“…In a more recent in-thewild study [18], further proof is provided that device ringer mode is not correlated to notification response time, and that additionally, since this study attempted to determine the actual modality that was used to deliver the notification (depending on ringer mode and programmed modality), only vibration seemed to correlate negatively with response times. This finding is consistent with another recent study (although the focus was aimed at a specific type of notification) [19]. Finally, it should be noted that for the reasons de-…”

In smart spaces with connected smart lighting, there is an opportunity to deliver smartphone notifications using peripheral light, along with using standard smartphone modalities such as sound, vibration and LEDs, in order to help a user perceive them without constantly monitoring their mobile device. In this paper, we examine the effectiveness of on-device and extra-device modalities through smart lighting. We address a gap in literature by establishing a foundation that explains the role of modalities with which a notification is delivered on a mobile device. For this purpose, we conducted two ecologically valid and carefully designed experiments in a controlled environment that simulates multitasking in a smart home environment, and demonstrate that modality preferences are dependent on the environment context, by analysing subjective user data through a machine learning approach. We derive a set of guidelines for choosing notification modalities and set future research directions.

“…This leads us to believe that Google should have used much stronger caching policies when implementing Nearby Notifications and more generally that the side effects of background services operating at this scale need to be more carefully considered. Other research has discussed the need to make peripheral interactions more apparent to a device's user [13,14], and we believe this argument should extend to external devices, especially for interactions not explicitly initiated by the user.…”
