receiving notification when push notification is sent and app is open.

[mehtashail]

I have push notifications working correctly. However when the user is within the app the do not get push notifications. Is there a way to notify/alert the user if they receive a message when they are in the app. Is this expected behavior?

Hi,

You can run any code on Push notification event, including alert. By default, you will see a pop-up message if the application is running. Please check whether you have a working application that writes device data to Database: http://docs.appery.io/tutorials/sendi...

Katya -
I would presume it does because push notifications work. I can even use the appery's ui to push notifications out successfully. I just dont get an alert when I am using the application. For "Push notification" event I have it setup to navigate to a page. But that doesnt happen in any case.

thanks

Hi Mehtashail,

We have tested your case with push notification and it's working as expected.

The use case:
ol
liOpen application on the page (which is have a push notification handler)./li

liSend notification./li

liAlert in application will immediately appears./li
/ol
May be your reason is that you are currently on another page (which is don't have push notification event handler)?

Please check it out.

And if you have a problem (may be it's related to your particular app) please share your app with us and we will take a look.

Regards.

So every page in the app will need to have push event handling? Is this true for the "resume" action as well? I didnt quite gather that from the docs.

thanks

Hi Shail,

Yes, you would need to handle Push on every page. Let us know if you have any problems.
