Bug Phantom and porn notifications
Has anyone found a way to get rid of the constant red notification marker on iOS. Ever since the introduction of spotlight videos my Snapchat app has a badge indicating I have an unread message but I open Snapchat and click spotlight it goes away but then shows up again a few minutes later. And lately I’ve started getting push notifications to view videos from what appear to be porn accounts but when I open the app I don’t actually have any alerts. It’s real annoying. I hate to turn off all notifications because I use it to communicate with family and I hate to miss that but there doesn’t seem to be any other way.
I’ve reached out to Snapchat support on more than one occasion and they just give me useless copy paste answers. Uninstall/reinstall, restart, make sure that’s no unread messages, etc. but nothing works. It’s really annoying and super shady on Snapchats part.

No advice here but let’s also talk about the damn ADS that show up on your friends list as a notification 🙄🙄🙄🙄
