PushSharp is a server-side C#/.NET library for sending push notifications to iOS/OSX (APNS), Android/Chrome (GCM/FCM), Windows/Windows Phone, Amazon (ADM), and Blackberry devices. It provides an async, event-driven broker API for queuing and dispatching notification batches with per-notification success/failure handling.

Use cases

  • send push notifications to iOS devices from a .NET server
  • send APNS notifications from C#
  • push notifications library for .NET
  • send FCM or GCM messages to Android devices from a backend
  • send Windows Push Notification Service messages from C#
  • queue bulk push notifications with failure callbacks in .NET

When to choose

  • You need a single .NET library to fan out push notifications across Apple, Android, Windows, and Amazon platforms
  • You want an async broker that queues notifications and reports per-device failures via events
  • You are building a C# backend that must deliver device tokens to APNS or GCM/FCM endpoints

When to avoid

  • You need modern APNS token-based (p8) or HTTP/2 authentication and the FCM v1 API, which PushSharp's legacy certificate-based clients predate
  • You rely on Google C2DM or GCM, both of which Google has shut down
  • You are not working in .NET/C# or need an actively developed alternative such as a cloud messaging service
