    • client notification usage
      • Push != (real) messaging
      • Send additional keys to the application (not just 'alert')
      • REACT on messages
        • download data
        • update the UI, if something new is present
    • Let users know that something new occurred!

    Apache Cordova Plugin

    
function onNotification(event) {

    if (event.payload.task === "NEW_LEAD") {

        var latitude  = event.payload.latitude;
        var longitude = event.payload.longitude;

        // draw something on a map:
        showCustomerLoc(latitude, longitude);
    }

    // more checks....
}
