@JmillsExpensify, @roryabraham Huh... This is 4 days overdue. Who can take care of this?

@JmillsExpensify, @roryabraham 6 days overdue. This is scarier than being forced to listen to Vogon poetry!

Not sure how best to action this one. Going to start by creating a bounty to try and track this one down

@arosiclair have you encountered this? Any thoughts?

[arosiclair]

Yeah this is a known issue atm. The push notification styling on both iOS and Android depend on the onyxData in the payload and we remove that when it's too large to fit (usually because the message is too long). We're working on payload compression which should fix that in most cases.
