Handle Notification Encryption in Salesforce Mobile SDK Apps

Mobile notifications travel from Salesforce, through third-party messaging services to mobile carriers, then on to mobile devices. Such an indirect path only increases the opportunities for malicious attacks. To guard against snooping or hacking, Salesforce encrypts Notification Builder notifications. Your app is responsible for decrypting these notifications.
Build Your Own In-App Notification Feature

If you use the Salesforce mobile app, you’re familiar with the Salesforce Bell. The Bell provides an in-app notification tray that lists the current user’s most recent notifications. With Salesforce Notification APIs, you can design and build your own tray.
