Top Flutter Messaging and Push Notification packages

Last updated: December 4, 2024

There are two types of notifications that can be sent to a Flutter mobile application:

  • Push notification is the most commonly used method where users are able to view the messages without opening the app, typically on the lock screen.
  • In-app notifications are messages that a user receives inside the Flutter application after opening it. These notifications are designed to send more targeted and context-sensitive messages.

In addition to their location (outside or inside the app), push notifications and in-app messages differ from each other in the following way:

  • While a push notification brings the users to the application, an in-app notification guides the users inside the app.
  • A push notification can be delivered any time, but an in-app message works only when the application is open.
  • Push notifications are geared towards users who are potentially disengaged, whereas in-app messages are for users that are already using the app.
  • A user can always disable push notifications for an app, whereas the option to turn off in-app messaging is not always provided to users.

The complete list of Flutter packages that provide Push Notification and In-app Messaging services is provided below.
