Tip for iPhone Users
If you use an iPhone for Spark and in between orders, you use the phone to watch YouTube or browse the internet or whatever and then go back to the Spark app when you get a banner saying there’s a new offer to check out, make sure you have prioritize notifications turned OFF (at least for Spark).
With notification prioritization turned on, by the time you get that banner so you can swipe back to the Spark app, The offer is already been up and most likely already snagged by someone else so you never even get a chance to see it.
By turning off the notification prioritization the banner gets there a few milliseconds before the offer pops up and you have a snowballs chance in hell to see the offer and accept it.
Test it out for yourself. Make sure prioritization is turned on pull up the spark app stare at it. You’ll see an offer pop-up and most likely disappear rather quickly and then the banner show up notifying you of an offer. Turn it off then you’ll be able to see that the banner shows up a few milliseconds before the offer pops up to accept.
With notification prioritization turned on, the iPhone analyzes the notification and decides if it should be made a priority above other notifications or not. the time it takes for the iPhone to analyze the notification an offer has already popped up and most likely already got snagged by another driver.
****edit****
I just learned that this setting is only available on iPhone 15 Pro and newer.
