Abstract

A computing device determines responsiveness of a user to notification sounds output by the computing device, by determining whether for each notification sound the user acknowledged a notification corresponding to the notification sound on the computing device. The computing device can determine characteristics of the notification sounds output by the computing device. The computing device recommends suggested notification sounds that promote user acknowledgment to notifications, for use in relation to future notifications. The computing device may determine other notification sounds that share the characteristics of the notification sounds for which the user acknowledged the notifications corresponding to the notification sounds on the computing device. The suggested notification sounds can include the other notification sounds, and/or the notification sounds output by the computing device for which the user acknowledged the notifications corresponding to the notification sounds on the computing device.
