Method of providing non-native notifications and system thereof

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method of providing non-native notifications and system thereof. These notifications are generated by non-native applications executing on a physically disjoint source device that is communicatively coupled with a target device via an account in a cloud. An application player executing on the source device is able to capture these non-native notifications. The target device is able to receive and present these non-native notifications to a user. Notifications include alerts, reminders, updates and messages generated by non-native applications. The user does not need to access the non-native applications, or the application player or source device they are executing on to see the non-native notifications. Instead, the user views these non-native notifications at a central location on the target device.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform a method comprising:
communicatively coupling with an electronic device via an account in a cloud; obtaining, via the account in the cloud, a notification that is generated by a non-native application executing on the electronic device and that is captured by a notification tool on the electronic device, wherein the notification tool on the electronic device is configured to capture notifications generated by a plurality of applications executing on the electronic device and to transfer the captured notifications to the account in the cloud; presenting the obtained notification to a user of the computing device, by a message center executing on the computing device; receiving user input in response to the notification, in the message center; and pushing the user input, received in the message center on the computing device to the non-native application executing on the electronic device via the account in the cloud and the notification tool on the electronic device.
