native notifications when the app (GUI) is not running on both iOS and Android? (service that pulls notifications from a server)
-
Hi,
I've the requirement for a mobile app to be able to have native notifications on the phone (iOS or Android) even if the app (GUI part) is not actually running (not launched or killed by the user)
For example, WhatsApp or other social media apps can raise notification on phones even if the app is apparently not running.
I've seen there is possibility to implement Services on Android and I guess that would kind of do the job but can I be sure that if the user kill all the app (or never launched it) then the service will (still) run?
I don't know iOS but my associate showed me that you give the privilege to apps for receiving notifications, I guess that's kind of allowing a service at bootup but I've no clue.
Anyway is this possible to achieve with a Qt App? natively in Qt?
can we otherwise achieve it with a bit of native code embedded in the Qt project?
Any experience/examples for this?

Hi,
You would need some native coding.
Maybe @ekkescorner has some example published on that topic.
The folks from Felgo provide a plugin for that with their SDK.
