I am working on creating a proximity platform for my clients. Where clients receive push notifications on their mobiles. I hear that Google is shutting down their google nearby api. I was also told that google connections & messages perform the same functions, kind of defeats the purpose of shutting down nearby if there is an alternative route. Is this true?

Thanks

  • So far from the [Google Nearby documentation](https://developers.google.com/nearby/), they haven't disclosed any announcement yet. – MαπμQμαπkγVπ.0 Nov 01 '18 at 07:48
  • If you're referring to this https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2018/10/discontinuing-support-for-android.html, it's specifically about Nearby Notifications, which seems was a sub-project of Nearby API. Nearby API seems to still exist. – User Mar 04 '20 at 20:18

It is true but developers can still push proximity based notifications in their own apps using Proximity Beacons API.

  • The article is specifically about Nearby Notifications, which isn't the entire Nearby API. – User Mar 04 '20 at 20:17
