Who else is most excited about notification sync?

[kuczco]

I'm always rockin my iphone 5 but I will only use my iPad mini every other day. The part that drives me nuts the most is that I've gotta clear out all of the notifications that I've already seen from the past couple of days. Notification sync cannot come soon enough!

i'm with you, it was more than overdue. works well on the beta and makes the whole experience better. Having said that, I never got too worked up over it back in iOS6, guess I'm just an easy customer, haha.

If you think that is good if you have a Mac with Mavericks it is insanely better. The ability to answer the messages right from the Mac and then have it go away on the phone is like indescribable. I have always thought that was the stupidest thing I would answer on my Mac or iPad then I'd have the notifications still sitting there on the other devices. It is going to be so sweet the only thing that sucks is it only works with iMessage. I wish Apple could run text messages through their servers so that the Mac and iPad would have the full conversation and sync it all. Oh well maybe that is something they can work on for the future :laughing:

I remember Tweetbot actually had this feature a while back when they introduced iCloud sync into their app but something happened to make it stop working.

YES! I can't wait. I'm one of those people who just can't stand leaving app badges untouched - so it was always a pain to have to go through and re-check all the messages and emails that I'd already taken care of on my phone as well!

It will be a great improvement. Tired of clearing them out on all devices.

Good Luck

+1. This is one of the many things I like about iOS7.

+1111 Very much looking forward to it!

One of the best non advertised features of iOS 7 that I've seen!


When in doubt throttle it out

 

[theKHMERboy]

Yes it happens to me to with my iPhone and iPad mini.. This can be interesting

I'll be happy. My girlfriend is always complaining I have too many notifications I don't dismiss. In reality, I usually dismiss them on one device, then forget to on the other. The problem is, once you open the lock screen, there's no way to know you have notifications other than looking randomly so it would be nice if there was an icon on the status bar. Anyways, glad I can finally dismiss all my notifications ONCE.

Does this feature work with emails when using stock mail app? My biggest gripe is having my work email pushed to my phone that I have already answered via my Mac showing a "false" message count until I launch the app.

it seems we didn't get this at all

Ya I'm kinda mad about it too. My favourite feature is missing....

 

[cdpinker]

So far I've been able to get it working with the Mail and Messages apps. You have to read the new item within the app in order for the notification to sync. You can't just clear the notification from notification centre and have it sync.

What I want to know therefore is:

1) Can anyone get this feature to work on any other apps?
2) Do developers have to build in support for this or should it just work?
3) Is it right that this feature only works if you read the item within the app? Do notifications cleared within notification centre not sync at all, even for stock apps?

I specifically came on this forum looking to start or find something about this very topic.

I thought I was missing a setting or something wasn't working correctly on my devices because notification sync is not working at all for me with my iPad 4 & iPhone 4.

Any news/updates would be appreciated.

Notification sync worked for me in iOS 6 for mail and messages.

But I, too, find it doesn't work for other apps as we all expected it to in iOS 7.

Is this something developers need to enable? Or is it really missing?

Well now that iOS 7.0.3 and Mavericks are out, we still don't have this feature mentioned at the Apple June event.
Does anyone have any idea if this is ever gonna appear?

TIA

I'd like to know that too because it was one of the few things about iOS 7 that I was excited about
