How to send a notification when a device connects to a Wi-Fi network without an app?
I was staying in a hotel last week and when I connected to their Wi-Fi network with my iPhone 4S, after agreeing on their terms and conditions (you must choose their network and this takes you automatically to the hotel's site where you agree some terms to complete the connection) a push notification trying to sell something came into my screen; this notification had "accept" and "later" buttons. Does anyone know how this happened, is it a notification launched by the website or sent directly though the Wi-Fi network? I didn't have any apps related to the hotel which may have launched it.
Some websites have fake notifications. They're really just pop-up advertisements disguised as notifications. Yesterday I was on a website and it said "free iPad offer" and then had "accept" and "ignore" as options. I could tell by the way the box looked it was just something the website was saying to me and I ignored it.
As you said it was a PUSH notification. THEY pushed it to YOUR device ( is what PUSH means) Just decline the thing (later) and unistall it when you no longer need their network.
- Would you get a notification on your iPhone if your Apple ID was used to log into another device? I'm unsure if I have unknowingly given my Apple ID to a scammer in the past, but I curious would I have received a notifcation on my iPhone, in a form of a text or pop up? I've heard that before and I wanted to make sure. Even if you didn't have two-factor authentication on.

- Will my jailbreak on one device transfer to another device via iTunes? So I bought an iPhone 5 today and I'm afraid to sync it to my Apple ID/ iTunes because my 8GB iPod is also synced to that iTunes account and its jailbroken. I don't want my jailbroken iPod to affect my iPhone 5. Will it affect it? I don't think it will but I just want to make sure before I sync it for the first time.
- What is the device called that connects your iphone to your car stereo to play music? I want to buy the device that connects your iphone to your car stereo to play music that is on your phone (such as pandora). I need it for my long drive back to college. p.s. I just got an iphone and i'm iphone-illiterate.
