How can I send Android notifications from my Unity game?

Question

I'm want to send local notification on Android with Unity3D but I don't know how to do it. Any suggestions?

When should these notifications be sent? What kind of content or action do they need to support? — DMGregory, Commented Apr 1, 2018 at 18:47

If you want to make it yourself (if you for some reason need a more complex system), you can read this discussion: https://forum.unity.com/threads/push-notifications-on-unity-android.126528/

In case the forum or the linked post shuts down, here's a general overview of the information contained within:

There is no native Unity support for it.
It's really difficult to build it yourself, so it is recommended you don't because there are plugins that people have already made for it.
If you want to do it yourself, you'll have to go into the Android documentations and figure out how to communicate to it from within Unity.

Then there are a few people trying to sell their own solutions on the asset store.

So tl;dr: Use the free assets, it saves you time, money and frustration.

Good luck!

It can be done using FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging)
