This forces you to check them by swiping down the notification bar on the phone screen.
This is when your annoyance doubles as you have to check each messages or mails by tapping on different apps. Moreover, to open the apps, you have to search a particular app from the long list of apps you have downloaded on your Android phone. If you are a pro user, you must have downloaded a number of apps for different purpose. You wish you could have used shortcut to access your favourite apps or frequently used apps.
