• GUI-O application (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.guio.guioapp)

Hardware prerequisites:

• Any Internet enabled board (WiFi, Ethernet) that is compatible with Arduino IDE

1. Retrieve application's universally unique identifier (UUID)

• Open GUI-O application, navigate to settings and select "Info"

• Verify that the text "Available" is displayed under "Push notifications" entry

• Make a note of "Application UUID" (you can share the "Application UUID" by tapping on it)

2. Modify and upload the code

• Open Arduino IDE

• Select "File -> Open"

• Navigate to location where BasicPushNotification.zip archive was extracted (if downloaded)

• Select BasicPushNotification.ino and confirm

• Set your router name and password

• Set your "Application UUID" (retrieved in form the GUI-O app)

• Make sure that your board is connected to your PC

• Ensure that the correct port and baud rate are selected

• Press upload button to start code upload

3. Send a push notification

• Open any serial terminal and connect to your board (baud rate 115200)

• Enter your push notification message on the serial terminal - the text must be terminated with the \n (new line) character.

• Observe the response on the serial terminal - if successful, message "Push notification sent" will be displayed

• Check the push notification on your Android device

NOTE: Customize the sound, vibration, LED light, and priority of GUI-O app notifications by navigating to "Android settings -> Apps -> Manage apps".

If you have any questions or run into any problems, please let me know!
