Abstract:

Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include a communication system accessing a request received from an application on a user device to log into a primary platform of a communication system using a user account. In response to detecting the request as an unrecognized login attempt, that the user account also grants access to a secondary platform of the communication system, and that settings of the user account include enabled push notifications via the secondary platform, the communication system provides a notification for display to a user of the user account via the secondary platform.
