I’ve been going from app to app, some clients have a push notification setting but I’m still not getting anything when I’m outside of the app. What’s causing this? And are there apps where push notifications are working currently?

I know Thunder on Android has push notifications because it checks once every 15 minutes for anything new. But I do not know about iOS.

Checking at a regular interval is "pull" (not push) though. Push means the client keeps a low-bandwidth connection to the server open so the server can notify the client as soon as something has happened.

Point taken, LOL. But at least you get notifications. At least on Android. As I said, I have no idea whether it works on iOS or not.

Yep. I'm not sure if OP was looking for technically-pull clients specifically, though I have to imagine conventional notifications are a basic feature even on iOS.

Ahh, thank you.
