Notification center is an alert system to deal with push and local notification for iOS5 or later and OSX 10.8 or later. I think it is an amazing feature for apple device but as the number of your installed app grown, your notification center may fill with noice and the notified feature may less likely hit the important thing. And here is some tricks that I use to reduce the noices:
- pay attention to your notification center and mark the noicy app then go to setting > notificafion center to mute or change that app
Some improvement ideas:
- notification should be smart enough to tell the important messages and notify users with differrence sound length
- for apple device users should have more option on setting the notificafion center to optimize this feature
