Can push notifications work on web browsers?

Yes. Modern browsers support the Web Push API with service workers. We implement VAPID-based web push that works on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari (macOS Ventura+).

How do you prevent notification fatigue?

We implement per-user frequency caps, quiet hours, notification categories with individual opt-out, and smart batching that groups multiple events into digest notifications.

Can notifications trigger specific screens in the app?

Yes. Every notification includes deep link data that routes users to the relevant screen or content when tapped. We handle both cold-start and background navigation scenarios.

Re-Engage Users With Targeted Push Notifications

Reach users on any device with personalized, event-driven notifications. Bookuvai builds notification systems with smart delivery, A/B testing, and actionable analytics.

Feature: Push Notifications

Push notifications are the most direct channel to re-engage users outside your application. An effective system delivers the right message at the right time with user-level targeting and frequency controls. Bookuvai builds notification infrastructure that spans web, iOS, and Android with a unified API, ensuring consistent delivery across every platform.

Benefits

Cross-Platform Delivery: A single API to send notifications to web browsers, iOS, and Android devices with platform-specific formatting and deep linking.
Event-Driven Triggers: Automatically trigger notifications based on user actions, time-based schedules, or backend events like order status changes.
User Segmentation: Target notifications by user attributes, behavior patterns, location, device type, or custom segments defined in your application.
Delivery Analytics: Track delivery rates, open rates, click-through rates, and conversion attribution per notification campaign.

How It Works

Notification Strategy: Define notification types, triggers, channels, and frequency caps aligned with your user engagement goals.
Provider Setup: Configure FCM for Android/web, APNs for iOS, and web push with VAPID keys. Set up service worker registration for PWA support.
Backend Infrastructure: Build the notification service with event listeners, template rendering, user preference management, and delivery queuing.
Client Integration: Implement permission prompts, token registration, notification display, and deep link handling on all target platforms.
Testing & Optimization: Test delivery across devices, set up analytics dashboards, and implement A/B testing for notification content and timing.

Technology Options

Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM): Google's free notification service supporting Android, iOS, and web push with topics, conditions, and data messages. (Best for: Cross-platform apps that want reliable delivery with zero per-message cost)
OneSignal: Managed notification platform with segmentation, automated messaging, in-app messaging, and a visual campaign builder. (Best for: Marketing-driven teams wanting a no-code campaign builder alongside developer APIs)
Custom APNs + FCM: Direct integration with Apple Push Notification service and FCM for maximum control over delivery, payload, and priority. (Best for: Applications needing fine-grained control over notification routing and priority)

Estimated Hours

Simple: 8-15 hours | Moderate: 15-30 hours | Complex: 30-55 hours
