We are still coding the ALERTS feature for lottodds and should be done soon. But I can provide you with a really cool feature on the AiPick3 app.
This new feature will allow you to TEST your chosen filters among one or more States.
EMAIL & SMS ALERTS
Pick3 AERT System Overview
The Pick3 AERT (Alert, Email, Record, Track) system is a user-friendly tool designed to help lottery enthusiasts evaluate the effectiveness of their number filtering strategies by tracking filtered Pick3 numbers against actual drawing outcomes. It enables users to monitor whether their selected filters (which categorize numbers as "red" for high-risk/excluded and "green" for viable/included) consistently produce winning combinations over time. The system focuses on automation, accuracy, and customizable notifications, with a core "Email Alert" popup interface that visualizes tracking data.
Key Features of the Pick3 AERT System
Filter Recording: Automatically captures and stores the specific filters applied by the user to categorize and reduce the pool of red (excluded/high-risk) and green (included/viable) numbers. This includes details like filter criteria (e.g., hot/cold trends, sum ranges, or parity rules) for later analysis and strategy refinement.
Automated Number Insertion and Storage: Seamlessly pulls the filtered red and green numbers from the main display and inserts them into the Email Alert popup. These numbers are stored in a dated database, keyed to the upcoming Pick3 drawing date and time, allowing for easy historical reference and pattern identification.
Real-Time Winner Comparison: Continuously monitors official Pick3 drawing results and compares them against the stored filtered numbers in the popup's database. It checks for exact matches or partial hits (configurable by user preference) to determine if any stored green numbers align with the winning combination.
Win/Loss Recording: For each drawing, logs the outcome as a "Win" if there's a match (highlighting the exact matching numbers) or a "Loss" if no match occurs. This includes visual indicators in the popup (e.g., green checkmarks for wins, red X's for losses) and detailed notes on why a loss happened (e.g., "Missed by one digit").
Performance Metrics and Counting: Aggregates and displays win/loss counts by drawing date, time, and filter set. Users can view summaries such as total wins/losses, win rate percentages, and trends over time (e.g., "5 wins out of 20 draws using Filter Set A"). This helps users assess if their filters are producing "many wins" and adjust strategies accordingly.
Customizable Alerts on Matches: When a win is detected, instantly sends notifications via email, SMS, or both, based on user-selected preferences. Alerts include details like the winning number, matched filtered numbers, drawing date/time, and a link to view full results in the popup. Users can configure alert thresholds (e.g., only for full matches) and delivery options during setup.
Process Control and Opt-Out: Includes a prominent "Stop All Processes" button in the popup, which immediately halts all tracking, comparisons, storage, and alerts for future drawings. This ensures user control and privacy, with an option to resume later.
Visual Design of the Email Alert Popup
The Email Alert popup is a clean, intuitive modal window (approximately 600x400 pixels) that appears on-screen or within a web/app interface upon user activation or automated trigger. It uses a modern, lottery-themed design with a dark background for contrast, green accents for positive elements (e.g., wins and viable numbers), and red for negatives (e.g., losses and excluded numbers). Key elements include:
- Header: Bold title "Pick3 AERT Alert" with the current drawing date/time and a close button.
- Filter Summary Section: A collapsible panel showing recorded filters (e.g., "Filter: Even Sum > 10; Excluded Reds: 1,3,5").
- Number Display Grid: A table auto-populated with green (viable) and red (excluded) numbers, sorted by relevance, with columns for "Number", "Status", and "Match History".
- Results Tracker: A timeline or chart showing recent wins/losses (e.g., bar graph with win/loss bars by date), updated in real-time.
- Alert Controls: Dropdowns for selecting email/SMS/both, with a "Test Alert" button and the "Stop All Processes" button prominently in red.
- Footer: Summary stats (e.g., "Wins: 3 | Losses: 7 | Win Rate: 30%") and a "Export Data" button for CSV reports.
This design prioritizes usability, with responsive elements for mobile/desktop, tooltips for explanations, and accessibility features like high-contrast text and keyboard navigation.—users interact via simple clicks and selections to set up and manage tracking.
