Can anyone, who has been working on something like this, tell me what is the best way to implement that?

Answer 1

I think the best way is to use Firebase Cloud Message (FCM), you can send notifications to your Android and iOS devices over an fcm_token provided by Firebase SDK. It's Google solution and simple to use.

If you dont like Google, this is an other 100% free option that allow you to do the same job, One Signal.
