One more question. I’m expecting possibly thousands of notifications to be sent out to my user base on a daily basis. Is this possible with a free Firebase project, or will I need to upgrade to a paid version?
You’ll only need to upgrade to a paid version if you are using firebase’s cloud functions to call Expo’s push API as you need to be on a paid plan for connections to outside services to work.
I know this post is a bit old but,
I’ve been using expo for multiple apps, and I don’t have any FCM/Firebase setup for them whatsoever, and push notification just works, both for iOS and Android. Am I missing something? I just checked the documentation and on this (link) section it says that you HAVE to set up firebase in order to make it work on Android, but I haven’t, and… it works! @adamjnav , any thoughts?
I just used the normal guide on the expo documentation for push notifications, and it just worked on Android. Not sure if I should (and even how I should) integrate with FCM.
