You can use a different service like ANS (Alert Notification Service), but it will not help very much. As of today, Android does not have a native service similar to ANCS on iOS. You will therefore have to use the notification API in the Android SDK, and create your own app that is running in the background of your phone.</p> <p>-Anders</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
