PushKit (VoIP) delivery issue — user’s device fails to receive VoIP pushes; logging in on that device suppresses VoIP pushes for all devices of that user
We are facing an issue where VoIP notifications are not delivered to a user's device. If we login with the user credentials on another device the VoIP notifications are being received, if he logs in on his device VoIP notifications are not being received anymore on all devices. So When the user logs in on the affected device, all devices on that account stop receiving VoIP pushes (including the affected one). Logging out on the affected device restores delivery to other devices. What could cause this issue? It's only happening for this user so the configuration and mobile app PushKit code is working as intended.

Questions for AlarmKit
We are so interested in AlarmKit which is presented at WWDC25. While we planning our app using AlarmKit, We had a few questions come to mind and were hoping you could provide some clarity. Please excuse the rather long list of questions, as we don't currently have a device available to test these features ourselves. System Actions Related Is there a limit to the number of alarms that can be scheduled using AlarmKit? Are alarms scheduled with AlarmKit persistent across device reboots? When an alarm is dismissed (either by swiping or pressing the power button), can our app detect this action and execute code in response? Can we control the behavior of the physical Lock Screen buttons when an AlarmKit alarm is active, for instance, to trigger a snooze action? Does AlarmKit function correctly during Do Not Disturb or Low Power Mode? What is the expected behavior when an alarm from our app (using AlarmKit) overlaps with an alarm from another app that also uses AlarmKit? Which one is going to get its priority? Thank you for your help. Sincerely

NSUserNotificationsUsageDescription only works for certain locales
I'm trying to provide custom localized descriptions for the iOS notification permission popup in my app, which supports multiple locales. To achieve this, I'm using InfoPlist.strings files per locale with the following keys: NSUserNotificationsUsageDescription NSUserTrackingUsageDescription The issue I'm facing is that NSUserTrackingUsageDescription is working correctly across all tested locales, but NSUserNotificationsUsageDescription only works for some locales. Locales tested: Working: ja, tr, fr-CA Not working: fr-BE, nl-BE In each case, the correct localized NSUserTrackingUsageDescription appears, but the NSUserNotificationsUsageDescription falls back to the default or does not appear as expected in fr-BE and nl-BE. I'm using Xcode 16 and testing on both iOS 18 simulator and physical devices, and the issue is consistent across both. Any insights on whether this is a known issue in iOS or if there are additional steps needed for NSUserNotificationsUsageDescription to localize properly would be greatly appreciated.

Game Center and Push Notifications
I have used the Push Notifications Console and verify that the test notification reaches my device (it says "not necessarily the app"). However, GameCenter notifications are not reaching the app. When one device passes the turn, the turn is successfully passed as seen in the Matchmaker VC. However, the app does not get the turn pass notification whether or not it is running. No banner appears if the app is not running (but it does when using the Push Notifications Console). Please advise.

Device token not being extracted - iOS app registered for push notifications but callback methods not called
Background: The project was created in Xcode 5, then recreated in new Xcode. Before migration, push notifications worked without issues, after migration device token stopped being extracted. Problem: iOS app registers for push notifications, but didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken or didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError methods are not being called. Current situation: App is registered for push notifications (isRegisteredForRemoteNotifications = true) Notification permissions are granted Entitlements are configured correctly (aps-environment: development) Bundle ID: com.autoserviceonline.app Team: BUSINESSVISION COMPANY, TOO (NS3FSG45V7) But callback methods are not being called What I've already tried: Deleted and recreated all App IDs in Apple Developer Portal Cleared Xcode cache and derived data Created new APNs certificates and provisioning profiles Removed "ghost" certificate from Keychain Access Problem persists Additional information: Also noticed that Push Notifications Console opens non-existent project "BV.TestSwiftData" with Personal Team instead of current corporate App ID com.autoserviceonline.app. These issues might be related to project migration from old Xcode. Request: Why iOS doesn't call callback methods for device token, although registration was successful?

