I'm using Quickblox for chat and push notifications and I would like to let the users turn on/off push sounds from my app. (which means that the notifications should be silent)
Is there a way to set sounds off from arriving push notifications with Quickblox?
If you use Chat 2.0 (automatic push notifications for offline user.), you can set sounds off in Alerts tab, in Admin panel http://quickblox.com/developers/Chat#Alerts
If you send push notifications from application code - you can manage push payload by yourself

Is there any way to handle remote notification payloads before they’re delivered and display in notification centre?
With push notifications of default type there is no way to filter out notifications if the app is not in foreground.
The possible solution to this is to use VoIP push notifications in conjunction with PushKit.
VoIP pushes are always waking up the application, however they are not presented to the user and don't modify app badge value, so it's up to the developer to show a local notification upon the received VoIP push and to deal with app badge.
There is a technique with additional silent push that for example Facebook is using, to delete notification on iOS device when the message has been read on desktop web site. It's described here: https://www.pushwoosh.com/docs/deletable-ios-push
It's possible to track my app push notification in iOS?.
Something like google analytics for push notification.
I want to know the users who receive the notifications and the users who have disabled my app push notification. It's possible?

Is it possible to send a message, having save_to_history enabled (true) and would not come as a push notification (even if push enabled).
Currently it is possible to modify the push notification template starting from the plan "Advanced". You can check full comparison of the plans here
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.
