Whoever thought this was a good idea, move them to a different department.

Setting an Alarm for your marketing announcements is the worst.

I've been a user since the beta days, and this wins the worst feature in 16+ years.

That said how do I get rid of your spam?

Do I really get to stare at the alarm bell with a bright red number until I read "what's new with Evernote?"

or the riveting "Microsoft Outlook Calendar integration is here!" - ummm you do know I am on the Mac Client?

I hope there is an easy way to turn this off, but more importantly, don't add spam features in the future. Make it an opt-in.

I get these in many apps. Personally, I don't mind them, but a way to opt out would be nice.

It doesn't matter which client you are using. Many use Evernote on multiple systems and FYI, Outlook is available for the Mac.

I think the plan is to put other types of notifications here in the future.

You can always just ignore it.

I'm a Mac user, and the Outlook plug-in is probably the single biggest reason I didn't ditch EN several months ago.

Actually, if you study what those alarms do to the human mind, you shouldn't ignore them. You actually notice them.

It makes obviously no sense to ask for a spam opt in …

Have you checked the notifications settings in your account yet ?