Push Notifications Failing - Xcode shows "Untitled" Certificates & "No App ID" for Push Console after Org Account Migration
Hi everyone, I recently migrated my individual Apple Developer account to an Organization account for my company "". My Team ID remained the same. I'm now facing persistent issues with code signing and push notifications for my iOS app (Bundle ID: com.).
 Current Problems:
 "Untitled" Certificates in Xcode: When I go to Xcode -> Settings -> Accounts -> [My Apple ID] -> Select "" Team -> "Manage Certificates...", a number of my newly created Apple Development and Apple Distribution certificates are listed древ "Untitled". Some older ones are "Revoked". (See attached screenshot if possible).
 "No App ID" for Push Notifications Console: In my app target's "Signing & Capabilities" tab, I've added the "Push Notifications" capability. However, when I click the info button to open the "Push Notifications Console", it states: "no app IDs: Register an App ID with the Push Notifications capability enabled to use the Push Notifications console." This is despite the fact that the Push Notifications capability IS enabled for my App ID com. in the Developer Portal, and I've configured an APNs Auth Key (.p8) for it.
 Push Notifications Not Received (from Backend): While I can successfully send a test push notification directly from the Firebase Console to my device's FCM token, notifications triggered by my backend (Firebase Cloud Functions writing to a Firestore collection, which then triggers another function to send via FCM) are not being delivered to iOS devices. (Android seems to be working more reliably now).
 Setup: Using an APNs Authentication Key (.p8) linked to my Organization Team ID in Firebase Cloud Messaging. Main App ID com. has "Push Notifications" capability enabled. Notification Service Extension com..ImageNotification also has its App ID and Provisioning Profile set up for the Organization team. Created new Development and Distribution certificates and Provisioning Profiles specifically for the Organization team. Using "Automatically manage signing" in Xcode with the Organization team selected for both the main app target and the extension target.
 Troubleshooting Done: Revoked old/problematic certificates and profiles. Recreated CSRs and new Development/Distribution certificates under the Organization team multiple times. Recreated Provisioning Profiles. Cleaned Derived Data in Xcode. Ensured Bundle Identifiers are consistent. Verified APNs Auth Key details (Key ID, Team ID) in Firebase.
 I suspect there's a fundamental issue with how Xcode is recognizing or linking the signing assets for my Organization team after the account type change, despite the Team ID being the same. The "Untitled" certificates are a major red flag.
 Has anyone encountered similar issues, particularly the "Untitled" certificates or the "No App ID" message for the Push Console, after an account migration or when working with Organization accounts? Any insights on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
 Thanks,
Benni

CarPlay: no banner or sound for APNs while connected, works on phone (iOS 18.0, UNNotificationCategoryOptions.allowInCarPlay)
Hi everyone! I’m integrating push notifications for a taxi-driver app and ran into a blocking CarPlay issue. When the iPhone is connected to CarPlay (wired or wireless), the push arrives on the phone without any sound and nothing is shown or announced on the CarPlay screen.

Notifications scheduled but never delivered at scheduled time

VoIP / PushKit notification failure on versions of iOS 18
We are trying to figure out a strange issue. Our app has not changed for at least 10 months but my devices and the QA tester device have all stopped receiving push/call notifications for twilio voip The twilio credential and apple voip services certificate are in date and valid It is pointing to the correct bundle id and topic (not changed configuration for years) token passed in to TwilioVoiceSDK.register() is retrieved from PKPushRegistry as per guide Running locally the Twilio Voice SDK successfully registers and retrieves APNs token What is interesting is if I log in with exactly the same client account on an iOS 18.5 device (and an older iPad) call notifications work perfectly (I have made sure all focus modes/dnd are off and notification settings are identical) The only changes myself and QA have made recently is minor iOS 18 version updates - 18.6.2 and 18.7.1 These now receive Invalid device token from APNs when Twilio attempts to create a call/voip notification for the user identity Our devices sometimes switch environments test/prod so I installed the app cleanly on a borrowed 18.6.2 device and got the exact same issue We have tested on these devices most of the year with no issues. I have been in touch with twilio support and added code to explicitly unregister and re register on an affected device to clear any bindings but it didn't help. Have apple made any changes in PushKit or token behaviour for later versions of iOS 18? Thanks

