The problem
Describe precisely the problem you're facing and add screenshots to illustrate
On the the Sunday of summer time to winter time switch, at 10:00, the Advanced Privacy notifications keeps popping up repeatedly until 11:00. In the app itself the reports are succeeding crazily one after the other creating an overlapping and making them unreadable.
This will over-consume battery for one hour, but should not have other impact on the device.
To avoid this situation, user could change time on the device to skip the 10:00 - 11:00 period on this Sunday (or simply turn of the phone during this period).
Steps to reproduce
- Set the time-zone to one with summer time : for instance region = France
- Change date and time to Sunday 2025-10-26 10:10
- Force-stop Advanced-Privacy, and restart it
- observe the issue.
