Sending timely targeted email notifications greatly affects how your audience engages with your product. For these notifications to be effective at notifying your users of key events, you need to schedule when they are sent so that they are delivered at the right time.
While marketing-related notifications are often handled by marketing automation platforms, engineering teams require notification infrastructure that is designed for automated product-driven notifications. This might be a simple SMS password reset notification or new user onboarding email sequence. Or it may be a more complex notification tied to a feature of the application, such as an approval request sequence.
I absolutely ADORE a good todo app. Todo apps can be invaluable for improving productivity by helping you stay organized and manage tasks effectively. They are the ultimate solution for decluttering the mind and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.
You’ve got to stop sending password reset emails. Everyone does it and it’s not cool anymore. Many of your users don’t want to log into their email or open the mail app just to get access to a code that they have to manually copy and paste into your app — it’s a waste of time. Most phones support autofilling codes sent via SMS, which might make SMS the preferred channel for these users. However, you also can’t assume that this is how everyone will behave.

Product notifications keep users engaged and informed about important updates related to web and mobile applications. However, building an effective notification system for your app that sends timely and personalized messages can be challenging. Courier's development platform for notifications simplifies this process by consolidating various communication APIs, data, and development tools in one place.
Resetting passwords is a critical way to make your app accessible to users, but setting up email notifications for password resets from scratch can be tedious and error-prone. While Laravel does support password reset email templates, Laravel emails can be unreliable and prone to being caught in spam filters, and the default email templates are not particularly customizable. It might also be desirable to set up a backup channel like SMS or a backup email provider in case the primary fails.
