Conversations can be a unified push distibutor: https://unifiedpush.org/users/distributors/conversations/
..and I'd trust it (battery-wise) with that. I have an old tablet with conversations running without battery restrictions on it, and if I'm not actually picking it up and using it it regularly goes 1-2 weeks on an 80% battery charge before it dies, the whole time giving audible notifications for XMPP messages/calls (which I attend to on other devices).
Yeap, I noticed it being a unified push distributor, actually in its settings on can find the option to enable it.
OK, I won't worry about battery usage then. But the argument about unified push notifications not being useful, but the GCM/FCM actually found useful is somehow hard to understand. But I understand what you're saying about battery usage. Thanks a lot !
This is suuuper cool! So you just need a second android device and can run the UnifiedPush on there?
No, the "distributor" is the part which runs on your portable device, receives the push notifications, and wakes up the target apps as necessary.

Yes thats what I meant. Very cool concept.
