1. A system comprising:

  • a memory; and

    a processor, coupled to the memory, to;

    receive a notification about an activity pertaining to a user, the notification being directed to a first application and a second application, and identity of the user being associated with a token;

    identify a first instance of the first application and a first instance of the second application at a user device of the user;

    determine whether the first instance of the first application and the first instance of the second application are associated with the token;

    responsive to determining that the first instance of the first application and the first instance of the second application are both associated with the token, select one of the first instance of the first application or the first instance of the second application to provide the notification at the user device based on the token and a fingerprint of the token; and

    provide the notification to the selected one of the first instance of the first application or the first instance of the second application at the user device, while preventing duplicate notification to the non-selected application at the user device; and

    select either the first instance of the first application or the first instance of the second application based on a predetermined priority order associated with the respective applications.
