I’d like to get support for the so-called “silent” type of Push Notifications. This would allow me to be able to send a notification to my app to automatically download new content so it was immediately available the next time the user opened the app.
Specifically I think you need to add the ability to modify the payload to be like:
aps {
content-available: 1
alert: {...}
}
