    Pusher
    As I told you earlier, if you just want to send regular push notifications to the app users, then Pusher shall not be your first choice. However, if you wish to make the app a little more interactive by making live changes in the app using Pusher and sending your user's real-time notifications, then you should definitely try it.

    Pusher
    • Pusher allows live changes in the UI using push requests. We can also integrate it with the PHP source code.
    • They offer 99.99% uptime, so we can trust on their services.
    • Pusher works well along with the Flutter codebase, so we do not have to modify it much to work on cross-platforms.

    Pusher
    • We had over ten thousand customer orders go through over the course of a year with no problems with this API
    • There was very minimal support for this API which allowed us to focus on other priorities.
