If an iOS application has a notification service extension which gets sent a push, but the user has not been prompted for notification authorization via requestAuthorization() then what is the expected behavior?
Will the push get delivered to the NSE but the resulting notification not displayed? Or will the push not get delivered at all to the NSE?
The NSE will be executed ONLY for notifications that will be visually presented to the user (unless the app has the notification filtering entitlement).
Because of this, the following conditions are required for the NSE to launch:
apns-push-typemust bealert- Payload contains the
alertkey - Notifications must be "on" for the device
- Notifications must be "on" for the app
- App must have notifications authorization
- User must not have turned off the visibility of the app's notifications
- If the device is locked "show notification content" must be on
- App must not have been hidden
