Interface to allow display of IoT device messages on a central screen

A system, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:
• receive configuration information associated with delivering Internet of Things (IoT) device notifications to a network-connected television device;
• generate at least one rule, based on the configuration information, including a delivery action to perform for an incoming IoT device notification;
• receive availability information associated with the network-connected television device;
• receive an IoT device notification in association with a network-connected IoT device;
• evaluate the rule for determining the delivery action;
• and
• perform the delivery action to deliver the IoT device notification to the network-connected television device,
• wherein prior to receiving the IoT device notification, the instructions further cause the system to share the availability information with the IoT device.

A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:

• receive availability information associated with the network-connected television device;
• receive an IoT device notification in association with a network-connected IoT device;
• evaluate the rule for determining the delivery action;
• and
• perform the delivery action to deliver the IoT device notification to the network-connected television device,
• wherein, prior to the receiving of the IoT device notification, the instructions further cause the computer to share the availability information with the IoT device.
