Hello. I'm currently implementing Apple Notification v2 to prepare for refunds for in-app purchases, but I'm not receiving requests from Apple servers to my backend server. I've applied HTTPS (TLS 1.2) and correctly registered production/sandbox notification URLs on App Store Connect. After requesting a test notification, when I check the status of testNotificationToken, I receive an UNSUCCESSFUL_HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE as follows: {"signedPayload":"......":[{"atteptDate":1752128001970,"sendAttemptResult":"UNSUCCESSFUL_HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE"}]} The endpoint for receiving notifications is set to accept POST requests with application/json format, and it responds with 200 (OK) without any content. However, Apple notifications are not coming through. Could anyone help me with this issue?

Hey there,i start a live activity,but it not works, and sometime it can work; apns-unique-id 46445cfa-1bf6-0f63-5ea3-2afa53e02b0d and it show that " 2025年5月19日 GMT+8 15:13:25.836 received by APNS Server 2025年5月19日 GMT+8 15:13:26.244 discarded as application was not registered" but i did not know how can i do; thanks for you help

Push-notification token is properly requested and displayed from the iOS simulator / xcode, but not from the release in the AppStore... Both popups for permission (push-notifications and critical alert) appear and can be confirmed, but no callback takes place...

My VoIP app is installed on an iPad, but can't accept incoming calls by VoIP push. But it works after I force-restart this iPad. I have some customers who encountered the same cases, fixed by force-restart too. So my question is What happened on the APNs connection after force-restart? At what case, the APNs connection will be off?

I created an app. One if its functionalities is receive Remote Notification in the background, while app is monitoring Significant Location Changes (SLC). This functionality worked fine. I was receiving these notifications correctly. Sometimes instantly, sometime with small or large delay. And then I send the app for review. It was rejected with 3 remarks: The app or metadata includes information about third-party platforms that may not be relevant for App Store users, who are focused on experiences offered by the app itself (I wrote that app communication works both for iOS and Android.) The app declares support for audio in the UIBackgroundModes key in your Info.plist but we are unable to locate any features that require persistent audio. EULA (End User License Agreement) is missing for in-app purchases. After the rejection the app is no longer receiving these notifications. They are there, since the app receives them, when I open app, or significant location change is detected. It also works, when I run the app directly from Xcode (in debug mode), not from TestFlight nor in Sandbox. It seem to me like Apple somehow spoiled my background capabilities on purpose or accidentally. Is it possible? What can I do with it? Is it the case that I should just fix the review remarks and send the app back to review, and once the app passes it, it will work again? Or should I not count on it? Any suggestions? I asked Apple using: https://developer.apple.com/contact/topic/#!/topic/select but so far no response.

@App Store Commerce Engineer hi, have you already implement something for handle server notification if user buy non consumable purchases product, how my server should know if user boutght something ?

hello, i'm not able to activate Live activities from app id configuration. Do i miss something ? thanks for your help

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.

I have a database in CloudKit, where the host share (using CKShare) a record to participants. The record is in her private database, but for the participants is in their shared database. How do I send push notifications to everyone when a new child record is created?

Dear Apple Engineer, We have problem in the banking application after update iOS to 18, 18.1 or 18.1.1. No notifications appear on the locked screen, even in the notification center. On lower version push notifications apparently correctly. What have we checked so far is: certificates profiles app with push notifications extension and without it usage of setBadgeCount(_:withCompletionHandler:) instead of applicationIconBadgeNumber Our sample payload with encrypted data: { "aps":{ "alert":"Message from Bank", "badge":0, "sound":"default", "mutable-content":1, "category":"" }, "Type":"", "MessageId":"", "Id":"8ebf0c13-83cf-4029-ac13-91d026c3770a", "Media-url":"", "alternativeTitle":"New message", "priority":5, "EncryptedData":"eyJ0eXAiOiJibTplbmMtdjEiLCJhbGciOiJibTppb3MtZWNkaCIsImVuYyI6ImJtOkExMjhHQ00tSVYxNiIsImVuY19raWQiOiI5OUIyN0E4NC1CQzRFLTRGMzQtQjBGNC0yMTcyMEYxQTFEN0EifQ...BDdxycY-ZWPC7BgI_07efVSgjKyGyGVKlcNtZSslWJePrwJkJyIxFBr07XtayB0I2jv6Vc8AdUpdvMJ-daVzkPYMZ7pQA_X0Pg8RPRS2GnPkhyhK3XNkLRMsjG6CkSafYaqSeLMEpdF2Q-QkajvO3ojnRl1C-Bp9FpNbeaCwJXwqjEMKKhggRsKH8zdk7XcYhZX5_hARbBkIFLrCX1Xzyypp_PfZ23v9Pbd8aHmAf7FQdYN6xbfyoL5XEaDrCjGi-up2n1nlcTeEfkXHBunitUzQulmrjo86GJS0ldhF0mEMZ3_t6ObbjeKijYExMeYHxeCe89Yg10TvZI6kP4xizpJijG9cz75X3VI3I4SgeR8BuZRcb5eTQKWWzGW7u6LD1QtV3PWFCtv942CSz62kPPo-dD0248Fqm5HwxZejQSrZKjYQQ87dkzB0q7p2Q_M0z2Y-bRfNRXJl8VaF5X6-2KwLq47zwrQYUIcEHdag3J05X0SzBiImAdbh2zQz074QqEEpoU1F6C89LHKFxAw", "IsSigned":false } What do you need to analyze the problem?

