Handling Push Notifications when App is Terminated

Question

When my App is not running and receives a Push Notification, if I click on that notification, the App is launched - but then it doesn\'t prompt the user with the Alert-View

Answer 1

The app does not process push notification in the background, what it really does the OS is wake up the app once you press in the notification. You can catch this moment in the following way:

    - (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
    { 

        if ([launchOptions objectForKey:UIApplicationLaunchOptionsRemoteNotificationKey]) {
      // Your app has been awoken by a notification...
        }
   }
