Embodiment Construction

[0022] This document discloses methods, systems, and devices that enable application notification throttling. figure 1 is a block diagram of an environment in which the notification throttle system, or simply "throttle system" operates. In some embodiments, system 100 is an electronic device (eg, an electronic tablet or smartphone). Electronic device 100 includes display 102, which may be a display device as further described in this disclosure. The electronic device 100 also includes a notification throttling system 110 . The notification throttling system 110 may be configured on the electronic device 100 to perform application notification throttling. In some embodiments, the notification throttling system includes both software (eg, instructions) and hardware (eg, circuitry) components. Software components may be executed by hardware (eg, control circuitry) to perform the further described actions.

[0023] System 100 has a number of applications installed, including a...

Abstract

An electronic device is configured with a notification throttling system. The notification throttling system obtains a set of priorities for a plurality of applications that are installed on the electronic device and launched for alerting a user via a notification. The set of priorities specifies a relative importance for each particular application in the plurality of applications. The notification throttling system throttles application alerts presented by the user device for notifications generated for the application based on the relative importance of each particular application as specified by the set of priorities.

Description

Background technique [0001] Currently available electronic devices (eg, smartphones and electronic tablets) enable applications to generate notifications that are displayed on the device's screen (eg, locked or unlocked screen). This feature enables users to quickly review information updates contained in notifications from various applications (for example, which updates or other updates the user missed), and can quickly and easily determine whether the user needs to take action on a specific notification. Contents of the invention [0002] When a device has a large number of apps installed, these apps can generate a large number of notifications, which causes many problems. For example, if there are 200 applications installed on the device, in some cases, these applications will generate more than one hundred notifications within a relatively short amount of time (eg, one minute, one hour, or another period of time). This problem is compounded if the user does not dismiss...
