What's the most appropriate way to detect if a socket has been dropped or not? Or whether a packet did actually get sent? I have a library for sending Apple Push Notifications to iPhones through the Apple gatways ( available on GitHub ). Clients need to open a socket and send a binary representation of each message; but unfortunately Apple doesn't return any acknowledgement whatsoever. The connection can be reused to send multiple messages as well. I'm using the simple Java Socket connections. The relevant code is: Socket socket = socket(); // returns an reused open socket, or a new one socket

Until now I used development push certificate and the push notifications worked great. Now I want to submit my app to Apple so I created a production certificate and set it under "code signing identity" -> "Release" I also placed the .p12 file in my production server. But the push now does not work. Is it suppose to work when I run from xcode? or will it just work when downloading the app from App Store? If so how can I test it? FrediWeber The production push will work when you download the app from the App Store. UPDATE: You can also test the production push with an AdHoc build of the app;

I developed local Notifications in iOS 10 . It is working perfectly. But now how should i code local notifications and push notification if user is using iOS 9 and above versions. Can anyone help please? Below is code in iOS 10 import UIKit import UserNotifications @available(iOS 10.0, *) class ViewController: UIViewController,UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() if #available(iOS 10.0, *) { //Seeking permission of the user to display app notifications UNUserNotificationCenter.current().requestAuthorization(options: [.alert,.sound,.badge],

How do device tokens vary from sandbox to production modes? I think I have locked up some device tokens into a production mode, and they can't be pushed to from development. Any ideas on how I can check? When you build your app using a development cert, the app will generate a unique device token. This device token will not work on the production push network. When you then build your app with a distribution provisioning profile (App Store or Ad-Hoc) your device will generate a different device token for push notifications. If you try to send the development generated token to the production

I am building an app that is heavily relies on APN. Upon the very first start of my app, iOS asks if this app is allowed to use APN (as a result of registerForRemoteNotificationTypes: call). However once dismissed, this dialog is never popping up back. I have to manually go to Settings->Notifications->MyApp to enable/disable things there. So is there a way to avoid this hustle and actually experience what user will experience upon the very first start every time I start my app in debug mode? Eran Here's how Apple say you can do it: Resetting the Push Notifications Permissions Alert on iOS The

Similar to this question: How do I access remote push notification data on applicationDidBecomeActive? But the different is how can you access the notification data when you are in applicationDidBecomeActive and if you have clicked on the app icon instead of the push notification. The flow is: If you click on the push notification then didReceiveRemoteNotification will be triggered, but if you click on the original app icon, only applicationDidBecomeActive will be triggered and didReceiveRemoteNotification will not be called. I am looking for the later case so how can I access the push

I have something fairly simple I want to do. I attach a custom piece of data to some push notifications that I handle in -(BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions I look for the UIApplicationLaunchOptionsRemoteNotificationKey and hey presto there it is. That method only gets called if my app is being launched for the first time. How do I read that same key if my application is running in the background already when the notification comes in and the user pressed the 'View' button on the notification? I want to send them to a
