PWA PUSH NOTIFICATION ISSUES IOS 16.4+

Hello Everyone!

After push notifications were enabled we got to work on this feature. for our PWA.

The problem that we are having is that they work great for a little bit and then they suddenly stop working. We thought it was our problem but after doing some research I found that many other developers are having this same issue.

Push notifications work perfectly on Android but don't reach ios users.

Is anyone else having the same issue? Can something be done to fix this?

Thanks!!

I am using FCM and facing the same problem the user initially starts receiving notifications after 3-4 notifications even if the user does nothing and just leaves the PWA open, the user stops receiving notifications foreground and background. On further debugging, I found out that the FCM device token gets changed. Don't know why?

Had the same issue, found an explanation + solution here: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-js-sdk/issues/8010

Hi,

I can confirm, this issue still persists and I don't know how to get rid of it. Subscription works initially. unlike others where it stops after 3-4 Web pushes (which I believe to be linked to not using event.waitUntil() for the local notification), but stops after some 100s of notification out of the sudden.

I can reproduce this on following user agents:

Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 18_3 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/18.3 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1 Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 18_1_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/18.1.1 Mobile/15E148 Safari/604.1

Maybe I'm not looking at the right place to properly do the subscription?

Any help will be much appreciated.
