Microsoft wants to improve the notification service in Cortana for Windows and Android

We continue with news generated in Build 2016, in this case one that in the long run can be really useful for all users, whether they are Windows 10 or Android and that refers toWindows Notification Service (WNS) in Cortana.

"

We&39;re talking about Microsoft&39;s virtual assistant, Cortana, but it will later work directly through the operating system and refers to a news they revealed within a framework called Future of Notifications: Cloud Action Center and Windows Notification Platform."

Everything was clear and the notifications or rather, the process of how they were carried out, was going to be the star, because from Microsoft they want to include new functions , but more importantly, they bet for developers to use them.

In the first case we refer to the option to eliminate a notification on all devices universally, that is, if we receive a notice on the mobile phone and we dismiss that notification, it will also disappear from our computer, a process that many developers could learn from (_it's for you, Facebook_) to avoid those annoying notices (on phone or PC) even though we have already seen those alerts and have dismissed them.

In the same way, reflection notifications are sought, those that are seen from one device to another, become more used by developers, allowing the user, yes, to be able to silence them if they estimate it through the settings in Cortana or within the application itself.

Logical use of notifications, finally someone realizes

This is a notification improvement process that Microsoft ensures is very easy to implement, as it only requires a couple of lines of code, so it's easy to add to apps by any interested creator.

A new system that works for now independently in Cortana, as we mentioned before, but that is expected to start working directly as Windows 10, both for PC and mobile. _When will it take place?_ That for now is something that is not known, but from Microsoft they assure that they will keep us promptly informed.
