Repetitive Notification

I’ve been receiving a notification every couple days or so that’s labeled “Sharing Reminder” then says you’re sharing health data with so and so. How do I turn this off? I don’t need to be reminded who I’m sharing my health data with when I chose to share my information with them.

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16

And there isn’t. So recommend to Apple that they make this a feature. I would say’s it on Apple, but rather the IEEE making the calls in standardizations.


Recommend this to Apple:

Being not an option, recommend this to AppleApple won't get back to you directly, but the more feedback they receive on this, the more they will know what is their customers prefer, and what features to include in iOS versions to come.

  1. Go Here: Feedback - iPhone - Apple
  2. Select: "Feature Request" for the "Feedback Type"
  3. Comment: that you want this to be an option and why. Include the URL of this thread.
  4. Proceed from there as necessary

Disabling Health Data Notifications:

  1. Go here: Share and View Health Data in the Health App - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: Stop receiving health data
  3. As it Reads: "If you want to stop receiving notifications, you can turn off Alerts, Trends, or Updates."

1)


plz disregard new topic about getting these notifications too early in morning.


I'll search discussions to see about timing health notifications and if needed I'll send apple a second Feedback - iPhone - Apple

Feedback - iPhone - Apple



2) Sorry I took too long and couldn't edit what I said I sent to Apple Feedback.


 I actually sent this instead:



Dear Apple, 


 I want notifications about my Mother's health data. I want you to make it possible to shut off the notifications that I'm sharing with her or reduce them to 1x/month at most. Please review this thread:

I want to receive health notifications that give updates, alerts, or trends to my parent’s health data. If I turn the above notifications off I won’t be able to review notifications in relation to my parents health data. Attached is a screenshot of the notification I’m referring to. I tried to swipe left because normally it gives you options to turn off notifications of that specific type, I explored my notification options offered… under “configure in health” I was unable to find anything in relation to “Sharing Reminders” or that sounded like it could be related, so the next time it popped up I tried “view settings” and I had the same result.

I have the same issue as MelissaAnne2, but the answers you are providing are not addressing the issue.


Like MelissaAnne2 said, re: your first answer, we want to receive notifications about health data others are sharing with us. Re: your second answer, we don’t want to stop sharing our health data with others.


What we want is to not be notified that we are sharing health data with others. We know we are sharing. We don’t need to be reminded every few days. There doesn’t appear to be any notification setting related to being reminded that you’re sharing health data with another person. Sure, I could turn off all notifications from Health, but then I wouldn’t get all the other Health notifications that I do want.


I could accept being reminded once per month even, but a couple times per week makes no sense.

I sent this to Apple Feedback:


Hi Apple,


I want notifications about my Mother's health data.


I want you to make it possible to shut off my personal trends but keep on notifications my parent!

Thanks for how to request this feature. I also have notifications about my parent.


IDK if I should mention this here or look for another thread but one of the reasons these notifications are such an issue is TOD I receive them ie wicked early.


Is there a way to select the time notifications are delivered?


Because both our trend notifications wake us up...


Sincerely,

mew6
