Standard device attributes

Blueshift also has the following standard device attributes that you can use to track different mobile devices used by a customer. With these attributes you can track user and device level push and in-app message subscription status for each mobile device a customer owns.

Blueshift also derives some device attributes.

Device IDs

  • A unique device_id is assigned to the device each time a customer installs your app on a device.
  • If the customer installs the app on more than one device, multiple device_ids will be seen on the customer profile.
  • If the customer uninstalls and installs the app more than once on the same device, multiple device_ids will be seen on the customer profile.
  • You can see the app installation status for each device_id seen on the customer profile. You can keep the app installation status up to date by running a campaign to Track app uninstalls.
  • You can add a feature/code to your app to reset the device_id based on your use case. In such cases, when the device_id is reset, a new device_id is created and this is seen as a new device on the customer profile.
  • When an in-app message is sent to the customer from a campaign, the message is sent to all the eligible device_ids.
  • When a push notification is sent to the customer from a campaign, the notification is sent to all the eligible device_ids. To send the push notification to only the last device used by the customer, contact support@blueshift.com
