My team and I developed an android and iOS social App and we are using firebase for push notification. On iOS when the notification is turned off in the app, we are still getting the notification ring. For example, we are getting the message from other users. However, on Android, it seems to be working fine.

I’m having a lot of difficulties in implementing notifications in IOS.
With the app opened I can receive the notification from "https://exp.host/--/api/v2/push/send 1". However, I can’t receive the notification when the app is closed.
In app.json, I already added the “remote-notifications”.
On android it works perfectly.
Can anyone help me how should I implement notifications in IOS, please?
Thanks.
I have implemented push notification in my iOS App using Firebase SDK and I am successfully getting push notifications from Firebase console as well as from server.
But on many occasions, I wait and wait, and even send 5-6 notifications from Firebase console but not received on App. I tried to change network (both Mobile data & WiFi) but still not receiving. After waiting for an hour and more, suddenly it starts working (I am not re-installing App).
What may be the reason? If network is an issue, then why is it not woking though I change my network to WiFi having good bandwidth?
Over the last few months, we have been integrating Firebase Cloud Messaging into our project. The project uses the Firebase SDK, wrapped in a Cordova plug-in (cordova-plugin-firebase).
It is all working great, that is for Android at least. For iOS it is partially working. We received a few complaints from customers about them not receiving notifications, while all of the other iOS devices were correctly receiving messages.
After on-site device checking, we found out:
The device successfully obtained a FCM-token.
This FCM-token was subscribed to all the correct topics.
This FCM-token had the latest app version.
Both individual push-notifications (to the device), as well as topic notifications were not received
Messages from the Firebase Cloud Console were not received either
sometimes reinstalling the app worked
Receiving over Cellar/WiFi did not change anything
Permission was granted to receive push notifications
It is very hard to debug an issue like this, because installing a development version fixes it for some reason.
What are possible reasons for Firebase to not deliver the message to iOS? Or is it possible to see whether a delivery to APNS fails within the Firebase Console?
I struggle to find a solution how can I send web push notification to iOS devices? For Android there is no problem I use service worker and GCM.
But I found service worker for iOS push notifications is under construction.Is there a way for iOS devices?
If by web application you consider an app that opens in Safari the answer is: you can't send web notifications to iOS. Documentation:
Notifications for websites do not appear on iOS
If your web application is a native app with web view in it for content loading then you'll have to use native push notifications.
Is there a way for iOS devices?
It's not possible at the moment and there isn't any workaround for websites.
You need to create a native or hybrid app for iOS if you want push notifications.

Today I published my first app to the iOS App Store (hooray!).
When I tested the app, push notifications worked perfectly fine (using pushbots). But after downloading the app from the App Store, I did not receive any push notifications anymore.
I'm hoping someone here knows what might be the cause of this problem.
