Push Notification Opt-In
The percentage of users who allow an app to send push notifications. It affects how effectively a product can drive re-engagement and lifecycle messaging.
How Push Notification Opt-In works in practice
Push notification opt-in shapes how much re-engagement control an app has after the first session. A high opt-in rate gives the product more opportunities to bring users back through reminders, alerts, and timely nudges. But pushing too early or without clear value can hurt acceptance and even retention. The best onboarding flows delay the permission request until the benefit is obvious, making the opt-in feel helpful rather than intrusive.
