I tried to implement push notifications mainly for the hybrid android app I build with meteor. Tried the raix:push atmosphere package one will easily find on google as first reference on google. After it seemed not to work we also tried OneSignal as a complete solution.

In the end I tried to set up FCM without any wrapper around it. And then I realized that google play services is required in order to use FCM at all.

Now our Question is:

We have an App which we won't distribute via Google Play Store. Is it still possible to use Google Play Services to use push notifications (FCM/GCM) ?

Any further hints and explanations are welcome.

best regards

  • I was dumb not including google-services.json and the other settings to build.gradle. For everyone using meteors build option to build a cordova app. You need to open your android project you build with "meteor build" with android studio and follow the steps given in "Notifications" on https://console.firebase.google.com/. – tabulaR Sep 04 '17 at 10:57
