Message Inbox for mobile and web

Reach users who never turned push on

Message Inbox adds an in-app notification center to your app and website, where important updates stay available. Choose a notification, or silent delivery that reaches everyone, including users who declined push.

A mailbox built into your app and website

Flag any message to persist and it lands in a message center users can reopen on their own time, on mobile or on the web.

  • Messages stay readable after the notification is gone.
  • Read and unread state, with an unread count.
  • Rich media and a custom icon per message.
  • Tap actions — reopen the original action, an in-app banner, or a rich page.
  • Ready-made inbox UI, or a fully custom one you build.

Silent delivery, no push permission needed

An inbox message arrives silently and surfaces the next time the user opens your app. Pushwoosh can keep the device token even when someone opts out, so the message still reaches them.

  • Silent delivery, with no alert and no app-icon badge.
  • Content appears on the user’s next app open.
  • Recover reach on audiences where push opt-in runs low, like games and media.

Let users keep what matters most

The inbox carries both the transactional messages people need to re-find and the offers they want to act on later.

Order & booking confirmations

Confirmations, shipping updates, and statements.

Payment & transfer alerts

Charges, transfers, and payment reminders.

Security & account notices

Login alerts and account changes, kept after the alert clears.

Coupons & sale reminders

Codes and offers with a shelf life.

Product updates

A what's new feed users can scroll back through.

In-game mailbox

Rewards, gifts, and event reminders.

Save to inbox from a journey or a one-time push

Toggle Save to inbox on a push step in a customer journey, or on a one-time push, and the message you already send is kept too. No separate campaign to build.

  • Set how long each message stays before it clears out.
  • Adjust how the saved message displays in the inbox.
  • Same journey as push, in-app, email, SMS, and WhatsApp, against one profile.

See which saved messages people open, and how much reach you recover from users who never get a notification.

  • Mobile inbox statistics inside the customer journey, next to the push step.
  • Detailed inbox interaction data through the Pushwoosh API.

Stored on your own EU hardware

Inbox messages persist on the device and on Pushwoosh’s own hardware in Germany, under GDPR and BDSG, with no US cloud provider involved. The inbox stores content server-side, including transactional data, and it stays there.

How it works

  1. Configure your platforms and embed the SDK

    Set up iOS, Android, or web in the Control Panel, add the Pushwoosh SDK, and start subscribing users.

  2. Add the inbox UI

    Your developers use the native iOS and Android libraries, the cross-platform presentInboxUI, or the Web Push SDK. Take the ready-made screen, or build a custom one.

  3. Turn on Save to inbox

    Switch it on in a journey or a one-time push, or set the inbox fields via the createMessage API.

No add-on to buy. Message Inbox is part of the Pushwoosh feature set, and the whole platform is available on the free plan.
