3. Create your app

Apps are the core of Pushed notifications, they are made by the community, alias Developers, Freelance, Companies, Organizations, etc… that means people like you. Apps acts as the containers of the notifications, as every notification belongs to an app.

Confusing? Let’s create your first app and you will quickly understand. To create your first app open the Apps section of the Developer Panel and click on Create your first app now. The following modal window will open:

You can always edit your apps name and description, so don’t head with the naming process.

You should now see the App Settings page, where you can edit all the details of your recently created app.

Be aware that you’re recently created app, and all apps by default, is private. That means that it won’t appear in Pushed Discover, the marketplace for Pushed apps, and nobody will be able to subscribe without the subscription link. This is ok for now, as we’re only doing some tests. Keep in mind this for production environments.

4. Subscribe to your recently created app

In order to receive push notifications on your mobile device, you have to subscribe to the recently created app using de QR subscription code. On your app Settings section, click on QR Subscription Code, the QR Subscription Code for your app will appear:

Open Pushed mobile app (you download it in the first step). Tap on the icon (located right at the top). The search view will open, now tap again on the  icon (located right at the top), device camera will turn on, now scan the QR code of your app.

You just subscribed to your new app. Now you are ready to send notifications.
