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
