The deadline for all 2024 push notifications is May 8.
Mobile App Alerts / Push Notifications
Alerts are a great way to keep attendees informed in real time. If users opted in to receive push notifications, alerts appear on the device Home Screen as a notification. Therefore, alerts should be kept very short and additional details can be linked from the alert.
Keep your TITLE (max 30 characters) and MESSAGE as short as possible (max 40 characters).
Correct message length
max 40 characters or 5-7 words to fully display on all device screens
Too much text is cut off in the notification
max 40 characters or 5-7 words to fully display on all device screens
If you need to provide more details or formatted content such as bulleted lists, we can create a custom view that contains all the formatted content and link from the alert to the custom mobile page (for an additional fee). You may also link to your own hosted website.

Please give CMSC a week to review your submission. We will email you whether your alert has been accepted or if you need to make changes to it. For questions, please email Marguerite at [email protected].
