Notification Effect

Entering an app with the intent of completing a task only to be distracted by the in-app notification. You then leave the app only to return again to try and accomplish your original task.

I went on Twitter to send a DM but I fell victim to the notification effect when I saw that little counter. Only once I closed the app did I remember what I originally needed to do.
