From last 10 days, apns suddenly stopped working. We have raised the firewall request from our servers to apple servers. Even then it's not working. Could you please advise if there is anything changed in this api. Please take it as high priority. Thank you.

Hello Apple Developer Team, I am facing an issue with remote notifications in my iOS app. When the app is in a terminated (kill) state, notifications are successfully received by the device, but none of the app's handlers (like _firebaseMessagingBackgroundHandler in Flutter) are invoked. This is impacting our ability to process silent notifications or perform background tasks reliably when the app is not running. Steps to reproduce: Send a remote notification with content-available: 1 in the payload. Confirm the notification is received by the device while the app is in kill mode. Observe that no background or foreground notification methods are triggered in the app. Expected Behavior: The app should invoke the background handler to process the notification payload, even in a terminated state. Observed Behavior: The notification is delivered to the device, but no app-level processing occurs because none of the methods are triggered. Can you please confirm if this is the intended behavior due to iOS limitations, or if there is a configuration or alternative solution to allow background handlers to execute in such scenarios? Any guidance or clarification would be highly appreciated. Thank you!

I have multiple app ids that are registered with Push Notification, however they do not hsow up in the Push Notification Console for testing.

I need to decode a Base64-encoded receipt from an In-App Purchase and extract the transaction ID from it. However, I want to avoid using the verifyReceipt endpoint since it is deprecated. Can anyone guide me on how to achieve this manually? Are there any specific libraries, steps, or code samples I should follow to parse the receipt data and retrieve the transaction ID? Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated!

Our team also received this email regarding the APNS. I don't know if I need to do something or not, since I haven't found any information in SAP Forums either. Our app uses the SAP Mobile Services push notifications. If any of you know any information about this, please let me know.

We have an application which keeps throwing the error "application is damaged and cannot be opened. You should move it to Trash" We have checked the following possible root causes: Codesign of the application using the codesign command Notarization of the application using the spctl command Executable permissions Checked for the presence of "com.apple.quarantine" flag for the application using xattr -l <path to executables" None of the above listed items seemed to be a problem and are as expected. Can you please help us understand what could cause this issue and how to resolve this without recommending an uninstall/reinstall of the application?

I have integrated a Notification Service Extension in my app to handle rich push notifications with images. The issue occurs on iOS 15 and iOS 18 devices—while the text content of the notification shows, the image is not displayed. However, the rich push notification works fine on other iOS versions (e.g. iOS 16, iOS 17) I’ve tried the following steps: Verified App Groups are the same for both the main app and the extension. Checked the "mutable-content" flag in the notification payload. Added a print statement in the NotificationService.swift to check if it’s running. It doesn’t appear in the Xcode logs. I’ve tried using Attach to Process in Xcode, but nothing happens. The app is installed on a real device, and I’m testing with push notifications when the app is in the background.

Apple Watch doesn't vibrate for notifications version: 11.1 help please

The iOS documentation shows notification actions buttons with the text center aligned: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/declaring-your-actionable-notification-types But there's no apparent way for an app to control this. The buttons are controlled and rendered by the system and the text is always left aligned. Is there some way to get the text center aligned?

I have an app available for download in the Apple App Store. The app sends local notifications, which are scheduled at the user's request once the app launches. I've recently learned that when new versions of my app are deployed and automatically update on the user's device, previously scheduled local notifications are deleted. Given my app design, the user can re-launch the app in order to re-schedule the local notifications. This is a bit of a problem, though, because part of my app's value is in reminding the user - so after requesting a local notification, the user expects to receive a local notification and then launch the app, not the other way around. Given this, I've been exploring solutions so my app continues to function as expected (including delivering local notifications, even if the app hasn't yet been launched) after an app update. I've explored .backgroundTasks(), but they too are apparently deleted with an app update and require the app to be re-launched first to work as expected. Another solution might be to use push notifications instead of local notifications, but that seems like a very involved solution if I'm just looking to make sure that local notifications persist after an app update. I can't be the only person to have this dilemma - am I overlooking a simple solution?

My App supports two services that is Push Notification for Alerts and a Voip Call feature whose notification also comes in the same way as of PushNotification but video rendering is done with GoogleWebRTC. The App was working perfectly fine but from past few months these services are not working.[ Nothing is changed in App and on the server side to push the notifications] Issues: VoIP (Video call) not working: I have apns certificate which is valid in today's date and stays with the backend Server. My server sends the payload notification to APNS but on iPhone am unable to receive it. I have checked the App registration part also and is able to receive the token for the same. Framework used are: PushKit, UserNotifications, GoogleWebRTC . I don't understand where is the gap, the backend triggers the APNS but there no response. Ports enabled on server are: 443, 5223, 2197, 2195, 2196. Similarly Push notification were also not working, So I tried to change it to register on Firebase for device registration token And did some coding at backend to send the notification to that device. It was working perfectly fine from last few weeks, but it suddenly stopped. I checked the JSON Payload and tried to send it through PostMan, in both it says 200 Success. And in Application end am waiting for breakpoint to hit in userNotificationCenter(_: , willPresent, completionHandler). What all I have checked: 1)My server to APNS server connectivity. 2)Verified the apns certificate. The certificate was created in October 2024, whose expiry is in Nov 2025 and it support both Sandbox and Production environment. 3)Checked required delegates are implemented in App. With the capability enable in it, is also sending registration token to backend. Kindly guide me where I can check in this flow. Thanks in Advance!

Ever since I updated the 18.1 I have noticed on both the Uber Driver app and Lyft Driver app that the banner notifications are on a three second delay when a ride notification comes in. These banner notifications have previously shown up immediately when a ride comes in and now it’s anywhere from 3 to 5 seconds before you see them.

