Push Notification using Firebase Cloud Messaging

This article will guide you on steps to set up push notifications. Also, you will learn how to set up push notification using Firebase.  

#Firebase #Notifications is a free service that enables user notifications for Android and iOS devices. These notifications can be directed at your individual users; to topics that they subscribe to; or to segments defined by analytics audiences.

To check my firebase push notifications:

1. #Install and run the app on the target device.

2. Make sure the app is in the background on the device.

3. Open the Notifications composer and select New notification.

4. Enter the message text.

5. Select Send test message.
