@bmarty I think we already had this weird issue before, no?
I get this quite regularly. Is there anything I can do when it happens to help track it down? (I'm using nightly)

Priority raised as notifications are flagged as chronic issues
FYI, this issue is still persisting for me and it's affecting my phone battery because if I leave my phone out of earshot and receive a DM, then it keeps vibrating every few seconds to minutes until my phone battery is drained.
Note that I'm having issues with exactly the same DMs that I talked to Adam about a few months ago where I wasn't receiving any notifications. I wonder if the fix for that created this issue?
my current theory is that something is triggering unnecessary pushes to the device (which in turn wakes it up), such as read receipts or activity in muted rooms

at least in my case, the problem is not unnecessary pushes (each message in a silent room is supposed to cause a push) but rather that my phone bings/vibrates on every push.
I'm going to upgrade this issue to "Occasional" as some people (like me) are experiencing it every day
Could someone please have a look at this issues? It's open for a year and it is really annoying and impacting battery life.
My Element constantly rings, sometimes multiple times a minute, just because of a single unread message in a chat which isn't muted. That's simply unacceptable. I had to completly mute the app now, which is obviously impacting the UX as well, because I do want to get notified for some chats.
