Push. That's my plight actually. There are already too many apps trying to find a place in the push notification channels. And given my stance on notifications, I am refraining myself from doing that for now. Planning on surveying my friends and family on this. They might be the right sample space.

When you know a user is likely not coming back you've got virtually nothing to lose by sending them a push or email notification. Active users don't need to get any.
