PushTry is an online push notification testing tool provided by Infoxen Technologies. Its positioning is clear: it lets developers test Apple Push Notification service (APNS), Google Cloud Messaging (GCM), and Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) directly in the browser. It is designed for the mobile app development and testing stages, helping teams quickly verify whether device tokens, certificates, API keys, Bundle IDs, and message content are configured correctly.
Based on the page information, PushTry primarily uses web forms for manual push notification testing. APNS testing supports entering a Device Token, uploading a PEM or P12 file, entering a password and Bundle ID, and selecting Production if needed. FCM/GCM testing supports an API Key or uploading a JSON private key file, along with entering the device token and message content. It also provides setup guides for APNS, GCM, and FCM, plus resources related to migrating from GCM to FCM. The product states that it does not store Device Tokens, API Keys, messages, or certificates, but it does store IP addresses for analytics.
The page clearly states “Free forever for developer community,” so it can be regarded as a free tool for the developer community. Ease of use is its biggest selling point: there is no need to install an SDK, CLI, or local script; users can simply upload credentials and enter a message to run a test. The downside is that the available text does not mention batch jobs, automated testing, CI/CD integration, API access, or team collaboration features. As a result, it feels more like a one-off debugging tool than a full push notification management platform.
Its strengths are that it covers three common push channels—APNS, GCM, and FCM—supports PEM/P12 files and FCM JSON private keys, has a low barrier to entry, and includes basic tutorials. Its weaknesses are that the security explanation is relatively brief, especially given that certificates and private keys may be uploaded; enterprise users may require stricter compliance documentation. In addition, GCM is already a legacy service, yet the page still retains many references to GCM, so its current maintenance activity should be confirmed further.
PushTry is suitable for mobile developers, QA engineers, and backend push notification service developers who need to quickly troubleshoot push configuration issues during integration testing. Teams that require auditing, automated regression testing, bulk push delivery, or private deployment may be better served by Firebase Console, Apple’s official tools, or self-built test scripts. The scraped text does not provide information about access from China, so the status is unknown. If Google/Firebase services are involved, the actual testing workflow may be affected by the reachability of external services from networks in China.
