Push Notifications

AWS will end support for Amazon Pinpoint on October 30, 2026,, and is no longer accepting any new users as of May 20 (see the linked doc). The guidance is to use AWS End User Messaging for push notifications and SMS, Amazon Simple Email Service for sending emails, Amazon Connect for campaigns, journeys, endpoints, and engagement analytics. Pinpoint recommends Amazon Kinesis for event collection and mobile analytics.

Getting started

Enable your users to receive mobile push messages sent from the Apple (APNs) and Google (FCM/GCM) platforms. The Amplify CLI deploys your push notification backend using Amazon Pinpoint. You can also create Amazon Pinpoint campaigns that tie user behavior to push or other forms of messaging.

Messaging campaigns

Use AWS Mobile SDK and the Amazon Pinpoint console to target your app users with push messaging. You can send individual messages or configure campaigns that target a group of users that match a profile that you define.
