What are Notifications and How do They Work?

from Learn About Technology Hosted by Bob Cohen

A notification is a message, email, icon, or another symbol that appears when an application wants you to pay attention. Notifications are a way to let you know that something new has happened so you don't miss anything that might be worth your attention and appears whether you are using an application or not. An application can use notifications to let you know things that are happening when you're not using it, so you don't miss important information or activity that's taking place in the app. Visit the webpage for the text version of this podcast: https://www.bobology.com/public/What-is-a-Notification.cfm
