Managing Notifications
Android and iOS
The Notification History screen displays all push notifications and local notifications you have received during the last 30 days.
The Go app icon on your device displays a notification indicator with counter 1 when a new notification is received. For the Google Pixel and other stock Android phones, a purple indicator is displayed on the Go app icon without any counter. The notification indicator disappears when you open the app. The notification indicator is displayed only for the remote notifications, not for the local device notifications.
 |
On iOS devices, the badge icon disappears when you clear all notifications manually by swiping or tapping them from your device notification tray only, not from the Go app notification center.
|
For more details, refer to Notification Badge Behavior.

ServiceMax Go for Windows uses the Windows Notification Services (WNS) to send Push notifications to the app. For this reason, the app registers to the WNS periodically. Additionally, ServiceMax Go for Windows automatically downloads files required to generate Output Documents when the user is offline. Your device must allow the following domains through port 443 for the Push notifications:
• *.notify.windows.com
• *.wns.windows.com
• *.notify.live.net
• login.microsoftonline.com
• login.live.com
• *.servicemax.io
• *.servicemax-api.com
• *.salesforce.com
