I'd still uninstall the app.

Would you uninstall Uber if they sent you a coupon via push notification?

I've uninstalled lots of apps when they've sent coupons via notifications. Notifications are to notify me about things I need to act on. They are not a marketing channel. So, yes.

If you had the option to block the marketing notifications but still receive the important ones, would you do that?

While I got no uber - totally. The taxi service I use sends stuff (receipts mostly) to email - it works well.

Don't have it installed in the first place. Why feed Uber any business at all? It's a trash company.

Does your app provide real world value like ubers or is it just Tinder for Dogs?
