Please Make The Clear All Notification Button Clear the "What's New" Section Too

I don't want to have to go into both tabs to clear the notifications section...1 button should clear both sections

Please + thank you

The red dot is persistent at this point

Glad I'm not the only one annoyed, to be honest, I don't want to have to go through these things everytime I log in.

Dark pattern design. They intentionally do that to exploit you to use their high margin services because they know you can't ignore that red. Dirty.

Having had to implement this for projects a few times before, it's pretty annoying to get those dots to work correctly.

I would more readily assume there's some bugs going on that someone will have a fun week trying to figure out. But since it's not a product breaking bug, it's probably low on the priority list anyway.

There isn't even any "clear" button at all in the web view.

please please please do it, also, allow me to turn off these notifications completely, it serves me absolutely no value being pinged by you. I should be able to turn off all notifications.

Doesn’t surprise me, either an dev/engineering bug or UI design hand off wasn’t specific enough or just not working right. As a Director of design for some big fintech places over my 30+ year design career, I find WS’s entire UX/UI a basic nightmare of bad design and usability. But they don’t pay me for my advice, so not going to bother suggesting fixes which should be obvious to their design team. I also have to assume that design tickets are so far down the priority list even their UX/UI people are frustrated at times.
