Double Opt-In for Push Notifications

We are pleased to introduce the Double Opt-In for Push Notifications feature, ensuring enhanced user engagement and compliance with notification permissions on Android and iOS platforms.

Key Features:

  • Customizable Flow: Users can configure the time intervals and triggers for opt-in prompts, creating a seamless user experience.
  • UI Alignment: Notification HTMLs are provided by users, ensuring the prompts match the app's design.
  • Platform Compatibility:
    • Android (13 and above): Allows two system notification permission prompts. After two denials, only a "Go to settings" prompt is shown.
    • iOS: Displays the system prompt once, with subsequent prompts redirecting users to settings for manual enablement.
  • Increased Flexibility: Supports re-prompting based on user actions and time intervals after initial denial.

This feature addresses the growing adoption of Android 13+ and iOS 16+, where explicit user permission is mandatory for notifications. It empowers clients to optimize opt-in strategies while adhering to platform guidelines.
