iOS: Mac-specific notifications #1867

Open Dejal opened 5 months ago

Dejal commented 5 months ago

For the feed notifications, would it be feasible to add a Mac notification type? The iOS/Mac app passes an array of notification_types to the /notifications/feed/ endpoint, including email, web, ios and android, so it could add mac.

That'd need server-side support. Presumably the server uses the /notifications/apns_token/ endpoint to register the device for iOS notifications, so would probably need to add an optional parameter to distinguish iOS from Mac (and assume iOS if the parameter is missing).

I've had to turn off some notifications, as it is too chatty on my Mac, where it doesn't bother me on my iPhone. I imagine that'll be common feedback.
