Messages to users: Overview


The app enables users to compose a manual message through a message composer user interface and define the audience to whom the message/push notification will be sent. There are two kinds of messages that can be sent through the application:

  • Text message: this is an sms sent to the user's registered mobile phone.

  • Mobile application push: SMS notifications with links to install the mobile application can be sent