I dont want my server to be spammed. Currently I am only in payment-related notifs (eg: user successfully renewed his subscription, user didnt successfully renew his subscriptions, ..) Where can I set that?

Good afternoon) Could you please advise, I need to issue a Wallet-a card with a description of the bonus program for a certain store. I also need to organize sending a unique push to the user's devices if the user's points are burned. Can you please tell me how I can send a unique message to the customer in such a case? Will it be a card update? Java Server Card generation via server

There is an issue with our app when showing a dynamic watch notification. Our app would sometimes receive a push notification with extra payload. In wOS6, the notification would be sent to the watch and show a dynamic detailed notification based on the data within the notification. But ever since wOS7, the watch does not show the data that is being sent. We found out that the UNNotification that is being passed through in WKUserNotificationInterfaceController via. [didReceive:notification:](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/watchkit/wkusernotificationinterfacecontroller/2963125-didreceive) has an empty [userInfo](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/unnotificationcontent/1649869-userinfo). I was wondering if anyone else have that issue. Or was there a change in wOS7 that prevents the userInfo from being received by the watch? Thanks!

I'm having an issue on my standalone watchOS app where the settings to adjust notifications does not appear anywhere on the iPhone or the Watch. I have successfully requested notifications access from the user and have successfully displayed a local notification to them. However, if the user ever decides to revoke my notification access (or if they deny originally and want to change), the settings pane for notifications does not appear anywhere. I've looked in the following places: On the watch in Settings > Notifications, however it looks like you can no longer edit per app notification settings directly on the watch (none of the installed apps on my watch appear in here). The only options are settings like "tap to show full notification" and "announce notifications" which affect all notifications (Why not? Especially for apps that don't have a iPhone companion app?). On the iPhone in the Watch app (the app you set up your watch in), in Watch > Notification. My app does not appear anywhere in there. On the iPhone in the iPhone Settings app, in Settings > Notifications. My app does not appear anywhere in there. On the iPhone in the iPhone Settings app, in Settings > Apps. My app does not appear anywhere in there I've tried: Adding capabilities in Signing & Capabilities for Push Notification, Time-Sensitive Notifications and Communication Notifications Building the app for release instead of debug My app also requires location access and has successfully appeared in the settings pane directly on the watch in Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services, however notification settings do not appear anywhere. I have created a stripped down test app to try and that also does not work. This test code successfully asks the user for permission and (from a button in ContentView), successfully schedules a notification and displays it to the user when they're not in the app. Here's the code for my NotificationManager: import UserNotifications class NotificationManager: NSObject, ObservableObject, UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate { static let shared = NotificationManager() @Published var hasAuthorisation = false private override init() { super.init() UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self requestAuthorisation() } func requestAuthorisation() { UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .sound]) { authorised, error in DispatchQueue.main.async { if let error = error { print("Error requesting notifications: \(error.localizedDescription)") } self.hasAuthorisation = authorised } } } func scheduleNotification(title: String, body: String, timeInterval: TimeInterval) { let content = UNMutableNotificationContent() content.title = title content.body = body content.sound = .default let trigger = UNTimeIntervalNotificationTrigger(timeInterval: timeInterval, repeats: false) let request = UNNotificationRequest(identifier: UUID().uuidString, content: content, trigger: trigger) UNUserNotificationCenter.current().add(request) { error in if let error = error { print("Error scheduling notification: \(error.localizedDescription)") } else { print("Notification scheduled successfully.") } } } } This issue has persisted across two iPhones (recently upgraded) and the watch was wiped when connecting to the new iPhone. Am I missing some code? Am I missing some flag I need to set in my project somewhere? Please can someone with an Apple Watch try this code in a standalone watchOS app and see if the notifications pane appears anywhere for them? I've contacted Apple DTS, but they're taking a while to respond.

Hi all, I have a React web app that we use as a Progressive Web App (PWA). We currently: Use PWA Builder to package it for Android and iOS Host the app on a secure HTTPS URL Use Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) for push notifications (working on Android) However, on iOS, we are unable to get push notifications to work. I understand that PWAs on iOS have limited push support (Safari only, and not through WebView). So I explored using Capacitor, but: Capacitor can load a server.url pointing to our hosted app (great for reuse), but push notifications don’t work If we build the web app locally (npm run build) and embed it in the native iOS shell via Capacitor, push works We would prefer not to fully merge our authentication and main app UIs if avoidable Questions: Is there any approved way to enable push notifications in an iOS .ipa built from a hosted web app (URL) using PWA Builder? If not, is embedding the web assets locally the only Apple-approved way to get push support? Are there any best practices or native plugin recommendations (e.g., APNs or FCM) for handling push notifications in iOS app? Thanks in advance for any guidance. 🙏 Let me know if more technical details would help.

Is it possible to display a live activity on the lock-screen without a dynamic island? Or at least without expanding the dynamic island more than just for a small icon? struct SomeWidgetLiveActivity: Widget { var body: some WidgetConfiguration { ActivityConfiguration(for: SomeAttributes.self) { context in } dynamicIsland: { context in DynamicIsland { DynamicIslandExpandedRegion(.leading) { // Seems to be mandatory, any way around it? } } compactLeading: { } compactTrailing: { } minimal: { } } I couldn't quite find a way. Thank you

If I have data on server that is updated periodically (e.g., daily or weekly), and I want to have that data sync'd to iOS app, what is best way? I want to make sure it will get updated when app is in foreground, background, swiped away (terminated), or following a phone restart. The two ways I'm thinking of are PushKit and User Notifications. I'm currently using User Notifications, but I am finding that sometimes the notification doesn't get processed (haven't yet determined reliable conditions for duplicating this problem). I'm mainly wondering if, given the use case (occasional updates that ideally are processed in background ASAP), this is the best approach.
