Devices let you register specific devices so you can send notifications to them during development and testing — without affecting your real users.
Adding a Device
Get the device FCM token
Retrieve the FCM registration token from the device you want to register. This is typically done by logging the token from your app's FCM initialization code.
Open Devices
Navigate to Messaging → Devices and click + Add Device.
Enter device details
- Name — a friendly name (e.g.,
Luis's iPhone,Android Test Device) - Token — paste the FCM registration token
Save
Click Save. The device is now available in a Test devices audience.
Using a Device in a Campaign
Create or edit an audience with the Test devices mode, select your registered device, then use that audience in a campaign.
Managing Devices
- Click the edit icon to update a device's name or token
- Click the delete icon to remove a device
Note:
FCM tokens can change when a user reinstalls your app or clears app data. Update the token in Firepanel if a device stops receiving notifications.
