transcript

PETR DVOŘÁKCEO at Lime

Push notifications. The big way.

Should be part of every app.

Are not part of every app.

Are simple when done simple.

Mostly, they are pretty hard.

Push notifications

Users who opt in to push messages averaged 3x more app launches than those who opted out.

— Localytics

65% of users returned to an app in the 30 days after the app’s initial download, if they have push enabled.

Privacy concerns

Intrusive ads

Bad UI/UX

Freezing

Complex sign-up

Implementation topics

APNs / GCM

Provider

1. Register device at APNs and provider.

2. Identify (or segment) users.

3. Send push notifications.

4. Analyze data.

5. Remove unused devices.

What needs to be done?

Device registration

Registration

Provider

1. Ask for APNs token.

Registration

Provider

2. Get APNs token

Registration

2. Get APNs token

3. Send APNs token to provider

User identifier

Push notification settings

User demographics

User location

… and much more :-)

Data sent to provider

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)app didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {

UIUserNotificationType types = UIUserNotificationTypeBadge | UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert;

UIUserNotificationSettings *set = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:types categories:nil];

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings:set]; [[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotifications]; }

AppDelegate.m

Register for remote notifications

AppDelegate.m

- (void)application:(UIApplication *)app didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData *)devToken { self.registered = YES; [self sendProviderDeviceToken:devToken]; // custom method } - (void)application:(UIApplication *)app didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:(NSError *)err { NSLog(@"Error in registration. Error: %@", err); }

AppDelegate.m

- (void)application:(UIApplication *)app didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData *)devToken { self.registered = YES; [self sendProviderDeviceToken:devToken]; // custom method } - (void)application:(UIApplication *)app didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:(NSError *)err { NSLog(@"Error in registration. Error: %@", err); }

AppDelegate.m

Sending notifications

Send push notifications

Provider

1. Decide to send push

Provider

2. Send payload and APNs token

Provider

2. Send payload and APNs token

3. Deliver the push message

Push notification payload

{ "aps" : { "alert" : { "title" : "Hello there!", "body" : "It has been a while." } } }

Maximum payload length is 4096 bytes.

Ehm… security?

$devices = new DeviceCollection(array( new Device('???????') ));

$message = new Message('Hello guys!');

$push = new Push($apnsAdapter, $devices, $message); $pushManager->add($push); $pushManager->push();

UILocalNotification *localNotif = launchOptions objectForKey:UIApplicationLaunchOptionsLocalNotificationKey]; NSDictionary *userInfo = localNotif.userInfo;

Handle push notifications

Feedback service

Provider

1. Request expired tokens

2. Expired token list

3. Delete tokens

$feedback = $pushManager->getFeedback($apnsAdapter); // $feedback contains collection of [device_token, timestamp] pairs

Clean up device tokens

Custom sound

Extras

Scaling big

User management - fast segmentation… by what?

Delivery time - 100k devices x 4096 … 1M devices?

Multiple apps - Reusing the push server

Hardware and infrastructure

Engineering - project grows big, multiple platforms

Handle notifications

LimeEngage *lime = [LimeEngage sharedInstance]; [lime handleRemoteNotificationInfo:userInfo];

LimeEngage *lime = [LimeEngage sharedInstance];

lime.currentUser.internalId = @"4378924"; lime.currentUser.name = @"Jan"; lime.currentUser.surname = @"Novak"; lime.currentUser.sex = @"male";

[lime synchronizeCurrentUser];

Update user info

LimeEngage *lime = [LimeEngage sharedInstance];

lime.currentUser.internalId = @"4378924"; lime.currentUser.name = @"Jan"; lime.currentUser.surname = @"Novak"; lime.currentUser.sex = @"male";

[lime synchronizeCurrentUser];
