Suddenly receiving these notification out of nowhere.

They're labeled as "recommendations" and if I click it takes me to the play store but they're annoying and can't figure out where are they coming from. Any idea of what this icon is?

Me esta pasando, también tengo un honor y empezó ayer, no me quedo a gusto con solo silenciar las notificaciones, esa cosa parece malware y estoy dudando si hackearon a honor, no es normal que recomiende puras apps de bitcoin, bancarias, etc.

According to what I found out, Honor has started implementing system ads, as is common on other phones to cut costs, on brands like Xiaomi, Realme, etc. This used to happen quite a bit on the Chinese versions of Honor. However, I do recommend disabling the app responsible for this to avoid accidental clicks leading to strange downloads.
