Spring into action with the latest CometChat updates!
We have in store: A complete makeover to our notification module, a gentle nudge to keep up with the world of compliance, and something that we hope is a developer’s delight.
Revamped Push Notifications
Granular Control and Enhanced Delivery
We're thrilled to announce a significant overhaul of the CometChat Push Notifications module. This revamp empowers developers with finer-grained control over notification delivery and streamlines the user experience. What's New?
Multi-Provider Support
Developers can now create multiple entries for the same notification service providers (Firebase and APNS) within a single CometChat application. This simplifies managing notifications for various mobile apps served by the same CometChat backend.
Dynamic Delivery Conditions
Granular control over notification delivery is now at your fingertips. Define notification delivery rules based on conversation type or time of day directly within the CometChat dashboard. This ensures users receive the most relevant notifications at the most opportune times.
Customizable Templates
Enhance user experience with notification templates tailored to different message types. Craft clear and informative notifications that resonate with your users and are contextual to your product use case.
Head over to the Notifications tab in your CometChat dashboard to give this a spin!
Revamped Developer Documentation
Carving out the best developer experience
One of the big focuses of 2024 is to up our game on developer experience and get closer to an ideal state. A major milestone in this pursuit is our new documentation experience.
Dive into a meticulously organized information hierarchy for effortless navigation. Each component and feature doc is now complete with detailed explanations and illustrative screenshots, ensuring a clear understanding of even the most intricate functionalities. This streamlined approach is designed to accelerate your time-to-market with faster and more efficient integration.
Please note that the new documentation is currently in beta. We're actively seeking real-time feedback from our valued developer community to continuously refine and perfect this valuable resource.
