Legacy Push Notification - Device Registrations

When a recipient downloads and installs your mobile app, Cheetah Digital will receive and record the device's attributes. These attributes include app installation time, the mobile device's ID (the distinct combination of a recipient’s app and device), the device token, the name and platform (iOS | android) of the app, the device status and message status.

The Device Registrations tab displays all the above attributes along with the following statuses:

Device Status - indicates if the device registration status is Valid (successful) or Invalid (not currently registered)

Message Status - indicates if the audience member has elected to receive push and in-App Messages. It can be one of the following:

• Unknown -The user has not yet confirmed their permissions.

• Quiet - The user can receive push notifications in quiet mode - i.e. the application will not actively alert the user.

• Active - The user has allowed push notifications.

• Disabled - The user has blocked push notifications.

In order to send a message, the Device status must be Valid and Message status must be Active or Quiet.

Whenever the recipient signs in to your mobile app, the device and message status are sent and updated in Cheetah Digital.
