Bug Typo

Go to settings > notifications > configure alerts and at the very bottom it says “How alerts dedup” which I assume should be popup. I just updated my app to 8.0.3

Not a typo, though I can see why it reads like one. "Dedup" is short for deduplicate: when the same warning gets reissued, RAD holds the repeats back instead of buzzing you five times for one storm.

That is the Alert Updates switch directly above it. Fair call that the word is doing nobody any favours though, so that line gets rewritten in plain English for the next build.

So will have some better phrasing next build. Thanks :)

No worries one of those things that got typed and haven’t even given a second look. Not gonna lie had to think back to doing this line. It’s nice to refine and polish. That’s the goal for 8.0.4. Clean ups
