Good day) I am developing an application for generating PKPASS in Java. PKPASS itself is generated and installed on the device and updated. But I encountered a problem. When sending information about the update to the APNs service, PKPASS is updated, but the push notification is not shown on the device. On the device, all tooltypes are set to receive the update. As well as the basic settings: We go to the APNs service using = JWT token. "apns-push-type"= "alert" "apns-topic" = PassTypeIdentifier payload = {} I would also like to add that we send push notifications to the production environment. P. S. Six months ago, push notifications came

We have an app in Swift that uses push notifications. It has a deployment target of iOS 15.0 I originally audited our app for iOS 26 by building it with Xcode 26 beta 3. At that point, all was well. Our implementation of application:didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken was called. But when rebuilding the app with beta 4, 5 and now 6, that function is no longer being called. I created a simple test case by creating a default iOS app project, then performing these additional steps: Set bundle ID to our app's ID Add the Push Notifications capability Add in application:didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken: with a print("HERE") just to set a breakpoint. Added the following code inside application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: along with setting a breakpoint on the registerForRemoteNotifications line: UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.badge, .alert, .sound]) { granted, _ in DispatchQueue.main.async { UIApplication.shared.registerForRemoteNotifications() } } Building and running with Xcode 26 beta 6 (17A5305f) generates these two different outcomes based upon the OS running in the Simulator: iPhone 16 Pro simulator running iOS 18.4 - both breakpoints are reached iPhone 16 Pro simulator running iOS 26 - only the breakpoint on UIApplication.shared.registerForRemoteNotifications is reached. Assuming this is a bug in iOS 26. Or, is there something additional we now need to do to get push notifications working?

Docs mention the following about the timestamp field returned by APNs: "The time, represented in milliseconds since Epoch, at which APNs confirmed the token was no longer valid for the topic. This key is included only when the error in the :status field is 410." We would like to clarify whether this timestamp is subject to the fuzzy schedule or whether it represent the accurate time of when APNs knew that the token became invalid? We understand that using 410 for tracking purposes is off label. However we still would like to have the most accurate information in regards to when token became invalid. This will help us debug user issues better in cases when they re-install, uninstall, change permission settings, etc.

I'm developing an app which will show the driver ETA and rendering the progress bar of the current ETA. Intuitively the backend server sends the push notification every 3 seconds through firebase cloud message service to APNS so that the device can refresh the dynamic island smoothly. But the live activity doesn't refresh as frequently as the backend service does. It should refresh every 3 seconds but it turns out like refresh 30 ~ 60 seconds, sometimes it didn't refresh at all. any body facing the same?

I am unable to connect to APNs sandbox push endpoint from our backend servers. It works fine when hitting the request from my local machine but it fails from the infra servers. Here are the complete curl details. Endpoint: https://api.sandbox.push.apple.com:443 CURL request and response: curl -v https://api.sandbox.push.apple.com:443 Trying 17.188.168.149:443...

The docs are conflicting. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/activitykit/starting-and-updating-live-activities-with-activitykit-push-notifications#End-the-Live-Activity-with-a-custom-dismissal-date says: When you end a Live Activity, by default the Live Activity appears on the Lock Screen for up to four hours after it ends to allow people to glance at their phone to refer to the latest information. However here it says: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/activitykit/displaying-live-data-with-live-activities#Understand-constraints A Live Activity can be active for up to eight hours unless its app or a person ends it before this limit. After the eight-hour limit, the system automatically ends the Live Activity, and immediately removes it from the Dynamic Island. However, the Live Activity remains on the Lock Screen until a person removes it or for up to four additional hours before the system removes it — whichever comes first. As a result, a Live Activity remains on the Lock Screen for a maximum of 12 hours. So is it 4 hrs OR '8 for Dynamic Island vs 12 for Lock Screen'?

