It's not a problem; it's an intense frustration. It is irritating to be told "here's a new message X" at your desk, only to see and hear the same notification "new message X" on a phone within a few seconds. Your phone even vibrates, as if to demand your attention and chide you for not acknowledging the message. It's an additional distraction when we're all short on time. My previous work used a system which queued notifications for delivery. The logic was something along those lines: - send notifications for urgent items, e.g. incoming calls, immediately to all devices
- if there are no active devices, send all notifications immediately
- otherwise send to all active devices st internally along with testers. I ended up tweaking this; it took us a few tries to get it right. I'd be flabbergasted if Facebook messenger, iChat, discord et al haven't done something similar. |
