Does anybody know a way to implement in app notifications?
For example like Facebook and Twitter have notifications in the app so if you receive a message or have been tagged you get a notification inside the app. Then when you click that notification it shows you a list of all the notifications you have received.
I hope the question makes sense.
Would appreciate any help. Thank You
Facebook & Twitter uses Push Notification to notify the users. You need to implement push notification for it.
If you have feature which is local to the app then you can implement Local Notification.
Reference link for both
I am using pushapps site for notifications. Easy to implement, easy to use. http://www.pushapps.mobi/

I am currently working on developing an app in swift 5, Xcode 11, and I am getting towards the end of the initial development. Right now, I am attempting to integrate Remote Push Notifications into the app. I have followed a lot of tutorials online and it works in the sense that I can send the remote notifications through the "Pusher" app, but this is only for testing purposes. I can't seem to find anything about how to actually trigger the notifications through the code, so that, for example, if a user were to receive a message in the app, they would get a push notification. I am not sure if I am just completely missing something, but if anyone can explain to me what exactly I am skimming over in simple terms, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
When we talk about "remote notifications", it means that we have a server that sends us these notifications. As I understand, you want to just show in-app banner that looks like notification. You have 2 options:
Follow these instructions and schedule notifications locally
Use some sort of third party library (e.g. SwiftEntryKit) to create customized in-app notifications.
I created an app which receives push notifications from my server. At the same time, if some other app is sending push notifications (for e.g., whatsaap, twitter), the notification is getting displayed when I'm using my app. I want to hide all other app's push notifications except my app's push notifications. Can this be done in iOS? I want my app to receive push notifications only from my server but not from the other apps.
Thanks in advance.
Try to think like your customer. Would they like to receive the push notifications of the other apps (whatsapp, twitter, the notification that a very important email just arrived)? Of course they would. Your App is one of many and most probably not the most important one they own.
Let me provide some background first.
Your app can only receive notifications from your service/server.
The user might have apps that are receiving notifications from the respective service/server.
e.g. if the user has FB app, then it would be receiving notification from FB servers.
In the end, you are only responsible for managing your service/server.
There is no way for you to block notifications that are received from other services from your app.
Hope this helps.
I have a web app which I need to send apple push notifications to. I was thinking if I set up a login screen specifically for the web view to point to, which included a request for the device UUID on post, for the purpose of apple push notifications. So can you ask the device for its UUID from a page being viewed in ui.webview?
There are a couple of things wrong with your question. Firstly apple deprecated the UDID, which was never used for push notifications anyway. You get a push token when you sign up for push notifications.
Secondly you can't send push notifications to a web app or a webpage running in an iOS app, you need to implement this in objective-c in an iOS app. There is no other way around it.
I suggest you read the apple docs / tutorials on this as there is a lot to learn. Heres the main overview: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/Introduction.html
Is there a way to show or list Apple push notifications on any user page?
It's pretty hard to find where is the alert message is received.
Here is the Xamarin doc for Remote Notifications: http://docs.xamarin.com/guides/cross-platform/application_fundamentals/notifications/ios/remote_notifications_in_ios/.
iOS handles the push notification for you, your app is only informed of a push notification if you app is running in the foreground or when the user clicks on the notification and you app is opened.
With the iOS SDK there is no way to get a list of notifications for you app, the best way to create this is by keep a list server side.
Have a look at MonoTouch.UIKit.UIApplicationDelegate.ReceivedRemoteNotification Method
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