Environment iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 18.0 CarPlay head-unit: Xcode 16.2 CarPlay Simulator App built with Flutter 3.22 + firebase_messaging: ^15.2.5 Deployment target: iOS 14.0 Xcode capabilities enabled: Push Notifications, Time-Sensitive Notifications App settings on the device: Allow Notifications -› Sounds ON, Show in CarPlay ON Siri › Announce Notifications › CarPlay: master toggle ON + my app added to the allowed list Driving Focus = Off (same result if it’s On) Native setup in AppDelegate.swift UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization( options: [.alert, .sound, .badge, .carPlay] ) { _,_ in } let carPlayCategory = UNNotificationCategory( identifier: "CARPLAY_ORDER", actions: [], intentIdentifiers: [], options: [.allowInCarPlay] ) UNUserNotificationCenter.current().setNotificationCategories([carPlayCategory]) UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self application.registerForRemoteNotifications() APNs payload that I send via FCM { "aps": { "alert": { "title": "New test order", "body": "Location info test" }, "sound": "default", "category": "CARPLAY_ORDER", "interruption-level": "time-sensitive", "relevance-score": 1 } } What could be the problem? Please help me solve the error

Notifications scheduled but never delivered at scheduled time
Device: iPhone (real device) iOS: 17.x Permission: Granted Notifications are scheduled using UNCalendarNotificationTrigger. The function runs and prints "SCHEDULING STARTED". However, notifications never appear at 8:00 AM, even the next day. Here is my DailyNotifications file code: import Foundation import UserNotifications enum DailyNotifications { // CHANGE THESE TWO FOR TESTING / PRODUCTION // For testing set to a few minutes ahead static let hour: Int = 8 static let minute: Int = 0 // For production use: // static let hour: Int = 9 // static let minute: Int = 0 static let daysToSchedule: Int = 30 private static let idPrefix = "daily-thought-" private static let categoryId = "DAILY_THOUGHT" // MARK: - Permission static func requestPermission(completion: @escaping (Bool) -> Void) { let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current() center.requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .sound]) { granted, _ in DispatchQueue.main.async { completion(granted) } } } // MARK: - Schedule static func scheduleNext30Days(isPro: Bool) { print("SCHEDULING STARTED") let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current() center.getNotificationSettings { settings in guard settings.authorizationStatus == .authorized else { requestPermission { granted in if granted { scheduleNext30Days(isPro: isPro) } } return } // Remove old scheduled notifications center.getPendingNotificationRequests { pending in let idsToRemove = pending .map { $0.identifier } .filter { $0.hasPrefix(idPrefix) } center.removePendingNotificationRequests(withIdentifiers: idsToRemove) let calendar = Calendar.current let now = Date() for offset in 0..<daysToSchedule { guard let date = calendar.date(byAdding: .day, value: offset, to: now) else { continue } var comps = calendar.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day], from: date) comps.hour = hour comps.minute = minute guard let scheduleDate = calendar.date(from: comps) else { continue } if scheduleDate <= now { continue } let content = UNMutableNotificationContent() content.title = "Just One Thought" content.sound = .default content.categoryIdentifier = categoryId if isPro { content.body = thoughtForDate(scheduleDate) } else { content.body = "Your new thought is ready. Go Pro to reveal it." } let triggerComps = calendar.dateComponents( [.year, .month, .day, .hour, .minute], from: scheduleDate ) let trigger = UNCalendarNotificationTrigger( dateMatching: triggerComps, repeats: false ) let identifier = idPrefix + isoDay(scheduleDate) let request = UNNotificationRequest( identifier: identifier, content: content, trigger: trigger ) center.add(request) } } } } // MARK: - Cancel static func cancelAllScheduledDailyThoughts() { let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current() center.getPendingNotificationRequests { pending in let idsToRemove = pending .map { $0.identifier } .filter { $0.hasPrefix(idPrefix) } center.removePendingNotificationRequests(withIdentifiers: idsToRemove) } } // MARK: - Helpers private static func isoDay(_ date: Date) -> String { let formatter = DateFormatter() formatter.locale = Locale(identifier: "en_US_POSIX") formatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd" return formatter.string(from: date) } private static func thoughtForDate(_ date: Date) -> String { guard let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "thoughts", withExtension: "json"), let data = try? Data(contentsOf: url), let quotes = try? JSONDecoder().decode([String].self, from: data), !quotes.isEmpty else { return "Stay steady. Your growth is happening." } let calendar = Calendar.current let comps = calendar.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day], from: date) let seed = (comps.year ?? 0) * 10000 + (comps.month ?? 0) * 100 + (comps.day ?? 0) let index = abs(seed) % quotes.count return quotes[index] } } Then here is my Justonethoughtapp code: import SwiftUI import UserNotifications @main struct JustOneThoughtApp: App { @StateObject private var thoughtStore = ThoughtStore() // MUST match App Store Connect EXACTLY @StateObject private var subManager = SubscriptionManager(productIDs: ["Justonethought.monthly"]) var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { ContentView() .environmentObject(thoughtStore) .environmentObject(subManager) .onAppear { // Ask for notification permission NotificationManager.shared.requestPermission() // Schedule notifications using PRO status DailyNotifications.scheduleNext30Days( isPro: subManager.isPro ) } } } } final class NotificationManager { static let shared = NotificationManager() private init() {} func requestPermission() { UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization( options: [.alert, .sound, .badge] ) { _, _ in } } }

