[Q] Push notifications other than GCM

Hi All,
This question is to Android application developers.
We have integrated GCM for push notification in our Android app. However, when a user force closes / kills the app, the user no longer gets notifications unless he / she opens the app again.
However, I have seen many other apps still delivering notifications even when app is killed / force closed.
Can you recommend any other push notification service which works even when app is killed / force closed?
Regards,

How to disable distractive apps for specific period of time?

I am looking for a way I can disable selected distractive apps during particular time of the day but still want to receive calls, sms or messages from particular selected apps.
In my old rooted phone I have used AFwall+ for that reason so selected apps can't access Internet connection. Since I haven't rooted my new phone and not planing of doing that atm so I cant use AFwall+.
Also I can't just turn off phone Internet connection because I need some selected apps stay connected.
So lets say I want to have such setup:
Viber - disable
SMS - enable
Skype - disable
FB - disable
FB messanger - enable
Gmail - disable
Calls - enable
disable means I do not want this app to access Internet and distract me with any sort of UI notifications
enable means I want the app working and deliver notifications for me as normal
Any thoughts ?
First, I think you mean distracting, not destructive.
Greenify can block the apps, but not only during certain times of the day.

It is interesting app that disabling notifications but Android still showing the rounded notifications badges over icons. Is there a way to getting rid of these badges too?
UPDATE 1:
I just was following this article that https://www.h3xed.com/mobile/how-to-remove-icon-badge-notifications-on-android-samsung-touchwiz but button 'disable' is not active so I cant disable the 'BadgeProvider'
UPDATE 2:
Then I followed this one http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...e-disable-app-icon-badge-counter-s7-edge.html and by using 'Package Disabler Pro' the 'BadgeProvider' was being successfully disabled.
So basically in order to stop notifications on non rooted S7 we need to apps
1) Greenify
2) Package Disabler Pro
I have yahoo mail, which sends its fake news. that I don't read. I want to dump the fake news .

Insufficent right notifications can't be blocked, why?

On an Oneplus 2, using OxygenOS, I revoke all data sensitive rights from the "Google Play services" and "Google App" apps for privacy. It seems most Google apps don't rely strongly in these background services. Google Maps for example is still working fine, given the right to use Location itself.
Now there is a notification every some hours, that the service app will not work well without those rights and user experience will suffer.
So I also revoke both service apps of notifications (by checking Settings -> Apps -> App info -> Notifications -> Block all).
However, the notifications still occur.
-How can those apps circumvent the notification block?
-Maybe the notification is issued by the system on insufficent rights, and not the application itself?
-How can I find out how to block those annoying notifications?
-Maybe those apps abuse another service app to place their notification, if so how can I find this linkage?

App and privacy issues

Hello all,
I've got a newspaper app installed and I did the following in terms of permissions:
- Application data usage - Disabled "Allow background data usage"
- Battery - Disabled "Allow background activity"
- Battery - Enabled "Optimise battery usage"
The still sends me news notifications. Not a lot but enough to concern me that despite my restricting its background activities, the app is still able to check for news and send me notifications. I know I can disable the app notifications but that just means that I won't see them. It doesn't mean that the app will not be able to run in the background and continue to access the internet despite my explicit restrictions.
Am I misunderstanding something here? Please advise.

When did the app send you notifications? Just when you open it, or after you had cleared it from memory?
I open it to read the papers in the morning. Then I close the app and swipe it out from the recent apps menu

"Check Access Settings" / Accessibility Usage Notifications

Android 12 has added additional privacy reminders/safeguards which I respect highly.
However, I utilize a third party password generator and manager. This manager has autofill process that requires accessibility access. This triggers a notification ~2 per week reminding me that I have given up some privacy:

These cannot be turned off, I understand why. But as an "advanced" user is there any way to manually disable these or whitelist Bitwarden from these.
Whether using ADB or some other method.
Did you find a way to get rid of those notifications?
I'm interested in getting rid of this too.
I use Greenify and the warning pops up every couple of days.
There's no "forever" option on snoozing the notification.
Anyone? I get them too, for Bitdefender. Very annoying
Use an app called AutoNotification
