| Keeping app content fresh is important to retaining users. And it’s easy with |
| the popular <a href="{@docRoot}google/gcm/index.html">Google Cloud |
| Messaging</a> for Android, by sending lightweight messages to your apps |
| installed on Android devices anywhere in the world. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Push messages from your backend servers to tell your apps that there's new |
| content for the user, or other data to sync. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| You can use Google Cloud Messaging for two way messaging too. Another |
| possibility is to improve the experience for users with multiple devices, by |
| syncing content through the cloud so users have the same content on all their |
| devices. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Google Cloud Messaging lets your users stay in sync with your service without |
| draining the user’s battery, as there's no need for your apps poll a server |
| to discover new content. Best of all, Google Cloud Messaging is available for |
| free and there are no quotas. |
