New Android POS at work has 4 notifications but I can't clear them because their MDM locks the notification bar.

  I thought you were calling it a POS but when I looked it up its actually a POS

    The restaurant i work at uses a system called “Future POS” which inspired me to write that over all the baby pics of me at my parents place

    POS would have been funnier

      That’s what it says. Reject reality and substitute your own.

  …only 4?

  wanna bet it goes past ‘mildly’ before they take care of it?

    It certainly has more but the bar caps at 4

      Not sure on older Android versions but newer ones would show a small dot for the notification overflow.

  Those notifications will pile up and have you looking like a boomer in no time!

    Boomer?

    Every millenial’s phone I’ve seen has a million notifications.

    It’s weird to me.

      I guess I see the boomer as the gold standard. Notifications as far as the eye can see, noises dinging nonstop, 10000 browser tabs open. Last reboot: 2023 when their nephew made them do it.

  I use a different POS at work but has a similar issue. You can swipe down from the top of the screen just like a phone to see notifications but the swipe down spot is very small and not in the center. For me, its middle left of center. Maybe yours is similar?

    I think this is a Samsung tablet thing. Just a couple of weeks ago I discovered it has two swipe down menus, one for the right side and one for the left with different functionalities.

  Put a strip of tape across the top of the screen.

  Have you ever asked yourself why your so bothered by it, and if it’s worth being bothered by it?

    ADHD or something i guess. Maybe that’s the reason it’s mildly infuriating.

  Can you ask the Android equivalent of Siri to “show me my notifications”?

• the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  So ignore them, problem solved.

  Shizuku+Canta could probably get rid of them.

    I’d be surprised if you’d be able to install shizuku and canta on a POS terminal, even more surprised if you could enable adb to give shizuku privileges.

      What about running Doom?

      Even if it was just a standard Android phone though, this is a work device locked down by MDM lol. It’s like someone being frustrated with the windows group policy on their work computer and someone responding “well maybe you should switch to Linux” like it’s under their control

      Oh, it’s a Point-of-Sale! Yeah, not much you can do there.

  POS? MDM?

  source

  • invertedspear@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Point Of Sale, a generic term for everything that functions these days as a cash register did in the last. Typically has to be computerized to be a POS

    MDM, mobile device management. What corps do to keep people from doing things to devices that the corp doesn’t want done. Company issued mobile phones might use this, but so would a POS company since they wouldn’t want people installing games on a cash register.

    MDM is mobile device management
