We are excited to ship more customizable and granular control over the default subscriber preferences and change the visibility of the different preferences controls.

### Preference on all levels

The new preference control allows the following scenario:

- A developer specifies the default behavior in the code

- A non-technical team member can override the behavior using the dashboard

- A subscriber can change the default preference behavior using the <Inbox /> component or API.

### Common usecases

- Hiding critical workflows from the user preferences

- Setting some channels as on or off by default for given workflows

- Disable the ability to control the code-set settings from the UI for system-critical workflow and only manage them in code.
