High "Discarded - Disabled" metrics for Location Notifications

Hi everyone,

I've run into an issue with push notifications in our app, specifically those related to the location push service extension. In the Push Notifications Console, there's a high number of notifications marked as “Discarded - Disabled” under Location Notifications. I'm trying to figure out what's causing this. We are seeing thousands of “Discarded - Disabled” for location but the other push types are being discarded in much smaller numbers (in the tens).

Here's what I need help with:

What do the different 'Discarded' categories mean in push notifications? Which are normal and which are red flags? Why are so many Location Notifications being discarded as 'Disabled'? Is this a common device setting issue? Any tips on reducing these discarded notifications, especially for location-based services? Would really appreciate your insights or any pointers towards relevant resources!

Thanks! LC
