Ongoing Notifications

[TheNewsHQ]

Since Beta 1 Samsung has ignored the thing that's called "Ongoing Notifications" such as Weather temperatures that sits on your notification which is needed, up until Beta 1 when you pressed clear all notifications will swipe away but not the ongoing notifications, which is how it should be, but now since Beta 1 and now with Beta 2 when you press clear even the ongoing notifications will be dismissed which is wrong and should be fixed and reversed back as before OneUI 7 beta

I kind of disagree because some of those ongoing notifications were incredibly annoying and could not be dismissed. Maybe there's a happy medium? Like a toggle in a setting somewhere that lets you dismiss them like is currently happening or not, like before the beta. Either way, I'd personally rather it be like it is now, than like it was.

It could be like in OneUI 6 where you can just swipe it away but it shouldn't be swiped away when clicking the clear all button

Agreed!

Well now we're on beta 3 and this is still an issue.

[TheNewsHQ]

Unfortunately they didn't fix this, hopefully in Beta 4 or stable

[KSal]

Just seems like a really basic thing to miss, hopefully they get it done.

They claimed above that it'll be fixed so let's wait and see
