Editor's Notes

  • #2 Is there any news around Location service improvements? See doc for mention of Location as a priority innovation we need to deliver: https://urbanairship.jiveon.com/docs/DOC-9812 According to the What's new in iOS Notifications video: Banner Pull down to show actions Up to 2 actions Lock Screen/Notification Center Swipe to show actions Up to 2 actions Modal dialog Hit options on the modal dialog to show actions Up to 4 actions One of the things we learned is that interactive push categories have to be included in the app that goes through the app store.   We should consider including a set of standard button/categories in the SDK that work cross platform and would work out of the box.   Such as like: Like, Dislike - set a custom event and/or a tag with the push ID of the message sent? More, Less - set a custom event and/or a tag with the push ID of the message sent? Dismiss, Follow - set a custom event and/or a tag with the push ID of the message sent? Dismiss, Reply - Open the app and bring up a screen that can collect a comment. Send collected comments from users to UA. Display them in UI. Allow export to CSV of comments Dismiss, Share - Could we just bring up whatever the app has configured for sharing? More - Bring up Landing page with more options for Actions to run OR maybe we can display More options as a UA Modal Action?   I think we could get started with a handful of these. What are some other ideas?   We'd want to localize these as well. Perhaps the device would sort that out? To start, maybe we just tell developers how to modify it if they need multi-lingual support.   From the requirements ^^, "Configuration screen to register and manage Interactive Notification Types (aka categories on iOS8)." Maybe we'd include a handful of these OOTB button/categories on that settings screen in our UI pre-configured. And then, the customer could add any custom ones (they'd have to work with their developer to get the new ones registered).   Other random thoughts: Maybe we'd make it so after the initial button/category you could optionally execute any number of UA Actions? Maybe have some way on the push detail report to see counts of what users tapped on which button? Maybe a way to export device consumer identifiers/aliases/tokens?  
  • #5  The key innovations that Apple is shipping with iOS 8 are: > Interactive Notifications & Notification Center Widgets To support these new innovations, Apple is making improvement to APNs To enable our customers to best capitalize on these, UA will be shipping a significant release. Some of you may be aware that Android has been supporting Interactive Notifications since 2012. Now with Apple’s support, mainstream adoption will happen.
  • #6 Widgets give your brand the opportunity to earn a place in the most prized real estate on the phone. Lets your users interact with your brand without having to open up the app. This is much faster than opening an app, giving the user almost instant access to the most important information and functionality you have to offer. Like interactive notifications, provides an opportunity not just to display info, but enable interactivity, 2-way communication
  • #7 As we all know, Push notifications provide huge value by driving users to engage with your mobile apps. With the addition of Interactive Notifications, you can now enhance this value by adding more interactivity into a push notification. Why does this matter? Now you can add buttons to a push allowing users to make choices. For example, a news app can now allow users to “Open” or “Share” a news headline whereas before users could only swipe on the Push to get into new story. Although, some of these capabilities have been available in Android for sometime, Apple’s addition of interactive notifications and their ability to move the entire market to their new operating system, will ensure that push interactivity become the norm.
  • #8 Another example is the ability to share socially by leveraging UA's action framework, which provides an enhanced opportunity to acquire users and reach a wider audience.
  • #9 Another example is the ability to share socially by leveraging UA's action framework, which provides an enhanced opportunity to acquire users and reach a wider audience.
  • #10 The next significant change to iOS 8 is the enhanced Notification Center and specifically the Today Screen. This was previously a Power User feature, but by allowing users to select widgets for a customized at-a-glance view of content, it will become a goto screen. Brands will complete to gain more screen time through this valuable real-estate.   Urban Airship will be extending the value of our Message Center as a Widget. Message Center, as you may know, provides brands with the ability to reach their entire app audience, beyond those who opt-in to push. You can now publish content in your app to drive engagement and extend that value through a Widget w/o having to build your own solution.
  • #11 In this example, a retailer’s Message Center Widget is providing a user with tracking status. A user can directly check the status of their order status directly from the message.
  • #12 In this example, a retailer’s Message Center Widget is providing a user with tracking status. A user can directly check the status of their order status directly from the message.
  • #13 Apple is upgrading its push system to modernize and better support the new features. > Reach global audience > Support richer interactivity > Push is not just an home screen alert, it is used to update content within and app (data communication channel) Frame of ref what AMZN 6k and Android 4k provides for context
  • #16 For the fall, Urban Airship is extending the value of Interactive Notifications and Mobile Messaging.
