Doesn't Android have a local notification function like iOS does?

  As in, you can pop up a notification from local events? It did several years ago the last time I programmed on it. I'd be surprised if it didn't today. But a poll->local notification isn't technically a push notification.

  It does. You have to keep one running (with it being impossible to dismiss) if you want to prevent your application from being shut down. That's what GP is talking about.

    To be fair I believe you can now "mute" these permanent notifications and you still get the same user experience, although with an extra step.
