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. On Fri, Oct 17, 2014 at 5:42 PM, Terry Judd terry.j...@unimelb.edu.au wrote: OK, it seems like you do get the payload when opening the

OK, it seems like you do get the payload when opening the app from the notification centre on iOS8 but not iOS6. I’m not sure about iOS7 because I haven’t got another device that I can test it on. Does anyone know? Terry... On 17/10/2014 12:31 pm, Terry Judd terry.j...@unimelb.edu.au wrote:

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

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... Sent from my iPhone On 17/10/2014, at 1:12 PM, Mike Kerner mikeker...@roadrunner.com wrote: Try it. That's my observation. So, what I do, instead, is instead of
