Hi, With the upcoming changes to the Apple Push Notification service (APNs) server certificates — including the SHA-2 Root: USERTrust RSA Certification Authority certificate update — I wanted to clarify if we need to take any action with Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). Since we’re using FCM to send push notifications to iOS devices, does Firebase also need to update its server certificates in response to these changes, or will Firebase handle the updates automatically? We understand that Apple recommends updating our Trust Store to include the new certificates for APNs, but we’re unsure if any action is needed on our end for FCM specifically. Thanks in advance for the clarification!

Hello! I am working on an app that requires to send a local push notification to the user from an app extension (from the ShieldActionDelegate to be precise). This is suggested by DTS as a workaround for this issue: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/766644 But now, on the iOS 18.2 beta, local push notifications are delayed by up to 10 seconds, even though the push notification is classified as .timeSensitive, leading to a very bad user experience (where to user has to sit and wait for the notification to arrive without knowing how long it will take). This only happens when Apple Intelligence is turned on. This had happened previously on the iOS 18.1 beta but was fixed for the final release: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/764848 But now the issue came back on the latest iOS 18.2 beta. I have documented the new behavior in FB15668616 Any help is appreciated!

I am developing an app which makes use of actionable notifications. On my code (the func userNotificationCenter function), I need to read my users from the local storage on the iPhone: let query: [String: Any] = [ kSecAttrService as String: "uio-auth", kSecAttrAccount as String: "users", kSecClass as String: kSecClassGenericPassword, kSecReturnData as String: true ] var result: AnyObject? SecItemCopyMatching(query as CFDictionary, &result) let ref = result as? Data But when the same code execute when I tap on the notification on the Apple Watch, it doesn't fetch anything. It now occurs to to me: Does it mean that when an actionable notification programmed for the iOS is displayed on the Apple Watch, it tries to access its own storage, and not the iPhone? If so, is there a nice way to pass the values to the watchOS so that when the callback for the actionable notifications run, it has then the data it needs?

Somebody help me please. I try to set specific time for notification, it works nice, but if you need a little beat more functional this is where difficulties appear. I'd like to give opportunities for repeat, example every hour. I know that UNCalendarNotificationTriger has a repeat value, but when you set repeat on true it remember date component, exp - .minute, and then just repeating notification every time when that minute comes! I'm looking for solution for set notification at special time(exp: 5:00 pm), and then repeating this notification every hour(6, 7, 8, 9 pm) Maybe it's so easy but looks like I feel stuck 😕

With apple intelligence enabled I am seeing a 10-15 sec delay in push notification. This is actually causing issue with my alarm system, door bells and 2FA requests. I'm using iPhone 16 Pro. First installed 18.1 Dev beta 5 and AI and noticed this. When beta 6 was released it continued. I put in FB15389900.

My app uses custom notifications with custom images. Why do these images get mixed up with those from other apps, causing my notifications to display images from other apps? `INImage *avatarImage = [INImage imageWithImageData:imageData]; NSPersonNameComponents *nameComponents = [[NSPersonNameComponents alloc] init]; nameComponents.nickname = content.title; INPersonHandle *handle = [[INPersonHandle alloc] initWithValue:nil type:INPersonHandleTypeUnknown]; INPerson *messageSender = [[INPerson alloc] initWithPersonHandle:handle nameComponents:nameComponents displayName:content.title image:avatarImage contactIdentifier:nil customIdentifier:customIdentifier isMe:NO suggestionType:(INPersonSuggestionTypeNone)]; INSpeakableString *speakableString = [[INSpeakableString alloc] initWithSpokenPhrase:content.subtitle.length ? content.subtitle : @""]; INSendMessageIntent *intent = [[INSendMessageIntent alloc] initWithRecipients:@[messageSender] outgoingMessageType:(INOutgoingMessageTypeOutgoingMessageText) content:content.body speakableGroupName:speakableString conversationIdentifier:identifier serviceName:nil sender:messageSender attachments:nil]; [intent setImage:avatarImage forParameterNamed:@"speakableGroupName"]; INInteraction *interaction = [[INInteraction alloc]initWithIntent:intent response:nil]; interaction.direction = INInteractionDirectionIncoming; [interaction donateInteractionWithCompletion:nil]; UNNotificationContent *_content = [content contentByUpdatingWithProvider:intent error:nil]; UNNotificationRequest *request = [UNNotificationRequest requestWithIdentifier:identifier content:_content trigger:trigger]; [UNUserNotificationCenter.currentNotificationCenter addNotificationRequest:request withCompletionHandler:completionHandler];`

I created a local notification as follows: func scheduleNotification(title: String, subtitle: String = "", date: Date, id: String) { // Extract the components from the date let calendar = Calendar.current let hour = calendar.component(.hour, from: date) let minute = calendar.component(.minute, from: date) let second = calendar.component(.second, from: date) // Set the extracted components into DateComponents var dateComponents = DateComponents() dateComponents.hour = hour dateComponents.minute = minute dateComponents.second = second let content = UNMutableNotificationContent() content.title = title content.subtitle = subtitle content.sound = UNNotificationSound.default let action1 = UNNotificationAction(identifier: Constants.NOTIFICATION_ACTION_IDENTIFIER_1.id, title: Constants.NOTIFICATION_ACTION_IDENTIFIER_1.label, options: []) let action2 = UNNotificationAction(identifier: Constants.NOTIFICATION_ACTION_IDENTIFIER_2.id, title: Constants.NOTIFICATION_ACTION_IDENTIFIER_2.label, options: []) let category = UNNotificationCategory(identifier: "reminderCategory", actions: [action1, action2], intentIdentifiers: [], options: []) UNUserNotificationCenter.current().setNotificationCategories([category]) content.categoryIdentifier = "reminderCategory" let trigger = UNCalendarNotificationTrigger(dateMatching: dateComponents, repeats: false) let request = UNNotificationRequest(identifier: id, content: content, trigger: trigger) // add our notification request UNUserNotificationCenter.current().add(request) } and I also have func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresent notification: UNNotification, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void) { // Handle foreground presentation options completionHandler([.sound, .badge]) } but for some reason the notification only shown on the phone. I've made sure that the phone is locked, apple watch is unlocked and also the notification setting in the watch app for this app is set to mirror.
