Actionable Notification System with Embedded Action Buttons
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional push notifications lack versatility, only allowing users to redirect to associated apps without providing additional action options, limiting user interaction beyond simple app launching.
Innovation Solution
The development of an actionable notification system that enables users to perform specific actions directly from push notifications, such as saving deals, rescheduling events, or authorizing transactions, through the inclusion of action buttons within the notification interface.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional push notifications are used, then the notification system is simple and easy to implement, but the user interaction capability is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The notification system is enhanced to perform multiple functions beyond simple information display. Action buttons are integrated into the notification interface, enabling users to perform actions such as saving deals, rescheduling events, and authorizing transactions directly from the notification without opening the associated application. This multi-functionality resolves the contradiction by significantly improving user interaction capability while maintaining relative system simplicity through standardized implementation.
2Ease of operation
If action buttons are added to push notifications, then user convenience and engagement are improved, but the notification interface complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The notification interface is segmented into distinct functional elements: the notification content area and the action button area. This segmentation allows the action buttons to be added as modular components without fundamentally redesigning the entire notification system. The action buttons are discrete, standardized elements that can be independently managed, which improves user convenience while controlling interface complexity through structured organization.
Solution Approach 2:
Action buttons are pre-configured with specific actions and parameters before the notification is displayed. The system prepares multiple possible action buttons in advance, each with predefined functionality (e.g., save deal, reschedule, authorize). When the notification is shown, users can immediately select from these pre-prepared actions without needing to navigate to the application first. This preliminary preparation of action options enhances user convenience while keeping the interface relatively simple through standardized pre-configured elements.

AI summary
The ACTIONABLE NOTIFICATIONS APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“ACNO”) transforms inputs such as actionable notification enrollment input, action input, and trigger messages via ACNO components into actionable notification message output. In one embodiment, the disclosure describes a processor-implemented actionable notification method, which comprises, receiving an actionable notification enrollment request with a device identification, and criteria for receiving actionable notifications, and receiving an actionable notification trigger message. The method further comprises determining an actionable notification message based on the actionable notification trigger message and the criteria for receiving actionable notifications, and determining actionable notification associated actions. The method further comprises transmitting the actionable notification message and the associated actions, and receiving an action selection from the associated actions, and effecting the action selection.
