Download Data Automatically After Push Notification
Posted: Mon Mar 16, 2026 4:20 am
Hello everyone,
I’m new to the community and currently working on a mobile app for both iOS and Android. My app retrieves and displays data from a database. Whenever a new record (for example, a new order) is added to the database, I send a push notification to the user’s device with a message like: “Hello, you have a new order.”
After receiving the notification, the user usually opens the app to download and view the new data.
I’m wondering if it is possible to include some of the database information directly in the push notification so that it can be delivered to the client device as content. In addition, I would like to know whether the app can automatically start downloading the new data from the database when the push notification is received, instead of waiting for the user to open the app.
Has anyone implemented something similar or can suggest the best approach to handle this?
Thank you very much for your help!
