Hey there,
We are really really interested in having our users to be able to get mobile notification whenever ES have a notification for them.
Currently, if somebody sent you a message, you don't get it unless you are logging in (yes, you get an email, but it is not the same).

Do you have any solution for that? I saw that there is a company that offer a 3rd party mobile app, but I wrote them and then never got back to me.

Any idea will be great!
We have a push notification app that does web push notifications from OneSignal, https://stackideas.com/apps/item/3355-web-push-notifications

Onesignal supports most web browsers on desktops and Android. It does not support Safari browser's yet. You can see the table of supported devices at https://documentation.onesignal.com/docs/web-push-overview

Hey,
Webnotification are great, but I'm looking for a solution for Mobile (android and iOS)
Also, OneSignal use and sell the data of their clients, and we can't use such a service.
Do you have any other suggestions?

The web notifications relies on OneSignal and it supports Android devices. Currently there are no services that would work with Safari as Safari does not permit web pushes.

OK, we are thinking to do a "web view" app for ios that will just allow us to do mobile notification, and view ES just as a web page.
What do you think about that? Do you know if anyone did it before? \

I believe web view app does work from what I have read on https://www.joomgap.com/slim-app-for-easysocial.html but please do check with the developer of the app just to be sure.
