Emergency Push Notifications #73

Closed loganSims closed 7 years ago

Use GCM to send push notifications for highway alerts.

@waynedyck, Google is up to something new. https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/

Looks a little cleaner than GCM.

Migration guide

Based off this link we can remove some code if we don't want to handle user tokens on the server side.

Managing subscriptions seems to be much more sophisticated as well! https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/android/android-migrate-fcm#update_the_usage_of_gcmpubsub

Refactoring this issue.

Allow users to sign up for emergency notification in the app. (Earthquakes, other crisis situations, etc..)

Closing this issue. Should come back as part of the My Route feature #129.
