Not really sure where to put this but are the BBC News app alerts supposed to be regionalised?

I’m in Dubai and just had a notification about the Happy Valley final.

Most Sundays I get an alert to watch the Sunday morning programme which is of no use to me. 

I can’t see any way in the app to specify which region I am but find it strange if the whole world just got that alert!

To be honest, your particular location is not the reason that that push notification is weird. The increasingly low bar the BBC has for breaking news alerts has become ridiculous and I know of many people who've just turned a once useful service off due to these kinds of notifications. I don't know why they do it, it only serves to irritate people and turn them away from using a BBC service (sometimes in favour of competitors (though many are equally poor on this front)). A breaking news alert should be for breaking news only - not for promotions, not for puff pieces and not for general news stories.
