The vast majority of my flight planning involves NOTAMs only for today. Is there a way of changing the stored default, so that I can set it to show only today's ones? So that I don't have to change the filter every time I view the list?

Either set it precisely, which will narrow down NOTAM and other briefing information as much as possible, or set it to Today, which will narrow the briefing information down a bit.

I must say, two days seems an odd default. If I have a flight tomorrow as well, I'll check tomorrow's NOTAMs tomorrow as well in case a new one has come out in the meantime. But then I'll get the next day's ones as well. I realise that two day's worth of NOTAMs could be helpful for planning a two-day trip when the second day is without access to the internet, but I'm surprised that that is a frequent enough use case to make it the default.
