And that would be a problem if having 'is typing...' and 'was read' notifications had to be pushed realtime to an app that was in the background. What is the point of those notifications arriving in the app when the user isn't using it.
- freeone3000 7y agoThe sender of these notifications doesn't know that the user has closed the app. What this means is that the message send from the sender through the server now has to include whether this is a message or a non-message, which has to be a flag in plaintext.
