Introduction of push notification update for latest news on cryptonews
Components
The Cryptonews is built on the open source android platform to aid crypto enthusiasts stay updated with latest news from their favorite news sites.
Proposal
The application is structured in such a way that you can scroll through the news like you would do on your social media timeline. It gives you the ability to read any of these news, right there on the app without having to open another browser application, however currently once you minimize the application you no longer get any updates until the app is re-launched. I suggest push notification is introduced on this application so that users can keep being updated with relevant news as they come.
Mockups / Examples
This an example of how the push notification for latest news should look like.
Current state ; New news are coming in and there's no pop up notifications to prompt user
When push notification is introduced; see pop up at top of screen
When notification comes in and user slides to see the notifications bar
Benefits
The benefits of adding this feature;
It ensures Users stay updated with realtime news even when outside the application interface.
It also provides an improved user experience as application will becomes more useful.
