Forced by the ecological environment of domestic application software, Android mobile phones have been dancing and fighting in the form of message pushes for a long time, which has also caused users to suffer.
In this context, in 2017, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology led the establishment of a unified push alliance, hoping to regulate the domestic application software ecology. But now that nearly 5 years have passed, the progress of the unified push alliance is indeed very slow.
Recently, there has been new news from the Unified Push Alliance, officially renamed as the "Unified Push Working Committee", and further promoted the unified push standards for Android mobile phones.
Our phones receive many various push message notifications every day, but Android phones and Apple phones have a different mechanism for pushing messages.
Message pushes for Apple phones are done by the Apple Push Notification service. Specifically, if the app wants to push message notifications for users, it needs to send these contents to the server that Apple is responsible for pushing, and then have this server deliver to the iPhone. In this way, the APP in the user's mobile phone does not need to be in a running state, and can also receive a message notification sent by the APP.
In contrast, domestic Android mobile phones do not have such specifications in terms of push message notifications, or use a simple and rude peer-to-peer push mode, that is, the APP resident background directly pushes messages to users. In this way, the biggest problem is that a large number of applications are running in the background of the mobile phone in the form of self-starting, interrelated, etc. Yes, the mobile phone has a negative impact such as stuttering and increased power consumption.
Therefore, in such a general environment, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has led the establishment of a unified push alliance, including Huawei, Xiaomi, OV, Baidu, Tencent, Ali and other companies are involved.
However, after several years, this unified push alliance has not made much progress, and it seems that it has been slowly forgotten by everyone. In the past few days, the news that the "Unified Push Alliance" has been fully upgraded to a "Unified Push Working Committee" has reminded people of it.
Judging from the current progress, the unified push alliance still has a long way to go, and there is still a long way to go. Hopefully, this name change will not just be a name change, but will bring about real progress. Only on the day when the unified push alliance is fully launched, the background push of domestic Android mobile phones can truly rival Apple's iOS system. However, in order to achieve this effect, there are still many things to do in the unified push alliance, and it needs the support of major domestic mobile phone manufacturers and application developers.
