It would be great to have the option to receive notifications from preferred methods (Android notification by the app, email, sms, etc) to be warn when a successful connection is made to my account. Also, for even better security, I wish I could be warn for numerous failed attempts (enough to consider it made by possible hackers) made in a short amount of time.
This way a user can be aware of possible upcoming problems and take preventing actions.
