US Patent 10581784 Method and apparatus for adding notification objects

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for generating a user-targeting alert notification based on an existing communication message. The system improves significantly over previous systems by providing more efficient and expeditious user operation. A computing device receives an instruction to generate a user-targeting alert notification based on an existing communication message. In response to determining that a body of the existing message indicates a target user in a designated format, the computing device adds the target user as a recipient of the user-targeting alert notification, generates the notification based on the body of the existing communication message, and sends the notification to the recipient.
