Enable deep linking to new "Follow" push notification

[zavreb]

Issue: Presently, users aren't aware when another user follows them. To increase traffic to the app, we'd like to notify the user every time another user follows them via push notification (provided they have it enabled)

REQs:

• Must match mock, see here zeplin: zpl.io/2p0NgxE
• Fired when another user follows the owner
• When user taps, it deep links to User Profile (if it's not too hard to deep link into Followers screen see below req.)

Nice-to-have:

• Deep links to Followers screen for owner

New Follow Push Notification

Deep links to one of these screens (right is preferred)

LGTM

@bengtan to create wocky related ticket to create new push notification

[bengtan]

Before I write the server side ticket, I need to know:

• What is the format of the deeplink? This depends on which screen we are linking to (ie. 'right is preferred').

---

Also, in a more general sense, weren't we going to review push notifications (and app badge) and possibly overhaul them?

[zavreb]

Per call: Deep linking pushes new screen over current one. If user is on Followers screen, and taps on push notification, it'll stack a duplicate, if you tap "back" it'll take you to previous Followers page.

I need a new follower to test this on Prod

Wilderness testing needed, can't reproduce it.

I have never received a "new follower" push notification before... has anyone else? Should we see these with auto follows?
