Twitter Push Notifications Strange Issue

[Android Central Question]

Recently moved from iPhone to android (Galaxy s7) and have noticed a strange issue with twitter push notifications.

Everything works fine for 20 minutes or so, but then I only get twitter notifications every 3 minutes. I have tested this by applying push notifications to several individual accounts that post frequently and I am missing a number of notifications and only getting new notifications every 3 minutes.

Thing is when I reset the phone, or go into flight mode, then turn flight mode off, all notifications appear as normal for around 20 minutes or so,then it's back to only every 3 minutes.

I've tried just about everything I can think to remedy this and all other notifications (email, sports scores, etc) are working fine with no 3 minute limit.

Has anyone else noticed this? Any solutions (other than going into flight mode every 30 minutes).

Thanks

Have you tried uninstalling Twitter, restarting the phone, then installing Twitter from scratch?

Yes I've uninstalled and reinstalled, logged out and back in etc. And everytime all push notifications work properly for a while (20-30 minutes or so) and then only arrive every 3 minutes. Oh and when I say every 3 minutes that's only 1 notification, it doesn't deliver several tweets, just one.

All worked fine on iPhone using same options and indeed still does work properly when I use my ipad. Oh and I made sure I logged out of twitter on my ipad before going back to android incase that caused an issue.

I've even logged into twitter on desktop to deregister any older devices incase that was causing an issue.

Very odd.

So has nobody else noticed this strange issue? I have to admit that it's a right pain and only happens with Twitter. I wouldn't mind missing random tweets but I have missed a couple of dm's this week due to the weird notification issue.

I doubt that anyone else has the problem. If, for instance, the President of the US had the problem, we'd have to invent another method of releasing government decisions.
