- wruza 5y agoWell, exact terminology aside one may see web/app push as a webhook, it's the same principle of delivering messages, but with a different addressing scheme. But I disagree with the Android part. Androids are the ones who spam my servers with websockets and other things when I restart them, because a user didn't bother to close a page in their browser. Never seen any iOS device doing that.
