android - Service connecting to Firebase a bad idea? -

i building android app requires real time updates. server firebase. firebase meant receive updated info when user connected server. impressed firebase far, concern receiving new info when app not active. not want seek these ideas find out bad idea, short on time. looking suggestions , advice.

a service (example). worried battery consumption , going on connection limit if users connected. an alarmmanager run sync every x hours. worried not getting updates enough. using gcm force notification send tickle. worried paying service.

any other suggestions or possible issues missed? time!

edit

i found this thread. still unsure. maybe service not bad idea, per james tamplin (suspect firebase dev)

you want utilize gcm in these situations.

firebase works fine background service, leaves socket open, it's going utilize quite bit of power. powerfulness usage fine when user actively engaged app (the screen uses lot more), when it's running in background, it's going hard on battery life.

in cases, when user isn't actively engaged, they're willing take slower response times, , force services gcm improve value in watts per user happiness.

also, firebase working on adding triggers, demonstrated in this video google cloud platform live, create lot easier integrate force services gcm in future.

and guess james firebase dev. he's 1 of co-founders :)

ios8 - iOS custom keyboard - preserve state between appearances - i'm having performance problems custom keyboard i'm working on. loading words in spell correction tree takes quite bit of time. seems done each time keyboard appears - there way preserve state of keyboard? apps can suspend / resume etc - can't find documentation on how extensions, or if there's mechanism doing att all. thanks! you loading dictionary net or disk? first case nsuserdefaults, encoding (nscopying) options store info. can load in background. according docs, os typically kills extension process, so, think there no way prevent keyboard objects deallocation (you may utilize nskeydarchiver). ios8 ios-app-extension custom-keyboard
