I have found a way in which push notification works if we use standard objects of salesforce but I want to send push notification to custom objects.
I have two apps and want to send push notification from one app's custom object to another app's custom object.
Please help if there is a way to acheive this.
We have to use third party service like firebase or pushwoosh for this. Standard push notification will not work of salesforce.

In my aplication I have 2 types of notifications and the user has the option to disable or enable each one inside the app. For example if the user wants to receive only the type1 notification, he will go to the settings and he will disable there, but he will receive notifications of type2. I saw in Spotify and the user is able to disable notifications by type.
My problem is that, from what I read here and here I'm only able to do it server side. I can't do it on client side is that correct?
The unregisterPushNotifications disables everything. So in my server I would have a "flag" to send it or not.
If I use FCM (Firebase) will I be able to disable notifications by type or will I have to make the same thing as if I user APNs?
Take a look at the service you are using to send push notifications, many will include the concept of "channels" or "groups" that your users can subscribe to. But, yes, this is managed on the server side, not through the push notification registration.
For those who wonder how I managed to do it.
The alternative I found was using APNs to send silent notifications and when I receive a notification, I create a Local Notification.
I receive the silent notification, it triggers the method in AppDelegate and I read the data of the notification. If it is the type I want it to show up, I create a local notification and make it show up in the system. It was the best solution I found.
I'm using Sinch for instant messaging in iOS application. I properly receive push notifications that indicates sender of the message. How can I also add part of message body to notifications?
With managed push you can, if you want to add that you need to roll your own push solution that the sdk supports as well. https://www.sinch.com/docs/instant-message/android/#pushnotifications
I'm developing new iOS app using Parse.com, which uses to chat between two users. What is my problem is, when User A sends message to User B, it will store in Parse.com custom class object. But I want to know, how the Parse.com let to know the User B about he received message from User A. We can fetch from User B app with some frequent time. But this is not feasible way.
So, Is there any option that parse.com will send message to specific user who received message recently? I don't want to user Push notification for this, because push notification is different concept and also not reliable.
Thanks,
Vijay.
What you are asking for is exactly what Push Notifications are for. Your only other option is polling for changes.
If you find Push Notifications unreliable you would need to implement a combination of push + polling.
There are some other technologies out there, but they're not options with Parse without a lot of middle-ware.
I want to implement Push text message service inside the iOS MDM server, I don't want to store message, I want to show it on the screen only. Can anyone tell me how to implement this or provide the some references or tutorials to implement this functionality. I am not getting any clue. Any help will be appreciated ...
a) It has nothing to do with MDM.
b) It's called Push notification which is standalone functionality and can be used with or without MDM.
You will find here a nice Tutorial of Push Chat using push notification

i have an app and i'm thinking about implementing push notifications in it. however, i want to use remote notifications. i've tried Parse's push notification service and it's great and works well. You can type any text you want to inform your users about and just press send in order to be delivered to all your App users. On the other hand, i don't know if Apple has any such service that can facilitate the process of sending remote notifications. so which is better to stick to, Apple or Parse? and can i have the same service as Parse from Apple?
Yes, you can get the same services as Parse. You have to build your own server that will talk with Apple APNS. Just for example sending a push notification from your own server without using parse is here.
I didn't understand what are you trying to ask.
You can use Apple push notification service for sending remote content. With Any content related to your App.
Check RemoteNotifications for details. Parse is also using the Apple's push notification service.
