Are you talking about in the Feed?

If so, did you try swiping left on the notification?

Yes,

I swipe left and hit the red delete and it just returns.

Also if I hold it down I can pick what notification I want deleted but the same thing, it just returns the notification..

I'm tagging the mods - @BrookeN , @JamesC , @ShayneS - in hopes one of them will follow up.

Are you using iOS or Android? What version of the app do you have installed?

Android.

The app is up to date, I don't know what number it is.

Ok. I use iOS, so my results won't apply to you.

You can see the app version by pressing the profile button in the top left, and then pressing about. I am running 6.4.2.

Even though you can't delete them, you can still filter them out so you don't see them. Press the three dots in the upper right of the feed page, and then press "Feed Settings". Press "Event Types" and scroll down to "Mode Change".

I unselected "mode changes" ... they are still there.

I have four notifications showing and when I keep my finger on it to delete them and then delete them they just stay there..

Did you remember to press save after you unselected it?

No... but I did now. LOL

now it just shows the spinning "refresh circle"

Spinning and spinning...

So I put it back,that doesn't seem Like a fix.

I really don't want to hide anything I just want that app to work correctly.
