I want to know how to send push notifications to my ionic 2 app. I have searched a lot but still can’t get it to work. Most of the tutorials I came across were old and depreciated. Can anyone please guide me to a working tutorial or a sample project ? I would like to use Firebase for sending notifications ---

This answer helped me: > [@Push Notifications with Ionic 2](https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/push-notifications-with-ionic-2/63851/6): > > This worked for me, sending notifications from the Firebase console. All you need is to add these 3 plugins ⁠⁠⁠ionic plugin add cordova-plugin-inappbrowser ionic plugin add cordova-plugin-fcm ionic plugin add cordova-plugin-velda-devicefeedback And go to [Firebase Console](http://console.firebase.google.com/) Create New Project Add a Name to your project Select which platform you like (ios/android) Add your Package Name which is the id of your app, (you can see it in your config.xml something like id=“com.ionicframework.someTest… ---

I tried your solution but I’m getting the following error while building it : `Please fix the version conflict either by updating the version of the google-services plugin (information about the latest version is available at https://bintray.com/android/android-tools/com.google.gms.google-services/) or updating the version of com.google.android.gms to 9.2.0` Any idea how to fix it ? ---

Type in android in your cmd. Make sure you have Google play services and Google Repository installed under extra’s. I was missing these and got the same error message. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/ionicframework/original/3X/1/3/13f485989e304de50ef37dc5653c6cb60cd6b548.png) ---

Thnx Interpulse. I’ve already checked. All the items in Extras are installed except for `Google USB Driver` and `Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer)` , as these are not compatible with linux. Also my SDK Manager shows no updates for `Google Play services` or `Google Repository` ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/ionicframework/original/3X/0/a/0a8ff6bd8919faf1469a990497c3018cf2967f0b.png) ---

I was searching and I found [this] ([http://stackoverflow.com/a/37311511/5437621](http://stackoverflow.com/a/37311511/5437621)). In my SDK folder, I do have a `/extras/google/m2repository/com/google/android/gms` folder whch contains Play services upto version 9.6.1 How do I set this as the path of Play services in ionic app so it looks in this directory rather than looking into `/extras/google/google_play_services`
