They use firebase for push notifications. GCM (Google Cloud Messaging) has been moved to firebase, and it can now also do Apple notifications I think so it makes sense to just stick to one.

- erinaceousjones 6y agoAccording to the repo [1] they're using: apply plugin: 'com.google.firebase.crashlytics' com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging [1] https://github.com/nhsx/COVID-19-app-Android-BETA/search?p=1&q=firebase&unscoped_q=firebase https://github.com/nhsx/COVID-19-app-Android-BETA/search?p=1... I assume crashlytics is for crash dumps only, could firebase-messaging pull in firebase-analytics?
