Push Service

Push services usually refers to the notifications that apps "push" to your phone's notification bar.

That being said, I'm not really sure what the Push Service setting in AirDroid does. I just looked at it, and it's not really clear what it does.

Hi BigLisy, mgsfan,

Push service is for: when you sign in to web.airdroid.com, the AirDroid app starts automatically (prerequisite: you have signed in to AirDroid app with the same AirDroid account).


There are 2 parts of the push service:


1. The Push service in AirDroid settings. It was built by AirDroid devs.
2. GCM.


If you turned off Push Service in AirDroid settings, you can build the connection. But the success rate may drop. So it is recommended to turn it on.


Hope it clarifies your questions.
