App crashes on devices with no Google Services installed

robertolaru opened this issue · comments

As per title.
Solution:

  • Catch exception
  • Warn user about push notifications not working

Scheduled notification polling will be implemented in the future, as it is not an urgent feature and most devices do have Play Services installed. See #111

This is also a prerequisite for F-droid (the largest repository of free/libre and open source apps on Android), where you cannot use Google Play Services (even if it's installed on the device) because it has a proprietary license.
