Abstract

Embodiments of methods, systems, and storage medium associated with selective content delivery to a client device are disclosed herein. In one instance, the method may include sending by a computing device a lock mode signal to a messaging service hosted by a second computing device, that the computing device has entered a notification lock mode of operation that restricts the computing device from receiving at least some messages from the messaging service; and maintaining a communications connection between the computing device and the messaging service during the notification lock mode of operation of the computing device despite severing a logical connection between the messaging service and an application operating on the computing device. The logical connection was used to enable the message delivery from the messaging service to the application. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
