Abstract:
Technologies for filtering notification content based on event type are provided. The disclosed techniques include causing a plurality of notifications to be presented on a computing device, where the plurality of notifications includes a first notification of a first event type and a second notification of a second event type that is different than the first event type. A plurality of filters is caused to be presented on the computing device, where the plurality of filters includes a first filter that is associated with one or more first event types and a second filter that is associated with one or more second event types. An input that selects the first filter is then received. In response to receiving the input, the one or more first event types are identified. A strict subset of the plurality of notifications that are of one or more of the one or more first event types is identified from among the plurality of notifications. The strict subset of the plurality of notifications is then caused to be presented on the computing device without causing any notifications outside of the strict subset to be presented on the computing device.
