selective push notifictions possible ?

hi,

I make business apps with corona, which is great ! One of my clients asked me if I could do selective push notifications. I mean send a notification to specific users, but not to all. Is this possible (for ios? android ? both ?) and is there a way of doing that with Corona?

Thanks and sorry for my english

Hi Bertko,

I have not done it myself, but I know it is possible. Some push notification service providers allow you to assign users to groups/channels and you can then send notifications to that specific group. You just have to investigate and find the one that suits you.

Thank you Gooner. i will try to find that^^

Your biggest hurdle will be finding a service for both platforms. I would recommend looking at netmera, I have used this in my own app to to send and receive push notifications for iOS and Android devices

Thanks again^^ looks great, but i didn’t see a corona sdk. How did you make it ?

Fabulous ! Thank you !