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. If I unplug CarPlay, the same push plays the default sound and shows a normal banner on the lock screen, so the payload itself looks valid.

We are attempting to update our app to use the PTT framework, as it has been made clear that this will be required in a future iOS version as opposed to using the Unrestricted VoIP entitlement we are using for several features of our app. However, the behavior of this framework poses some problems with implementing our app's functionality: It is not possible to programmatically join a channel when the app is not in the foreground. This hinders our ability to implement the Automatically activate radio stream feature of our app, which allows users who have opted into this feature to immediately begin hearing live PTT audio from their agency following an incident alert. Having the app constantly "joined to a channel" and using the restoration delegate could potentially work, however this is not ideal as this would result in the PTT UI needing to be displayed at all times, even when no radio stream is activated. We have a "Text to Speech" option that, when enabled, reads out the content of an incident alert after the alert sound has played. This currently happens by triggering an AVSpeechSynthesizer in the PushKit incoming push callback. It may be possible to render TTS audio on the fly in a Notification Service Extension and assign it as the notification's sound, if that is possible this is less of a problem. We also use the PushKit callback to, again if the user has enabled it, activate a "Shake to Respond" feature, allowing a short period of time after receiving an incident alert in which the user can shake their device to indicate that they are responding to the incident. There does not appear to be any way to have the level of background execution required to implement this using an NSE, and this is of course beyond the scope of the PTT framework. What options do we have to be able to continue to provide this functionality, without risk of it being disabled in a future iOS version?

Dear Apple Developer Support, I am currently developing an iOS application that uses push notifications with custom .caf audio and a Notification Service Extension. I have implemented the extension to download and play a dynamic sound file from a remote sound_url. It works well when the app is in the foreground or background. However, when the app is force-closed (swiped up from multitasking), the Notification Service Extension does not seem to run. As a result, the custom sound is not downloaded or played. I would like to confirm: Is it possible to trigger the Notification Service Extension when the app is killed? If not, what is the correct way to play a custom .caf sound when the app is terminated? Should I preload and save the .caf file in App Group storage and reference it by name in the sound field? Are there any best practices or limitations regarding push notification customization when the app is killed? I appreciate your help in clarifying this issue. Thank you very much! Best regards, Phan Van Tung

I'm observing that when a silent push notification is sent to our app, is is started up in the background for 30 seconds before being suspended until the app is launched by the user. This causes data to persist from the silent push notification to the user app launch. I couldn't find documentation on this behavior for silent push notifications, and was wondering if it's possible to have the app terminate after handling the silent push notification. Is there documentation on the general flow of silent push notifications as well? I'm able to handle the edge cases if the app has to be suspended until user launch, but just want to confirm that this is the expected behavior before I go about handling it this way.

I am working with Notification Content Extensions and need to ensure that the content fits within the notification without scrolling. I want to know if there is any API that can provide the maximum available height for the notification content area. My goal is to avoid making the content scrollable inside the notification. Is there a way to dynamically retrieve the height of the notification space, so I can properly adjust the content layout and ensure it fits perfectly without requiring the user to scroll?

In the new update of macOS 26 Tahoe, I have noticed that on my MacBook Air M3, I am not getting a warning when my battery is low or when it's about to go to sleep. My MacBook is just turning off without warning.

Anne has two phone numbers, work and personal. Beth saved both phone numbers for Anne under one contact profile. When Beth sends a text to Anne's work phone, it is received on Anne's personal phone instead. We have verified only one phone number is set up under Messages settings, signed out of messages, restarted the phones. Any other fixes or suggestions?

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

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.
