An instance of a visual notification is identified on a display device. The visual notification is determined to be interfering with the output of the application on the display device. User response to the output of the application is monitored. An assessment is made, based on the monitoring, of an effectiveness of the output of the application. It is determined, based on the assessment, that there exists a failure of the effectiveness of the output of the application. A remediation action is performed in response to the determined failure. The remediation action may include removal of the instance of the visual notification, terminating a parent process of the instance of the visual notification, or restarting the electronic device.
