RescueTime alerts their users in a push notification that they’ve been slacking off

RescueTime is a time management tool that helps businesses and individuals understand if they’re productively utilizing their time during the work day. In this example, RescueTime sends an alert whenever their users visit distracting apps / websites that are over an hour during their day.

If a user clicks through on the notification, it leads to their dashboard that lets them know their overall productivity score and helps them be more mindful of how to better utilize their time.

Why we think this push notification is good:

This notification feels like it’s an extension of the app itself because it’s helping shape your habits and course correct if you’ve veered off track for the day. Any push notifications that helps reinforce habits that a customer is paying to help build are high value in our opinion.
