Tips

• Select Same content for both platforms to synchronise changes between iOS and Android templates.

• There is no character limit for push notifications. However, ensure the content is added appropriately and displays correctly.

• Make sure that all tags contain data. Inconsistency in the tags will result in a validation error.
