## DESCRIPTION

This plugin is for use with [Cordova](http://incubator.apache.org/cordova/), and allows your application to receive push notifications on both Android and iOS devices. The Android implementation uses [Google's GCM (Google Cloud Messaging) service](http://developer.android.com/guide/google/gcm/index.html), whereas the iOS version is based on [Apple APNS Notifications](http://developer.android.com/guide/google/gcm/index.html)
This plugin is for use with [Cordova](http://incubator.apache.org/cordova/), and allows your application to receive push notifications on both Android and iOS devices. The Android implementation uses [Google's GCM (Google Cloud Messaging) service](http://developer.android.com/guide/google/gcm/index.html), whereas the iOS version is based on [Apple APNS Notifications](http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/ApplePushService/ApplePushService.html)

**Important** - Push notifications are intended for real devices. The registration process will fail on the iOS simulator. Notifications can be made to work on the Android Emulator. However, doing so requires installation of some helper libraries, as outlined [here,](http://www.androidhive.info/2012/10/android-push-notifications-using-google-cloud-messaging-gcm-php-and-mysql/) under the section titled "Installing helper libraries and setting up the Emulator".
