Connect your Android App to Magento and send direct product update notifications to your users' Android-powered devices through Google Cloud Messaging.
This extension allows your Android application to register or unregister devices through SOAP v.2 (WS-I compliant) API. It will then send automatic product update notifications to Google Cloud Messaging which your application can intercept and notify physical devices.
Requirements
You must be owner or developer of an Android application in order to use this extension. This extension does not send notifications to Android devices direclty and requires an Android app to work with.
Overview
This is the first of it's kind extension that allows for using Google Cloud Messaging with Magento. It allows your Android application to connect with Magento and register or unregister devices. The extension will send automatic product update notifications to Google Cloud Messaging which can then be sent to any physical device with installed app.

How it works
The whole process includes the following steps:
- 1) It all starts with an Android device. When a customer installs your Android app and launches it for a first time it will attempt to register with Google Cloud Messaging servers (GCM).
- 2) GCM registers your device and generates a registration Id for your application.
- 3) If your app successfully registers with the GCM servers, the GCM servers will generate a registration Id for your app/device combo and send it back. The registration Id is a string value that will uniquely identify your app on that one specific device. If it's helpful you can think of this as being the "address" of the app on the phone that GCM will use to locate your app in the future.
- 4) Once your app receives a registration id, it then makes a SOAP call to the Magento and it tries to register the device and the device's regstration id in Magento. Here the extension kicks in and registers the device
- 5) Upon product update in Magento, the extension sends a notification message to GCM using the registration Id to target the app and device.
- 6) GCM sends the message to the apps and devices that match the registration Id(s). If the registration Id is valid, the GCM servers will send the message to the correct app on the correct device.
- 7) Your app opens the message and handles the data appropriately.
- 8) The message can be sent to as many devices that have installed your app and registered with the server.
