im not sure how how to give the action content an id number `<s:actionContent id="testID">` does not work. So how can i access this to remove it? making it invisible isn't cutting it i need to actually remove it.

    Does this do what you are looking for?

  • Once application installed in iphone, the apps still there in apps store-- purchased.  So i want to remove that one

    once application installed in iphone, the apps still there in apps store--> purchased.  So i want to remove that one

    Only the carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it. In
    this case, you must work with Telus. If they have a pay as you go
    plan, activate the iPhone on Telus that way and then after
    you meet whatever requirements Telus has, stop using Telus
    and move the iPhone to Virgin. Or sell the iPhone to someone
    who can use it on Telus.
    Telus is the only one who can unlock that iPhone.

These aren't even available for Windows tablets. But they aren't available in the feature request section either.
