[Appwrite Push](/docs/products/messaging/appwrite-push) is a new push provider in Appwrite Messaging. It sends notifications to your apps straight from Appwrite, so you don't need a Firebase project or your users' device tokens.

With Appwrite Push:

- You create the provider in the Console without any credentials.
- Your app subscribes with the Appwrite SDK after the user signs in.
- A message you send to a user reaches every device they're signed in on. If the user also has FCM or APNs targets, register an [Appwrite push target](/docs/products/messaging/appwrite-push#push-target) on one of their devices.
- Devices that were offline get the messages they missed when they reconnect, for up to 7 days.
- On Android, messages arrive even while the app is closed. On iOS, Appwrite Push works with APNs to show messages while the app is suspended.

Appwrite Push works with the Web, Flutter, React Native, Android, and Apple SDKs, and you send messages the same way you send them through FCM or APNs.
