Apple should let us schedule work-hours notifications for specific apps
Focus just doesn't cut it. I don't want Jira, Teams, Outlook, Slack, etc. sending me notifications after I've signed off of work, or if its the weekend. I find myself turning of Teams notifications on my iPhone over the weekend, and forgetting to turn it on during work hours. Apple should introduce a feature that schedules work-hours notifications, so you decide what times Teams notifications should be sent to you and during what day of the week. Shouldn't be fixed to 8h, some of us might want it to be turned on between 08:00-10:00 on a Wednesday only. Thoughts?

Show HN: RefundHalt, contest App Store and Google Play refunds automatically
Hi HN, I'm the founder of RefundHalt.
When a user of your app asks Apple or Google for a refund, it almost always gets granted because you never contest it with consumption and usage data. You bear the full loss.
From August 3, 2026, Google also starts billing developers the purchase price plus bank fees on chargebacks; this means not only will you lose the original purchase price, but the bank also charges you extra money for this as well, about ~$15-30 dollars per chargeback (or even more)
RefundHalt contests these refunds for you automatically, with your app user's real usage evidence.
Setting up ALL your IOS and Android apps for automatic refund protection is extremely easy; it takes less than 3 minutes, you only need to copy and paste some values. No SDK installation is required.
Refund rates across my apps and some test users went from about 9% to ~1.9%, early data shows.
What would stop you from using this?
