Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) now officially part of our push notification service
Customers using ethinking.push now have the possibility to send push notifications to Huawei devices that integrated into Huawei Mobile Services (HMS).
2020 Huawei moved away from using Google Play Services with their newly released devices and replaced them with their own ecosystem. To ensure that users still get push notifications it is necessary to use the Mobile Services provided by Huawei.
In the first step it is required to create an app inside Huawei’s AppGallery Connect and to activate the connected push kit. Following this, you can create an app for the platform Huawei inside the ethinking.push Console and configure it according to your personal requirements. To connect this app with the AppGallery Connect environment you simply enter “App ID” and “App Secret” that you can easily extract from inside your AppGallery Connect setup. This concludes the setup and ethinking.push is successfully connected to the Huawei push-carrier.
