Hi! I hope someone can help me out there. I have updated my code in order to get push notification for iOS8. Everything works fine on iOS8 device, however it seems the push notification does not work anymore on iOS7 device. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks for helping out!
Use this code
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(registerUserNotificationSettings:)]) {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings:[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:UIUserNotificationTypeBadge|UIUserNotificationTypeAlert|UIUserNotificationTypeSound categories:nil]];
} else {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert|UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge|UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound];
}
#ifdef __IPHONE_8_0
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings:(UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings {
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
#endif
And other push related Methods.. this will work in both ios..
Hope this will help you.

How can I get the Device Token for remote notification in iOS 8?
I used the method didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken in AppDelegate in iOS < 8, and it returned the device token. But in iOS 8, it does not.
Read the code in UIApplication.h.
You will know how to do that.
First:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
add Code like this
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(registerUserNotificationSettings:)]) {
#ifdef __IPHONE_8_0
UIUserNotificationSettings *settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeAlert
| UIUserNotificationTypeBadge
| UIUserNotificationTypeSound) categories:nil];
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:settings];
#endif
} else {
UIRemoteNotificationType myTypes = UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound;
[application registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:myTypes];
}
if you not using both Xcode 5 and Xcode 6 ,try this code
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(registerUserNotificationSettings:)]) {
UIUserNotificationSettings *settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge
|UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound
|UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert) categories:nil];
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:settings];
} else {
UIRemoteNotificationType myTypes = UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound;
[application registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:myTypes];
}
(Thanks for #zeiteisen #dmur 's remind)
Second:
Add this Function
#ifdef __IPHONE_8_0
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings:(UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings
{
//register to receive notifications
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application handleActionWithIdentifier:(NSString *)identifier forRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo completionHandler:(void(^)())completionHandler
{
//handle the actions
if ([identifier isEqualToString:#"declineAction"]){
}
else if ([identifier isEqualToString:#"answerAction"]){
}
}
#endif
And your can get the deviceToken in
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData *)deviceToken
if it still not work , use this function and NSLog the error
-(void)application:(UIApplication *)application didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:(NSError *)error
The way to register for iOS 8 and keep supporting older versions
UIApplication *application = [UIApplication sharedApplication];
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(registerUserNotificationSettings:)]) {
UIUserNotificationSettings *settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeBadge
|UIUserNotificationTypeSound
|UIUserNotificationTypeAlert) categories:nil];
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:settings];
} else {
UIRemoteNotificationType myTypes = UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound;
[application registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:myTypes];
}
and in the app delegate add
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings:(UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings {
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
iOS8 can receive silent notificaions without asking for permission. Call
- (void)registerForRemoteNotifications. After this application:didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken: will be called
Note: the callback with the token is only called if the application has successfully registered for user notifications with the function below or if Background App Refresh is enabled.
Check the Settings for you app if any notification type is enabled. If not, you will not get a device token.
You are now able to obtain silent notifications with
aps {
content-available: 1
}
in the notification payload
But notifications that appear still needs permission. Call
UIUserNotificationType types = UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeBadge | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert;
UIUserNotificationSettings *notificationSettings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:types categories:nil];
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:notificationSettings];
This code should ask for permission.
You should now be ready to get push notifications
In my case I had made the necessary updates to request push notification access for iOS 7 and iOS 8, however I had not implemented the new callback for when an iOS 8 user grants access. I needed to add this method to my app delegate.
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings:(UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings {
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
If you are using Xamarin.iOS to build your mobile application, you can use this snippet of code to request push notification registration
if (UIDevice.CurrentDevice.CheckSystemVersion(8,0))
{
UIUserNotificationType userNotificationTypes = UIUserNotificationType.Alert | UIUserNotificationType.Badge | UIUserNotificationType.Sound;
UIUserNotificationSettings settings = UIUserNotificationSettings.GetSettingsForTypes(userNotificationTypes, null);
UIApplication.SharedApplication.RegisterUserNotificationSettings(settings);
}
else
{
UIRemoteNotificationType notificationTypes = UIRemoteNotificationType.Alert | UIRemoteNotificationType.Badge | UIRemoteNotificationType.Sound;
UIApplication.SharedApplication.RegisterForRemoteNotificationTypes(notificationTypes);
}
Also you will need to override DidRegisterUserNotificationSettings method to get the device token returned from the APNS server:
public override void DidRegisterUserNotificationSettings(UIApplication application, UIUserNotificationSettings notificationSettings)
{
application.RegisterForRemoteNotifications();
}
The answer of Madao (https://stackoverflow.com/a/24488562/859742) is right but....
UIUserNotificationSettings *settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge
should be more "correct"
UIUserNotificationSettings *settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeBadge | UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert) categories:nil];
Those flags have the same bit mask values and thats why both would work but UIUserNotificationSettings requires UIUserNotificationType not UIRemoteNotificationType.
Apart from that I would call
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:settings];
In the AppDelegate method (depending on the granted rights),
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings:(UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings
I thing the better way to keep backward compatibility we can go with this approach, it is working for my case hope work for you. Also pretty easy to understand.
if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] >= 8.0)
{
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings:[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert | UIUserNotificationTypeBadge) categories:nil]];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
else
{
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
(UIUserNotificationTypeBadge | UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert)];
}
UIUserNotificationType types = UIUserNotificationTypeBadge |
UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert;
UIUserNotificationSettings *mySettings =
[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:types categories:nil];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings:mySettings];
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
Can you tell me the Difference between Push notification in IOS 7 and IOS 8, What is the new methods in IOS 8.
If you want to work for push notification in iOS 6,7,8 in all cases then use the following code snippet inside the didFinishLaunchingWithOptions
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(isRegisteredForRemoteNotifications)])
{
// iOS 8 Notifications
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert | UIUserNotificationTypeBadge) categories:nil]];
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
else
{
// iOS < 8 Notifications
[application registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
(UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound)];
}
Add this on .m file:
#define IS_OS_8_OR_LATER ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] >= 8.0)
Then in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions function:
if(IS_IOS_8_OR_LATER) {
UIUserNotificationSettings *settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes: (UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge|UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound|UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert) categories:nil];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings:settings];
} else {
//register to receive notifications
UIRemoteNotificationType myTypes = UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound;
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:myTypes];
}
And now only for iOS 8:
#ifdef __IPHONE_8_0
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings: (UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings
{
//register to receive notifications
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application handleActionWithIdentifier:(NSString *)identifier forRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo completionHandler:(void(^)())completionHandler
{
//handle the actions
if ([identifier isEqualToString:#"declineAction"]){
}
else if ([identifier isEqualToString:#"answerAction"]){
}
}
#endif
And then the delegate methods.

