Hey Community, is there a way to allow for users to opt in to receiving push notifications in the app? And then to only send to users who opted-in? If so, is there a way to do this without requiring them to log in with firebase authentication? Thank you for any ideas and suggestions you might have. ---

Hey @hhuman - since this component will work even if that app is not open, there’s not block (or combination of blocks) that can handle this programatically. How many users do you have ? To begin, it’s probably just easier to handle opt-out requests manually. ---
