Push Notifications are a hit and miss on iPhone

If you rely heavily on Push, you might have noticed that you missed a few push messages here and there. The reason is that Apple surprisingly didn’t really plan for a situation when more than one app pushes to your Phone. What has been noticed by many is the last push does show but the previous push message that came along with it is lost.
TechCrunch’s MG Siegler quoted:
“if you have a lot of push messages coming in, I’m finding that you either have to pull out your phone every couple minutes, or risk still missing notifications that you probably want to see. Notification message indicators are not built for heavy use. If you have multiple push messages coming in to you phone, only the latest one will be shown on the screen. And even when you unlock your phone, it’s hard to tell which push messages have come in. Though you can set a badge on app icons to let you know there is a message, if it was overridden by another message, you are forced to open the app to figure out what it was.”
