I want to naviagte the user to a particular view controller after clicking on the push notification in which I will be sending a route with the screen name of the view controllers from Firebase (through key-value). I'm not sure how to go about it and I'm supposed to write that piece of code.
It would be of great help if anyone could help me with that.

I am new to push notification concepts and understood the basics of push notifications. But, I am not getting to present or push a specific view controller when tapping on push notification. And the same time how to handle dependency presenting view controller(example: if required same data from the server along with notification data to present view controller, how to handle it)
And how to handle notification if the app is in the foreground, background, or closed scenarios.
Please help me, Thank you.
For example, I have a Notification that occurs when there is an "unauthorized" error returned from the api server that should bring the user back to the login screen. This event could appear anywhere in the program.
Do I create a new viewless controller to manage states and have it monitor for this notification and then present the login view controller?
I'm thinking about push notifications too, received by the app delegate. Some of these may cause the data model to get updated and then the screen to change. Who should make the screen change? In the past I put all this in the AppDelegate. But there must be a more elegant way!
I also found out about FlowControllers. But they don't play nicely with Interface Builder, at least according to this solution.
Please let me know if you need more specific information about my project.
I'm carrating on an app that was written by a programmer before me. It has only 2 view controllers: the main one displaying chat (its the root view controller) and a second one to tinker with your profile. I was asked to implement some kind of notification (preferably one that pops up at the top of the screen) to the user that a message has arrived when they are inside that profile-tinkering view controller. Must I use the APNS server technique, or can I use an easier technique by utilizing the App Delegate somehow?
Use APNS, I prefer the local notification,didReceiveLocalnotification method will get called,then display an alert
Use delegate,assign delegate to the profile controller,and implement the required method,when you have a message arrived,display an alert
When you are inside another view, the APNS wont get displayed because the application is already in foreground.
When app is in foreground and you receive an APNS, didReceiveRemoteNotification method will get called.
You can read APNS package here and notify user of this in a way you want, for e.g. you can display an alert.
I would like to implement a similar response system for push notifications throughout my app. When a remote notification appears and the application is in the active state I would like to place a button temporarily on the screen that performs the same action regardless of where it is in the app.
The only way I can think to do this is to create the same response to notification method in each of the app's many view controller.
Is there any way to do this in the app delegate, tab bar, or navigation bar so that the same response would apply to multiple views rather than placing the same function in each view controller separately?
Please advise and thanks
If I understood your question correctly: your problem is not related to notifications at all, but rather how to place a button on top of all views. A common way would be to add it as a subView to the window.

I am using push notifications in my app and I would like to send user to particular view, not the view he last saw. Is it possible?
You need to implement the appropriate AppDelegate messages.
Specifically, you will receive the APNS payload on the application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:
You might also receive the payload in a different message, application:didReceiveRemoteNotification: if the application is active.
Then when you know that your app was launched because the user touched a notification, you can direct him to a specific view accordingly.
I don't think that you have control over what the user sees while app is starting app (opening animation). After the app is fully active, you can send him wherever you want to by opening proper view controllers, setting proper tab, etc...
