Notification Centre Primer Tutorial<\/p><\/div>\n

There will be people out there who can not fault the wonder of the modern smart (mobile) device. There will also be people out there that find the smart mobile device (iPhone, Android, Blackberry etcetera) a big source of distraction<\/i>. And what if there is a source of distraction<\/i> at just the wrong time while using the source of distraction<\/i> for online (“net”) banking, which uses …<\/p>\n


\nTwo Factor Authentication
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

… to head off hacking issues by involving two pieces of computer equipment to complete the transaction, that second piece of equipment normally receiving a Notification<\/i> to send a code the user uses back at the first piece of equipment to complete the transaction securely in the minds of the user and the bank?<\/p>\n

By that time the “Screen Saver” on both devices is likely to have clicked over, and that little Notification<\/i> on the right hand iPhone<\/i> will have disappeared from its top of screen original position. How do you get it back, at least on an iPhone?<\/p>\n


\nFor iOS (ie. iPad and iPhone) swipe from top left diagonally down and to the left to access the iOS Notification Centre<\/i>
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

There will be your Notification<\/i> with that all important Two Factor Authentication<\/i> code by which to satisfy and unlock the transaction (hopefully within the bank’s software’s allowable time)<\/font> to complete the transaction and save you the angst of a call centre call or angry customer or angry client. The Notification Centre<\/i> “the Cruella de Vil of distracting distracters”, to our rescue!<\/p>\n
