That does look feature rich. If you don't mind, please report back your research on this and how well notifications work with and without firebase (if you plan to use without).

I'm using Unified Push. I don't use Google at all. I'm on a custom rom with microg.

So far I have tried:

  • Email

  • Browser (PC, Xbox, PS5, phone)

  • AutoHotkey script

  • C#

  • Raspberry Pi

  • Sending Attachments

I have had 0 problems so far. I did notice a delay when the phone was sleeping, but the notification still came through.

I did notice a delay when the phone was sleeping, but the notification still came through.

Delays of seconds or many minutes?

Years ago I tried to do push notifications on android. Android would simply drop connections (connection lost when server pushed) or if it kept them, wouldn't communicate until the device would wake. As I needed these in near real time, it was basically worthless.

This was when Google was respinning their notification efforts. Long ago.

Seconds. And my weather notifications were all there when I woke up this morning.

Just try it. It's super easy to use.
