VideoCall requires Google's Firebase push notifications in order to send/receive calls in Android.

You will need to create an account, obtain your "google-services.json" file and then select the file in your application's properties.

Navigate to https://firebase.google.com/ and create your Firebase account.

Create a project

Access the Firebase Console, and create a new project. Follow the instructions and setup your project.

Important!: You can skip this step if you already register your application for regular notifications.
