Abstract: A push notification distribution system centralizes the management and delivery of push notifications to applications executing on electronic devices. Registration requests to register applications for push notifications may be aggregated and sent as an aggregated registration request. The delivery priority of push notifications may be managed according to specified preferences. Upon receiving a push notification intended for an electronic device, a delivery priority of the push notification may be changed if an application identifier associated with the push notification is found on a list of application identifiers with designed delivery priorities.

Abstract: This application sets forth techniques for managing phone number-based user accounts. According to some embodiments, a server computing device can be configured to carry out the steps of (1) receiving, from a first client computing device, a request to create a user account based on a phone number, (2) in response to authenticating that the first client computing device is associated with the phone number: creating the user account based on the phone number, creating a hidden contact address based on the phone number, and assigning the hidden contact address to the user account, and (3) in response to receiving a notification that a second client computing device is associated with the phone number: requiring the user account to be updated to be based on a different phone number, or assigning, to the user account, a visible contact address based on the phone number.

Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide for receiving a registration request for registering and associating phone numbers for at least one service on a particular device, where the registration request includes information related to a phone authentication certificate (PAC) that was generated for the particular device. The PAC authenticates that each of the phone numbers is associated with the particular device. The subject system performs an authentication of user identifiers associated with the particular device based at least on the PAC. The subject system performs a registration of at least one service for the particular device using the authenticated user identifiers, in which the registration includes at least one respective handle for accessing the at least one service via each respective user identifier. The subject system transmits to the particular device, information related to the at least one respective handle for accessing the service via each respective user identifier.
