Hi guys,

I'm curious if you know which uses more energy, recieving twitter push notifications via data or recieving two the notifications via SMS?

Thanks

Shawn
 
I don't think there's any definitive metrics available to discern how efficient one is over the other. I also think the energy usage of one over the other is so minute that its really immaterial, but that's just my opinion
 
Historically 3rd party notifications have used up more battery than native apps, so I would be inclined to go with that answer.
