# Mobile Push

Mobile Push is for delivering instant, personalized messages on mobile devices. Use it to engage users with announcements, highlight promotions, send transactional alerts, and trigger behavior-based nudges that drive retention, conversions, and in-app activity. Campaigns can be targeted, timed, and measured with rich notification formats including text, image/video, carousel/slider, and product recommendations.

### Quickstart: send a push campaign

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### 1) Pick the goal and format

Text for speed. Media for engagement. Carousel/slider for multiple items.

Use Android-only formats only when the audience is Android-heavy.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### 2) Build the campaign

Follow the guided flow: Setup → What → Who → When → GO.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### 3) Add targeting and guardrails

Use segments/tags.

Use message limits and expiry to avoid spam and stale pushes.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### 4) Test and send

Send a test to your device.

Then launch to your target audience.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### 5) Measure results

Use campaign reports for delivery/open/conversion.

Use Event Insight for behavioral follow-through.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Notification formats

<figure><img src="/files/RfiandKbbvpNQ8Uji471" alt=""><figcaption><p>Types of Push Notifications</p></figcaption></figure>

#### Picking a format (fast rule of thumb)

* If the push must be read in 2 seconds → **Text**
* If the push must sell visually → **Image/Video**
* If you need choice inside the push → **Carousel/Slider**
* If you’re sending product recs to Android users → **Product Discovery**
