What is Push notifications

What it is

Notifications that reach a phone or computer even when the app or tab is closed: a new message, a stream starting, an order.

How we use it

In Peregovorka pushes reach each device without duplicates: while a person reads a chat on one device, the others get nothing. Sound can be muted per conversation.

Where it helps a business

  • A person should learn about a new message, an order or a stream starting even when the app is closed.
  • Notifications must not annoy: one event, one notification, not five across every device.

How we use it

  • Peregovorka. Pushes reach each device without duplicates: while a person reads a chat on one device, the others get nothing. Sound can be muted per conversation.
  • Notifications in Telegram. In many tasks a bot message plays the role of a push: the IT help desk reminds the assignee about a visit 30, 15, 10 and 5 minutes ahead, and the login bot tells the owner about a login from a new address and about a stream starting.

Common problems

  • Duplicates on every device. The person reads on the computer while the phone keeps ringing; hence the rule "do not send where they are already reading".
  • Notifications switched off. Users turn off frequent and useless notifications entirely, and the important ones get lost too.

When you do not need it

If you have no app of your own and your customers are on Telegram, separate pushes are unnecessary: a bot message arrives as a notification by itself.
