Is it possible to send a push notification to my users without entering the notification center? I want to display a popup that will die after confirm or cancel.
I know it was possible in ios 4 and was replaced by the Notification Center but I have to ask to be sure.
There is no way for you as a developer. This can be set in Settings for each application:

Is there a way to prevent a remote notification in the Notification Center from being removed by the OS after it is tapped by the user? The tap invokes the app and didReceiveNotificationResponse() is called. I am not using badges in the notifications.
Apple is not allowing to persist the notification once after you open it.
What’s next
You can create a local notification from data you get from push notification when user taps on it. I have not tried the implementation but it should work in your usecase.
User will not be knowing whether it is local or push notification.
I have my application developed on iOS 8 . I have implemented push notification in my application. In iOS 8 clicking on notification automatically clears that particular notification. But my requirement is notification should stay until clear manually. Please give suggestion how to achieve this.
This is a system behavior. You can not prevent this to happen.
If you need something to be always visible from the notification center, consider to create a Notification Center Widget.
I implement the APNS in my app . i want to show commoning notification only in notification center (at top only).
when my app is in background the notification is shows in notification center nicely. My problem is that when my app is in active (open).
Notivication is not show in notification center . how ever i didReicievedremove ... is called . i dont want to show any alert view my self . i just show notivication only in notification center .
Thanks
Apple really wants you to handle notifications yourself when your application is running. That's why you receive the notification within your application.
This way you can also handle it in the style of the application, without the popups from iOS itself.
Sorry, so the answer is: no you can't.
According Apple Push notification guidelines.
If a notification for an application arrives when that application is not running, the device alerts the user that the application has data waiting for it.
I use a phone gap plugin and xcode 5.
Lets see the example of the problem:
The application is in background or closed.
I send the notification.
User sees the notification pop up, without clicking on it.
I send another notification.
If user open notification bar it will see two notification actually i want
to delete the previous some how and present to user only the second notification.
The eqvivalent in java is NotificationManage.cancelAll();
For now each/all notification i send are shown when user open notifications bar.
Any help appreciated.
You have (the app has) no control over that.
The user controls how many notifications they see in notification center. Notifications can be removed by the user and will be removed when acted upon (the app is opened from the notification).
You can do this by [UIApplication sharedApplication].applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0;
in the method didReceiveRemoteNotification. In this way notification center will be cleared.
Currently I have an application that receives remote APN. I know that you can cancel specific or all local notifications. However, is there any way to control how many entries in the Notification Center? (Notification Center being the pull-down menu)
Thank you!
The user can control the number of notifications that can show up in Notification Center for each app, in Settings/Notifications.
As a developer, the only way you can control the number of notifications that show up in Notification Center is by controlling the number of notifications you send.
