saad_cb Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I am currently developing a VR application for the HTC VIVE headset platform. As part of enhancing user engagement and providing timely updates within the application, I am interested in integrating push notifications. Given the unique environment of VR and the HTC VIVE platform, I am seeking guidance on how to effectively implement push notifications into my VR application. Could anyone please provide insights, documentation, or resources that can assist me in achieving this goal? I understand that managing notifications within VR environments presents its own set of challenges, and I would greatly appreciate any advice or best practices you can offer on this matter. If there are specific APIs, SDKs, or recommended approaches for handling push notifications on the HTC VIVE platform, I would be eager to learn more about them.

VIVE_chengnay Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Hi @saad_cb, Could you explain in more detail about what is your need? Push notification of what type of event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saad_cb Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 I want to send push notifications related to user interest and engagement to my VR app developed in Unity. @VIVE_chengnay These notifications should be received by the app even when it is in a KILLED or TERMINATED state.

VIVE_chengnay Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Hi @saad_cb, Where are those notifications coming from? Your another app on the same headset? Or from your other device? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VIVE_chengnay Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Hi @saad_cb, Do you have little knowledge about Android or Java programming? There is broadcast receiver that can receive intent sending from outside(other application). Not sure if this can resolve your issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saad_cb Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 Let me add some details here, as it will help you understand my issue and assist me in a better way. I am aware of external push notification services such as FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging), APNS (Apple Push Notification Services), and AWS SNS for implementing push notifications in apps. However, I prefer not to use any of these services. Specifically, I am developing an app for HTC VIVE headsets and would like to know if HTC VIVE provides a dedicated SDK or any specific tools for implementing push notifications within such an app. Could you provide guidance or resources related to this?

VIVE_chengnay Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Hi @saad_cb, We did not provide any dedicated SDK or tools for implementing push notifications as not all developers need this service. You can choose any service you found that suits your need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