VoIP / PushKit notification failure on versions of iOS 18
We are trying to figure out a strange issue. Our app has not changed for at least 10 months but my devices and the QA tester device have all stopped receiving push/call notifications for twilio voip The twilio credential and apple voip services certificate are in date and valid It is pointing to the correct bundle id and topic (not changed configuration for years) token passed in to TwilioVoiceSDK.register() is retrieved from PKPushRegistry as per guide Running locally the Twilio Voice SDK successfully registers and retrieves APNs token What is interesting is if I log in with exactly the same client account on an iOS 18.5 device (and an older iPad) call notifications work perfectly (I have made sure all focus modes/dnd are off and notification settings are identical) The only changes myself and QA have made recently is minor iOS 18 version updates - 18.6.2 and 18.7.1 These now receive Invalid device token from APNs when Twilio attempts to create a call/voip notification for the user identity Our devices sometimes switch environments test/prod so I installed the app cleanly on a borrowed 18.6.2 device and got the exact same issue We have tested on these devices most of the year with no issues. I have been in touch with twilio support and added code to explicitly unregister and re register on an affected device to clear any bindings but it didn't help. Have apple made any changes in PushKit or token behaviour for later versions of iOS 18? Thanks

Critical alerts entitlement.
I submitted the form for the critical alert entitlement but have not received any response for already 2 weeks. How long does it normally take to review such requests? Is there any way I can contact a certain department directly?

didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken Not Called on iOS 18.1.1
I'm experiencing issues with didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken not being called on iOS 18.1.1. Here's what I've tried: Basic Setup: Properly configured UNUserNotificationCenter Requested permissions with requestAuthorization(options:) Registered for remote notifications with registerForRemoteNotifications() Environment: Xcode 16.3 iOS 18.1.1 (physical device) Firebase (tried with and without it) Troubleshooting: Verified provisioning profile includes Push Notifications Confirmed APNs certificate is valid Disabled Firebase's method swizzling Tested on a clean project (works fine) Checked device logs (no relevant errors) Code Snippet: // In AppDelegate.swift public func application(_ application: UIApplication, didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data) { let tokenParts = deviceToken.map { data in String(format: "%02.2hhx", data) } let tokenString = tokenParts.joined() print("📱 Device Token: \(tokenString)") // Store the token for your backend UserDefaults.standard.set(tokenString, forKey: "deviceToken") // Send to backend Task { do { try await APIService.shared.setDeviceToken(tokenString) } catch { print("❌ [AppDelegate] Failed to send device token to backend: \(error)") } } } public func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]? = nil) -> Bool { // IMPORTANT: First handle push notification registration UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self // Request notification permissions self.requestNotificationPermissions() // Register for remote notifications DispatchQueue.main.async { UIApplication.shared.registerForRemoteNotifications() } return true } private func requestNotificationPermissions() { UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.alert, .badge, .sound]) { granted, error in guard granted else { print("❌ Notification permission not granted") return } print("✅ Notification permission granted") } }

Use ONE_TIME_CHARGE may cause some problem
If a notification: ONE_TIME_CHARGE is used to ship the IAP content, it involves a point where the client might not finish the transaction, yet the item is shipped. Will an unfinished purchase affect refunds?
