Android:

I have a notice from January. I read it. I want it deleted.

Years ago i figured out how to do it once, with much difficulty, but I didn't remember how I did it and i can't find it again.

I pushed all the buttons.

how do I delete a notice that I have read so the 'notices' button goes back to not showing any?

I don't think there is. Sometimes these happen, even on PC/Mac. There one would remove the offending xml file, but that's not possible here.

A reset option would be nice here.

I had assumed that when the messages were persistent on my PC it had something to do with the server. But that might be a complete red herring.

Only thing I could think of was to ask for a reset option in Android's manager, so I did that: #5539

Well, I feel better now that I'm not entirely missing an easy solution...

Thank you
