Windows store app - Notifications not sending

Question
-
When the user's computer is online, the notification appears. But when the computer is offline, and THEN goes online the notification sent while it was offline does not appear... When my cloud sever sends the notifications , i get an "ok" response. isn't the WNS suppose to send the notification to the user automatically when the user's device goes online? But it doesnt do that.Wednesday, October 30, 2013 8:48 PM

That is expected. Toast notifications are only interesting if they arrive immediately and so they don't get stored up. As noted in the Toast notifications guidelines, apps cannot assume that toasts will always be seen by users and should also present the information in a more persistent manner. One option is to also send the same information as a tile notification.

Read the documentation I gave you above. It describes each of the notifications and their design and limitations. You will see that this is by design and expected.
