- # Control how push messages are sent to google/apple to notifications.
- # Normally every message said in a room with one or more people using
- # mobile devices will be posted to a push server hosted by matrix.org
- # which is registered with google and apple in order to allow push
- # notifications to be sent to these mobile devices.
- #
- # Setting redact_content to true will make the push messages contain no
- # message content which will provide increased privacy. This is a
- # temporary solution pending improvements to Android and iPhone apps
- # to get content from the app rather than the notification.
- #
+ # Clients requesting push notifications can either have the body of
+ # the message sent in the notification poke along with other details
+ # like the sender, or just the event ID and room ID (`event_id_only`).
+ # If clients choose the former, this option controls whether the
+ # notification request includes the content of the event (other details
+ # like the sender are still included). For `event_id_only` push, it
+ # has no effect.
+
# For modern android devices the notification content will still appear
# because it is loaded by the app. iPhone, however will send a
# notification saying only that a message arrived and who it came from.
