OnePlus admits it sent bizarre notifications to OnePlus 7 Pro owners

Owners of OnePlus 7 Pro phones have randomly received several weird notifications, causing consternation and concerns about security.

OnePlus tweeted about the mix-up after OnePlus phone owners started posting pictures of the strange notifications, concerned there was a security issue.

OnePlus says it has been carrying out an internal test, where a global push notification was accidentally sent out to some OnePlus 7 Pro owners. “We would like to apologize for any difficulties, and assure you that our team is currently investigating the error,” OnePlus wrote. The company soon followed up the tweet with more information on its official forum.

The tests were apparently routine aspects of the future Android Q software update from OnePlus, and it would normally use the push notification system to gain feedback. OnePlus reassures those who own its phones that there was no risk to personal data, and that it is putting new processes in place to make sure the same problem cannot happen again.
