How is the notification system better for privacy on iOS? On android you have notification groups to toggle and you can set which notifications show up on the lock screen and how much of them is visible there. The notification system is to me arguably the best designed thing on android and one of the worst on iOS

I meant the backend sorry. Google Play services vs Apple's stuff.

Interesting, I'm not too familiar with how they work, what makes Apple's more privacy-friendly than Google's?

Apple doesn't know who is subscribed to what notification channel. Its similar to Signal's sealed sender. Meanwhile Google does.
