Re: handling push notifications
Correct, if you open the app from the notification center in 7 or 8 you get the payload. However, if you just open the app from the springboard, you do not.

handling push notifications
Just starting with push notifications and have managed to get a simple example working using the livecode example code and AWS’s SNS service. So far so good! Now, in the livecode example it an ‘alert’ and a ‘payload’ are sent. The payload is received if the app is open and the alert is displayed if it isn’t. How do you capture the payload if the app isn’t open – for example if you wanted to display it when the user taps the notification alert?

Re: handling push notifications
Try it. That's my observation. So, what I do, instead, is instead of sending the payload (which has to be short, anyhow), is have the app recognize that it's gotten a push notification, then hit my server to find out why. The message you send is for the user, anyway. The payload has to be small, unfortunately, so either you have to send many messages to get the entire payload (and Apple specifically states that they do not guarantee delivery or the order of delivery), or you have to hit your server, anyway.

Thanks Mike - makes sense for the app to check in with the server when it starts up so I guess I'll go down that route. Terry...
