  <h1 itemprop="name" style="margin-bottom:0;">GCM Extensions for Android</h1>

   <p itemprop="description">

GCM extension APIs make it easier to take advantage of enhanced messaging capabilities in your apps, and they can help you simplify your implementation of Google Cloud Messaging.</p>



<p>You can use GCM extensions in any new or existing GCM implementation to build powerful multi-device messaging and presence features for your users.</p>

    <h3 style="clear:left">Key Developer Features</h3>



    <h4>Faster, easier GCM setup</h4>

    <p>Streamlined registration makes it simple and fast to add GCM support to your Android app. <a href="{@docRoot}google/play-services/gcm/gs.html">Learn more &raquo;</a></p>





    <h4>Bidirectional messaging over XMPP</h4>

    <p>GCM's Cloud Connection Service (CCS) lets you communicate with Android devices over a persistent XMPP connection. Communication is asynchronous and bidirectional, and you can use the service in tandem with existing GCM APIs. You can use <a href="https://services.google.com/fb/forms/gcm/">this form</a> to sign up for CCS. <a href="{@docRoot}google/gcm/ccs.html">Learn more &raquo;</a></p>



   <!-- <p>To get started, sign up using <a href="https://services.google.com/fb/forms/gcm/">this form</a> and then learn how to <a href="{@docRoot}google/gcm/ccs.html">send XMPP messages</a>.</p> -->

    

    <h4>Seamless multi-device messaging</h4>

    <p>New user notifications let you send a single message simultaneously to all of a user's Android devices. </p>



    <p>GCM lets you map all of a user's multiple devices to a single notification key, which you can then reference as the target for messages that you are sending to that user.

  <div class="col-6 normal-links">

    <h3 style="clear:left">Getting Started</h3>

    <h4>1. Get the Google Play services SDK</h4>

    <p>The GCM Extension APIs are part of the Google Play services platform. To use the APIs, <a href="{@docRoot}google/play-services/setup.html">set up

      the Google Play services SDK</a>. 

    </p>

            

    <h4>2. Create a Google APIs project</h4>

    

    <p>To use GCM, you need to set up a Google APIs project and get an application key. If you are already using GCM, you can use your existing project and key. <a href="{@docRoot}google/play-services/gcm/gs.html#google_apis">Learn more &raquo;</a></p>



    <h4>3. Set up GCM in your app</h4>

    

    <p>To send and receive messages over GCM, you need to update the manifest and add code to register with GCM and handle messages. See <a href="{@docRoot}google/play-services/gcm/gs.html#manifest">Get Started</a> for details.

    </p>

    

    <h4>4. Integrate GCM with your backend servers</h4>



    <p>A complete GCM implementation requires a server-side implementation, in addition to the client implementation in your app. For complete information, make sure to read the <a href="{@docRoot}google/gcm/index.html">Google Cloud Messaging documentation</a>.

<h1 itemprop="name" style="margin-bottom:0;">Location APIs</h1>

<p itemprop="description">

    The location APIs make it easy for you to build location-aware applications, without needing to

    focus on the details of the underlying location technology. They also let you minimize

    power consumption by using all of the capabilities of the device hardware.

</p>



<p>

    To get started, first <a href="{@docRoot}google/play-services/setup.html">set up</a>

    the Google Play services SDK. You can learn how to use the APIs in the training

    class <a href="{@docRoot}training/basics/location/index.html">Making Your App Location Aware</a>, 

    and details are available in the <a href="{@docRoot}reference/com/google/android/location/package-summary.html">Location API reference</a>. To look at a code example, <a href="">download the sample app</a>.

<h4 style="font-weight:bold">Fused location provider</h4>

<ul>

    <li>

        <em>Simple APIs</em>: Lets you specify high-level needs like "high accuracy" or "low power", instead of

        having to worry about location providers.

    </li>

    <li>

        <em>Always-on location</em>: Gives your apps immediate access to the best, most recent location.

    </li>

    <li>

        <em>Power-efficiency</em>: Minimizes your app's use of power. Based on all incoming location requests and available sensors, fused location provider chooses the most efficient way to meet those needs.

    </li>

    <li>

        <em>Versatility</em>: Meets a wide range of needs, from foreground uses that need highly accurate

        location to background uses that need periodic location updates with negligible power impact.

    </li>



</ul>



<h4 style="font-weight:bold">Geofencing APIs</h4>

<ul>

    <li>

        <em>Simple but powerful APIs</em>: Allows batch addition and removal of geofences. Ability to manage

        multiple geofences at the same time. Ability to filter alerts for both entry and exit or

        entry only or exit only.

    </li>

    <li>

        <em>Optimized for battery</em>: Adjusts location updates based on user’s proximity to the geofence

        and user’s modality (still, walking, driving, and so on).

    </li>

</ul>

</div>



<div class="layout-content-col span-6">

<h4 style="font-weight:bold">Activity recognition</h4>

<ul>

    <li>

        Uses low-power sensors to recognize the user's current physical activity, such as walking,

        cycling, or driving, or remaining still.

    </li>

    <li>

        Great for adding movement awareness to location awareness. Apps can adjust the amount of

        location awareness they provide, based on the current user movement. For example, a

        navigation app can request more frequent updates when the user is driving.

    </li>

    <li>

        Features for advanced applications: For advanced applications that want to do their own

        post-processing, this API also makes available confidence values for each of the activities.

        It also includes two activities that indicate unreliable measurements: unknown and tilt.

    </li>

</ul>
