Deleting items from Mac, notify iPhone?

Hi, if I delete data from my Mac that is also on my iPhone (like iMessages) will it send a push notification to my phone either the first time I do it or even every time I do it?

thnx

No, you won't get notifications on your iPhone saying that you were just deleting stuff using your Mac. However, if you are synchronizing data through iCloud, and you delete synchronized data from the Mac, the iPhone's contents WILL reflect that deletion, once the iPhone learns about it.


E.g., if you are using iCloud Photos, deleting a photo on ANY device connected to the same iCloud Photo library will trigger the deletion of that photo EVERYWHERE.
