Encourage users to engage directly with your app from a notification by adding relevant actions as buttons, like Learn More, Shop Now, and View.

Use one of the UI-available buttons in the Sailthru Mobile UI or add your own custom button. Custom buttons expand your options - leverage a fully custom button that's already built into your app. Note: You must be on the latest version of the SDK to add buttons to push notifications. The versions are:

• iOS: 12.0.0+
• Android: 15.0.0+
• React Native: 7.0.0+