Hope this helps!!!

My app crash when i run on iOS7 device !
So i tried :
#if __IPHONE_OS_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= __IPHONE_8_0
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(registerUserNotificationSettings:)]) {
UIUserNotificationSettings* notificationSettings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:UIUserNotificationTypeAlert | UIUserNotificationTypeBadge | UIUserNotificationTypeSound categories:nil];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings:notificationSettings];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotifications];
} else {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes: (UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert)];
}
#else
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes: (UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert )];
#endif
iOS 8 Device is correct but iOS 7 Device the push notification no working :(
any ideas?
Note:
I have the code of another app i used:
[application registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge|
UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert|
UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound];
but now is not working
I'm using this code for a current app of iOS 7 and it is working fine.
In ApplicationDidFinishLaunchingWithOptions write the same as you have written before.
[application registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge |
UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert |
UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound];
Don't forget to add this to your AppDelegate
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings:(UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings {
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
It is hard to know what you're missing in the code without the log message however my guess is that you didn't register user for notification settings. Cheers!
I'm trying to check if PushNotifications for my app are enabled.
In AppDelegate.m I do register app for remote notifications, and in Settings on iPhone (iOS 8) Push Notifications for this app are enabled.
I've googled to methods:
UIRemoteNotificationType types = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] enabledRemoteNotificationTypes];
BOOL check = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] isRegisteredForRemoteNotifications];
As the result, types = UIRemoteNotificationTypeNone and check = NO.
I'm using this code sample to register application for Push Notifications:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary*)launchOptions
{
//-- Set Notification
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(isRegisteredForRemoteNotifications)])
{
// iOS 8 Notifications
[application registerUserNotificationSettings:[UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIUserNotificationTypeSound | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert | UIUserNotificationTypeBadge) categories:nil]];
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
else
{
// iOS < 8 Notifications
[application registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
(UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound)];
}
//--- your custom code
return YES;
}
What is the problem here?
I think you've already found a solution but just in case: in iOS 8, enabledRemoteNoficationTypes is deprecated you should use:
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] respondsToSelector:#selector(currentUserNotificationSettings)]) {
UIUserNotificationSettings *currentSettings = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] currentUserNotificationSettings];
if (currentSettings.types == UIUserNotificationTypeNone) {}
Best
Try checking your state with this code:
UIRemoteNotificationType allOnType = UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge ;
UIRemoteNotificationType offType = UIRemoteNotificationTypeNone ;
UIRemoteNotificationType currentTypes = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] enabledRemoteNotificationTypes];
if (currentTypes == allOnType) {
// all are on
} else if (currentTypes == offType) {
// all are off
} else {
// some are on, some are off
}
Edit
Also, try implementing the Push Notification Callbacks:
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData *)deviceToken
{
NSLog(#"Token%#",deviceToken);
}
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:(NSError *)err
{
NSLog(#"err:%#",err);
}
-(void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings:(UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings
{
//for iOS8
}
I have my application signed using enterprise certificate which supports push notification feature in it. It was working fine and when I updated iphone to iOS 8 push notification stopped working. After I debug and little research I came to know that following code to be added to retrieve push token from iOS 8 onwards.
if ([application respondsToSelector:#selector(registerUserNotificationSettings:)]) //>iOS8
{
UIUserNotificationSettings *settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes:(UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert) categories:nil];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings:settings];
}else {// <iOS8
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:(UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge | UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound | UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert)];
}
Add following callback methods,
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didRegisterUserNotificationSettings:(UIUserNotificationSettings *)notificationSettings
{
[application registerForRemoteNotifications];
}
- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application handleActionWithIdentifier:(NSString *)identifier forRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo completionHandler:(void(^)())completionHandler
{
//handle the actions
}
However we do not face this problem with appstore version of our application and all working good. Is it something broken on enterprise certification only?
You are forgeting a line code: [[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotifications];
something like this:
if ([application respondsToSelector: selector (registerUserNotificationSettings :)]) {
UIUserNotificationSettings * settings = [UIUserNotificationSettings settingsForTypes: UIUserNotificationTypeBadge | UIUserNotificationTypeAlert | UIUserNotificationTypeSound
categories: nil ];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerUserNotificationSettings: settings];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotifications];
} else {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotificationTypes:
UIRemoteNotificationTypeBadge |
UIRemoteNotificationTypeAlert |
UIRemoteNotificationTypeSound];
}
