Can you give an example? Like I know how to create a notification, why would I want the bell thing in my app?

Let's take facebook as an example - facebook can send notifications for many different actions, such as receiving friend invite, someone accepting your friend request, someone mentions you in their post, a friend posts something on their wall, a friend goes live, etc. Under this menu, facebook would allow me to choose only the actions i'm really interested in. For example I only want to receive notification when someone mentions me or accepts my friend request, but not for any of the other actions, because I consider them to be unnecessary distractions.
