Push notifications & Traccar clients

KK3 years ago

Hi,
I am a bit confused when i read https://www.traccar.org/documentation/notifications/#push
There are two options for push notifications in Traccar:

  1. Traccar notifications to official Traccar Manager app
  2. Direct Firebase notifications to your custom mobile app
    When you say custom mobile app in the point 2), can it be the customized Traccar client app https://www.traccar.org/client/ or is it totally new custom app?
    Can the client apps mentioned here https://www.traccar.org/client/ support push notifications like the manager app without using Firebase?
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards
    KK

Why would Traccar Client need push notifications?

Hi Anton,
Sorry for the bad question and misunderstanding. Since manager app can also push location information to the server (act as a GPS tracker), what is the use case of Traccar client app alone? Can't we use manager app for all the use cases?
Thanks!

No, it can't. Where did you get this information from?

Sorry Anton, it was a mistake from my end. We had installed two apps while testing :(.
