Introducing Push Preview, designed to refine and perfect the art of push notification - an experience and interaction that matters.

Simulate Your App Icon: Try out various image colors to see how your app icon looks against different backgrounds. Preview with 2 or 4 Lines of Text: Choose between previewing what the notification looks like at the top of your screen and in the Notification Center. Send Endless Push Notifications: Practice makes perfect. Send as many test notifications as you need to nail your copy. Elevate your messaging, engage your audience meaningfully, and make every alert count. It's time your notifications became as thoughtful and considered as the rest of your app.
