Like a lot of users, I have recently run into snap issues where it keeps telling giving me notifications that the apps I'm using will close in 14 days, 13, 12, etc... There's a lot of questions already on here about why this is happening, and after reading those I now understand why it's happening (in particular this very well written answer was quite helpful).
My understanding is that when snap needs to update, it:
- continuously tries to update if the app is not in use
- after 0 days, starts pushing notifications to the user as a warning if it can't
- after 14 days, forcibly kills the existing app and updates
The particular apps in question for me are vscode, brave and snap-store. The last one might arguably be a bug, but the other two are just because I run a desktop system and am in the habit of leaving those apps open for days or weeks at a time. In this case, the warnings are actually useful to me. With all that background set up though, here's my actual question:
- I guess just to confirm my assumptions, is my understanding of snap's default behavior (above) correct?
- Is there any way to adjust either or both of the 0, 14 day values in a configuration somewhere? Bonus points if that configuration can be done on a per-app basis.
- If there isn't that configuration presently existing, where would I go to submit a feature request (or to upvote an existing one)
(P.S. I am aware that notifications can be fully suppressed. that is not what I am looking for)
