Push Functionality
Kiosk Browser Remote relies on push notifications for 95% of communication.
FCM/GCM (Firebase/Google Cloud Messaging) - Google Play Services must be installed for push notifications to work. Note you do not need a Google Account to be logged into the device if you have installed via an APK file.
Pushy (Push Messaging) - For devices that can't use FCM (as above) an alternative system called Pushy will be used, it uses MQTT over HTTPS and delivers identictal functionality EXCEPT it can't wake a device that is in deep sleep by sending a notification to it.
What ports and IP addresses does my device need access to?
