Controversies

  • Airpush provides Notification ads that sit in the notification bar of smart phone. The problem with these ads is that there is no way one can find out which app is pushing this ad. Since it doesn't say about the location it is not sure whether Air-Push is violating android terms. As a response, Airpush has introduced options which require end-users to opt-in to its services.
