See Ecosystem of Beeps, and riff off that. Beeps should imply things. Like crosswalk tones aren't just beeps! And lots about using visible warnings as well, and the glanceable nature of mobiles; you can't have stuff disappear after a few seconds. What if the user was asleep, or busy, and checks in 2 minutes, or 3 hours? It better still be there on screen.

Alarm fatigue, even cropping up in hospitals, killed people in plane crashes, etc. Good for intro or can I bake in a sentence or two in the solution here? http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/26.35.html#subj15

For here, means "don't beep routinely." Make it matter, or users might ignore important ones. Anecdotally encountered people who don't wake up to alarms because it's the same beep as an SMS, which they become habituated to.
