Abstract
Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein for handling incoming communications. In an implementation, an application receives a notification of an incoming communication for which a related application may have also received a related notification of the incoming communication. Prior to surfacing an indication of the incoming communication in a user interface, the application ascertains whether or not the related application will surface a related indication. If so, the application suppresses its own indication in favor of the related application. If not, the application surfaces its own indication.