Good day) Colleagues, please tell me how can I change the notification on the locked screen "pass changed" in PKPASS when changing several fields? Thank you very much for your answer

Hey there, i start a live activity with notification , and but sometime it can not update, it happens sometime and make me so confuse; like about 2025-08-19 +8.0 09:20:52 updatetoken : 40ead3fd4dd4a934548c5455c645fc6920edfaa0ddad98abd619dc1d2662389c15d3dc3b420bdec733d9438d25ae61cb55601ae64292b3064a71ffb8d0355633f3f0f2254e6f7438282ce83366d8430c app can not accept push update msg, and APNs has show success when server send update msg to APP; how can i check the APNS to APP? Thanks

I created new APNS key, when i clicked on download, this is the error am getting: Download Failed Auth Key can only be downloaded once. This auth key has already been downloaded. I dont have any key before and i have not downloaded the key before, it just a new key, i just created. Please this is affecting the release of our client app, and the client is having negative thought concern our service not knowing it from you guys.

I'm struggling to understand what the impact of this flag is. Docs only say: For devices running iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 or later, you can add input-push-token: 1 to your payload to start a Live Activity and receive a new push token. After you receive a new push token, you can use it to send updates to a Live Activity. But things were working fine for iOS 17. Right? Does it somehow make the OS emit update tokens faster/more successfully? Should I include in all start, update, end events?

We are observing a significant increase in 410 "Unregistered/ExpiredToken" responses from APNs when sending push notifications after 20 July. According to documentation, this indicates that the device token is no longer valid for the specified topic. However, the sudden spike raises questions about whether there have been any recent updates or changes to APNs' token invalidation logic. Could you please confirm: Whether there have been any recent updates in APNs behavior related to 410 responses? If there are best practices or recommendations for handling large volumes of token invalidations in order to detect uninstallations?

I've added a Notification Service Extension as a target to my React Native iOS app following Apple's official documentation. After completing all the setup steps as outlined in the documentation, the notification titles remain unchanged - notifications are arriving without any modifications, suggesting the extension isn't functioning properly.Testing Details: Sending notifications via Apple Push Notification Console Tested on iPhone 16 Pro Max (physical device) Tested on iPhone 15 Pro simulator Both show the same issue - no title modifications The extension appears to not be executing at all. Has anyone encountered similar issues with Notification Service Extensions in React Native projects, or can suggest troubleshooting steps to verify the extension is properly configured and running?

Hi, I have a ninth generation iPad updated to iPados 26 beta 3 but now it no longer updates to the latest version of iPados 26, what can I do?

Does the alert only serve the following purposes: required for start events require for any event that needs to alert the user (with sound or having the live activity show in expanded presentation) while its content DO NOT matter. Only the presence of the field and its attributes matter. The only time its content matter are when the receiving device is an Apple Watch. Is that correct?

When sending multiple push to start notifications to start a live activities in a short time frame, after around 10 pushes live activities are no longer being started. Device logs show the following entry: Push-to-start budget exceeded for com.att.tlv.myatt::pushToStart; not starting activity What can be done to be able to open more live activities via push-to-start in a short time frame (increase the push-to-start budget)? Can this be related to the development environment and it will not happen on production? NSSupportsLiveActivitiesFrequentUpdates is already set to YES

When running application after installation I get a value in pushTokenUpdates and also the call to pushToStartTokenUpdates returns with the token value. But, if I kill the app and restart it again, there is no value in pushTokenUpdates and the call to pushToStartTokenUpdates does not return. Am I suppose to use the push to start token from the previous application run? is there a different solution?

If I run the following code in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions() UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .badge, .sound]) { granted, error in if granted { DispatchQueue.main.async { application.registerForRemoteNotifications() } } } Then the result is that didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken() gets called. However if I change the code to be just: DispatchQueue.main.async { application.registerForRemoteNotifications() } Or as as its already running on main in this scenario, then just application.registerForRemoteNotifications() Then didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken() does NOT get called, but also neither does didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError(). Obtaining a push token is supposed to be independent of the user granting notifications permissions, so why am I not observing that behavior? I only observe this behavior when running on hardware, when running on the simulator both forms of the code work. Yet its nothing to do with my phone not being able to contact the Apple servers etc. - if I change the code back and forth back and forth between the two then if 100% works when using requestAuthorization() and 100% doesn't when not using it. There's nothing additional or out of the ordinary with the code, its standard app delete template stuff. Why isn't it getting a push token when requestAuthorization() isn't used? (I've tried adding an async delay to calling registerForRemoteNotifications(), but it made no difference).
