  • Patent number: 10664330
    Abstract: Systems and methods for causing an in-application message to be presented to a user of a software application can send message data to the software application via a push notification and via a redundant communication sent over a data network. If the push notification is delivered to the software application first, information in the push notification is used to present the in-application message to the user and the later arriving redundant communication over the data network is ignored. Similarly, if the redundant communication via the data network arrives first, information in that communication is used to present the in-application message to the user, and the later arriving push notification is ignored.

  • Patent number: 10649825
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for managing predetermined functions on a mobile device within a moving vehicle, the mobile device having an operating system (OS) that includes an event API installed therein that is configured for two-way communication with an external control device, the control device being installed within the vehicle and further configured to communicate with a software application installed and running in memory resident on the mobile device. In response to initiation of a predetermined function on the mobile device, a notification message is transmitted by the event API to the control device. The control device then communicates with the software application to determine a desired action for the mobile device to take with respect to the predetermined function. The control device then instructs the mobile device on the action to take on the predetermined function by transmitting an action message to the event API.
