is it safe to grant apps notification access and accessibility when they request them>? accessibility gives apps authority to 'observe your actions' while notification access allows apps to 'read all notifications...and be able to dismiss notifications or trigger actions buttons they contain'?
Yes it is safe. It is for allowing the app to do its function.

It seem push notification does not work well with Mate 7... for instance... whatsapp web.. in order for it to read messages at all I need to push the power button constantly to wake it up from sleep..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/help/push-notification-data-screen-off-t2985489
I don't know if this has been solved but their is a option on mate 7 which allows you to toggle between notification push and how you handle it when screen is off.
Go into protected apps and enable it and make sure notification manager is set to allow.
i dont see notification manager in protected app.
it's in settings.
Under "privacy & security" you'll see Notification manager and Protected Apps.
From main settings i have only security option no privacy&security.Mine mate 7 is 09-european version.
I'd suggest taking a look at your settings again.
Under "Privacy & Security" section you have:
- Location Access
- Do not disturb
- Notification Manager
- Protected Apps
- Security
- Fingerprint ID
- Backup & Reset
Yes i was in restricted and notification options but there is no option to set notification manager to allow,notify or restrict options.Notification manager is not on the list of apps for which you can set this 3 options or notification manager is with some other name in the main list.

I have misunderstand you.I was thinking thet notification manager have its own settings under restricted apps menu.
Every day i am trying to find solution what to do ,to preserve battery life and i have tried all settings combinations.
Finaly when i have turned off Bluetooth my battery life have more then 2 dayes.I think thet bluetooth eating battery a lot.
Doesn't happen with Kik messenger.
On an Oneplus 2, using OxygenOS, I revoke all data sensitive rights from the "Google Play services" and "Google App" apps for privacy. It seems most Google apps don't rely strongly in these background services. Google Maps for example is still working fine, given the right to use Location itself.
Now there is a notification every some hours, that the service app will not work well without those rights and user experience will suffer.
So I also revoke both service apps of notifications (by checking Settings -> Apps -> App info -> Notifications -> Block all).
However, the notifications still occur.
-How can those apps circumvent the notification block?
-Maybe the notification is issued by the system on insufficent rights, and not the application itself?
-How can I find out how to block those annoying notifications?
-Maybe those apps abuse another service app to place their notification, if so how can I find this linkage?
My Nexus 5 has not been rooted, but if I need to root it, I will do so. I would like to be able to filter on a per-app basis all notifications. For example, I have Ultimate Rotation Control and Custom Quick Settings installed. Both place notifications on the lock screen. I would like to eliminate these notifications from the lock screen without blocking other notifications from these apps or other lock screen notifications. If possible, I would like to be able to save the filters as profiles so I can easily change them.
Can anyone recommend an app for per-app notification filtering?

Xnotifications. Or GravityBox. But for those you'll need both root and the Xposed Framework.
Before you do any of those though, doesn't your stock ROM give you the option to block certain notifications on the lockscreen?

Thanks for the reply. I'll take a look at your suggestions.

There is no mechanism to specifically block notifications from appearing on the lock screen. It's possible to "hide sensitive content", but the notification still appears, taking up just as much space. Other than that, the only choice is to block all notifications. It's an incredibly stupid oversight for android to not provide a mechanism for per-app blocking of lock screen notifications. Another gripe is the silly requirement for a notification to be in the notification bar or solely to enable an app to listen in the background. There should be a setting to hide such notifications. (Hiding should be the default.)

I have the option to hide such notifications in the lock screen. But I'm running a custom ROM. Seeing that you're not rooted, I'm assuming your still on stock also. Which is pretty surprising seeing that you have a Nexus 5. Which is almost synonymous with root and custom ROMS.
Android 12 has added additional privacy reminders/safeguards which I respect highly.
However, I utilize a third party password generator and manager. This manager has autofill process that requires accessibility access. This triggers a notification ~2 per week reminding me that I have given up some privacy:

These cannot be turned off, I understand why. But as an "advanced" user is there any way to manually disable these or whitelist Bitwarden from these.
Whether using ADB or some other method.
Did you find a way to get rid of those notifications?
I'm interested in getting rid of this too.
I use Greenify and the warning pops up every couple of days.
There's no "forever" option on snoozing the notification.
Anyone? I get them too, for Bitdefender. Very annoying
Use an app called AutoNotification
I've looked through app settings and notification settings and could only find the option to globally disable sensitive notifications to show on lock-screen.
That said I want messages and the like to continue to show on lockscreen but I don't want my calendar notifications to show up.
