Question about programming.

[Alejandro Kmet]

Good day to this great community!

I want to ask you something and see if you can guide me.I'm learning android programming and i'm using android studio.I made an app for a digital magazine that was not very difficult to do,but what i want to do now is to make that the same application notifies the user when there is a promo available.What i want to do is that if the owner of the enterprise i made the app for designs his own banner on jpg with some promo codes for the people that owns the app and when he upload that jpg on some fpt or something like that a notification arrives to the people's phone and so they can see or download the jpg.i know how to make normal notifications but i dont know very well how to do this in particular.i suppose that with a script can be done but i dont know how.i dont want anyone to make code for me,just a little guidance to experiment by myself.thanks!!

Use network to check the online site for new content, if so, download.

To start with make this happen whilst the user is using the app, then look at writing it as a background service


You say script... Are you doing all this in a WebView or something?

thanks for you reply.
yes! the app is a webview of a mobile version of the enterprise page.

Well, your solution could use javascripts ajax for network then. I used to dump JQuery into those types of apps.

Technically all that is web development, so maybe use a webserver and php for the server backend?
