Abstract: A method for confirming receipt of a redundant notification by a wireless device includes transmitting redundant notifications to the wireless device via different types of networks (e.g., a paging network). A notification is configured to cause the mobile device to wake-up a mobile application that opens a real-time communications session between the mobile device and the server and generates an indication that the mobile device received at least one of the redundant notifications.
Abstract: A notification system that provides a notification to a mobile device over a pager network is described. In some embodiments, the system receives, at an interface device associated with the mobile device, a notification from a server over a radiofrequency communications network, and transmits the notification from the interface device to the mobile device over a short area communications channel, such as a Bluetooth channel.
