I have a membership website publishes an RSS feed. Each time a new article is posted, or a discussion forum thread is started an update to the rss feed is made. I am looking to turn these RSS feed updates into wap pushes to the app which members will have on their handsets to encourage them to revisit the membership site. Is there a recommended Wap Push plug in that works well with BT apps? If so I would love to hear about it. Thanks Nick Title Comments Hi Guys, I have created a few Apps in BT now but would like some recommendations on a solution for my next BT project. I have a membership website publishes an RSS feed.

Then you will want to have a server poll the RSS Feed for updates. When an update is detected, the Server should automatically send out a Push Notification with that new content as a headline. ----------- Another way is to have the app do background polling of the RSS feed for updates. Upon detection of updates, the app can display a "local notification" to the User. -- Niraj Comments You will want to take advantage of Push Notifications.
