When audio is playing on our mobile app, and the listener puts it into the background, Braze can successfully send the 1-minute events on Android, but not on iOS. Our app is in React Native. Help Please, if anyone has encountered a similar issue and how to resolve it. On iOS, the SDK seems to record all background events correctly, but does not send them to the Braze server until the app returns to the foreground — at which point all queued events are sent in one batch. If the app is closed before returning to the foreground, those background events are lost. This behaviour suggests that the Braze SDK disables data flushing while the app is in the background on iOS. I also noticed that whenever the app goes to the background on iOS, Braze logs a “session end” event, followed by all the accumulated background events when the app returns to the foreground — which further indicates that the SDK pauses data flushing during background execution. We have tried the following without success: Adding background-fetch and remote-notification to UIBackgroundModes in Info.plist. (I didn't think this could fix the issue but just tried it) Calling requestImmediateDataFlush() immediately after each logCustomEvent(). We use the "react-native-background-timer" package to send periodic pings (1 min to our backend API, and 10 min to Google Analytics using "@react-native-firebase/analytics"), and those continue to work reliably in the background — suggesting the limitation lies specifically within the Braze SDK rather than iOS itself.20Views0likes1CommentWhat’s the best approach for an NPS survey?
Hey everyone 👋 I’m planning to add an NPS survey to an email campaign and I’m curious — what’s worked best for you? Email with a link to a Braze landing page with the survey Or an embedded survey directly in the email? Both options will consume data points to collect information from each user, but which do you think has more advantages overall? Would love to hear your experiences! 🙌69Views1like3CommentsHow Do You Measure Success of Braze Content Cards on Website?
Hi all, I’m looking for insights on how to measure the success of a Notification Center on a website built with Braze Content Cards. We’ve implemented a bell icon that opens a feed of personalized cards (like an inbox), but we’re unsure how to define success or what benchmarks to expect. Specifically, I’d love to know: What CTR or open rates are considered “good” for the notification bell? What CTR do you see on individual content cards in the web? Do you track dismissals or post-click behavior (e.g., page views, conversions)? How do you set goals or measure ROI for website Content Cards vs. in-app or email? Any dashboards, examples, or learnings would be super helpful! Thanks in advance 🙌50Views0likes1CommentDecision Based on Email Opens - Canvas
Hi, this may be too basic, but I've tried and failed. I'm creating a journey in Canvas while they deliver my assets, and in one part of our strategy, they ask me to perform an action based on whether or not the user opens an email (sent in previous steps in the same canvas). I tried to do this with the decision split, but it only lets me do it by segment. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for your help!Solved87Views1like1CommentHow To Use Braze Landing Pages
This post has 2 main purposes: 1. First, check out our latest YT video on Braze Landing Pages! Once upon a time, Landing Pages were not an option within Braze. Customers would ask about Landing Page capabilities ("SFMC let us build Landing Pages"), and we would unfortunately have no way of accomplishing this in Braze. Fast forward a few years, and Braze keeps expanding their channels and capabilities! Landing Pages is very interesting since it's a slightly different channel compared to the classic messaging channels, yet still easily built with Braze's D&D editor. 2. Our landing page is live! At: braze.fornowmarketing.com/labrazemeetup Thanks to the power of Braze, we can officially start gathering interest and look for some potential date, time, and restaurant! Braze LA, please check out the video and visit the landing page above!221Views3likes5CommentsDelay in Canvas
Hello :) I'm new to Braze and I am working on an action-base canvas including a delay. The idea is to send the campaign the day after an action is performed and at a set time. For example: a customer make a purchase on Monday (doesn't matter the time), I want him/her to enter the canvas and receive my messages on Tuesday 11am. Is this possible and if so, how to set this up please? Many thanks in advance for your help!Solved108Views0likes2CommentsSo I woke up today and my jaw dropped...
Braze, I love the new design, love the colors. Even though you made a ton of changes, everything feels just right. I still haven't dived into every corner, but so far I have to say that: Quick Links are awesome, The new "New" tag stands out more and caught my attention, And somehow it feels like I've gotten a ton of extra space. This is just an appreciation post for all the teams that worked on this huge update!!!78Views7likes1CommentUsers marketing consent
Hi everyone, We're looking for ways to increase the number of contactable users. Some key actions we're considering include: A/B testing in the onboarding phase Ad hoc campaigns with in-app notifications for unsubscribed users Creating subscription groups (as we currently don't have any) Has anyone come across a successful case study on this? Or perhaps key metrics, like average user consent rates by industry, or useful websites for inspiration? We're struggling a bit with translating theory into practice, so any insights would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance! Matteo189Views1like7CommentsBenchmark of Re-consent Rates
Hi everyone, I am currently planning a re-consent campaign and have segmented our audience into 4 groups; highly engaged, moderate, lapsed and dormant. I am trying to get a sense of the reconsent rates for each segment to better predict business impact. If you have recently run a similar campaign - especially in the ticketing, live event, luxury goods or marketplace industries - could you share any insights or approximate success rates? Any benchmarks or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance :)42Views0likes0Comments
