- Automatically acknowledges device offline mode, queues calls, and retries sending registrations and analytics after reestablishing a connection

- Resourcefully bundles registrations and handles throttling logic to avoid DDOS situations
- Built-in hashing logic to retry registrations in case Apple or Google change or update the device token
- Intelligent, patented monitoring of operating system-level geofence availability and battery consumption
- Automated logic and background controls to handle standard push notifications, silent push notifications, inbox refreshes, and patented behavioral in-app message engagement
