How can I create iOS push notifications that don’t vibrate?

Question

I know how to create silent push notifications (with playing a sound file that is silent). I would also like to send a push notification that doesn\'t vibrate phone.

Answer 1

I did it this way: server send a push to device with sound file name which is silent. That's it.

Example:

Incomming payload from server:

{ aps = { "content-available" = 1; sound="silence.mp3" }; data-id = 1234; }

And device handle it in AppDelegate:

- (void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo fetchCompletionHandler:(void (^)(UIBackgroundFetchResult))completionHandler {
    NSInteger data_id= [userInfo[@"data-id"] integerValue];
    NSLog(@"Data-id: %i", data_id);
    //
    //  code...
    //
    // UIBackgroundFetchResultNoData/UIBackgroundFetchResultFailed/UIBackgroundFetchResultNewData
    completionHandler(UIBackgroundFetchResultNewData);
}
