Based from this thread, you can and should use the same sender_id and server key for Android and iOS given that they are the same application so you don't have any problem with your server key since it's working on iOS.

You can check this documentation, an API key was saved on your app server that gives the app server authorized access to Google services. In HTTP, the API key is included in the header of your POST requests that send messages. In XMPP, the API key is used in the SASL PLAIN authentication request as a password to authenticate the connection.

Hope this helps!
