Re: How does Boxcar work?

2012-08-23 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, was a bit hesitant too because the $5 price tag is a bit steep. 
However I've been so much happier with Push 4.0 that in the end it's 
been worth it for me. The interesting thing is I have boxcar set for 
notifications for forusquare stuff and it's always worked fine for that. 
Go figure.

If you've got the oficial Twitter app installed and configured with your
Twitter account, it'll automatically notify you of menciones, dm, if
someone
favorites your twits among others.

Hi list,
I would like to know how Boxcar works and I would like to hear your
opinions about this app.
I have read somewhere that it drains a lot of battery.
I hope I won't sound as a silly person asking this but is it necessary
to have Carbox runing in background when I want to get the notifications?
Thank you in advance for your posts.
Maria

Hello!

 basically you create a boxcar account. Then you can enter additional accounts 
(twitter, email, facebook etc), to get notifications for them.
I ddin't notice any battery issues with it. I quit using it just because I 
switched to twitter app what supported notifications itself and facebook fixed 
its issues with notifications.
You don't need to have this app running backround to get notified.

Hi, I don't think Boxcar drains the battery more than any other push 
type of app. It basically sends out push notifications for things like 
Twitter mentions, direct messages, Facebook messages, updates, 
foursquare checkins, ETC. Anything you want to be notified about from 
popular services, Boxcar will tell you about.


I hope that helps.
