🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A browser extension that intercepts and blocks specific notification payloads from real estate apps.
  2. A third-party notification manager app that allows users to override app-specific notification permissions.
  3. A community-driven bug tracking dashboard for popular apps to pressure developers to fix specific UI/UX failures.
