The SoCast mobile app uses two main methods to display content: Activity Streams and the In-App Browser. The In-App Browser is typically used for navigation items such as Pages, Links, or Promotions.
If your Home Navigation item is set to use the In-App Browser (for example, if it is set to the "Red Solo Cup" page), any URL included in a push notification will automatically open in an external web browser. This happens because the In-App Browser is reserved for the navigation item you have configured as your home page.
For this reason, we recommend setting your Home Navigation item to an Activity Stream. Doing so maximizes the functionality of push notifications and ensures a smoother user experience for your listeners.
