Correct me if I’m wrong, but currently it’s only possible to block notifications based on filters while allowing the rest to go through. It would be cool to be able to do the opposite as well: block notifications by default but allow some of them go through based on a filter.

No wonder I tried to use the invert Regex in the custom rules and it fails. Can anyone else confirm this is true?

I really need this as well, my job uses an app for communication, I already have another app on my phone that’s set to only allows notifications from the work app if it contains the names of my bosses, or my name, but the pebble app was allowing every message through like ones from co-workers that had nothing to do with me so I had to turn off notifications for my work app because of this.
