I've got an app with several app extensions (call extension, action extension, notification service extension, message filtering extension, notification content extension). If I need to interactively debug these then I can select the scheme and run the extension within Xcode for all of them except for the notification content extension, with that I get an error dialog summary saying: Failed to install the app on the device / The provided item to be installed is not of a type that CoreDevice recognizes. Which when expanded has the blumpf posted below. Why can I not run the notification content extension, when I can run any other type of app extension? Failed to install the app on the device. Domain: com.apple.dt.CoreDeviceError Code: 3002 Failure Reason: The provided item to be installed is not of a type that CoreDevice recognizes.

According to the Apple notification alert received in October 2024, the APNS server certificate update for production is scheduled for February 24, 2025. Has this change been implemented, or is there a platform or method to verify whether this update has been applied in production? If so, where can we check this?"

I have been watching the following moment from wwdc (Design dynamic Live Activities): https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10194/?time=728 It suggest that you should 'tick' between multiple live activities of your app: When you want to show multiple sessions for your app going on at once, consider ticking between the display of them to continue to give users an eye on everything that’s going on. How can I tick between them? More specifically how can I do that when my app is in the background?

Hi, We recently updated our app icon, but the push notification icon has not been updated on some devices. It still shows the old icon on: • iPhone 16 Pro — iOS 26 • iPhone 14 — iOS 26 • iPad Pro 11” (M4) — iOS 18.6.2 • iPhone 16 Plus — iOS 18.5 After restarting these devices, the push notification icon is refreshed and displays the new version correctly. Could you advise how we can ensure the push notification icon updates properly on all affected devices without requiring users to restart? Thank you.

iOS has a feature that suppresses or limits the display of push notifications when multiple notifications are sent in quick succession (often referred to as rate limiting or filtering). Specifically, how many notifications within what timeframe might trigger such suppression?

Dear Team, Hope You are dong good! Problem Description:- We are facing a huge delay in receiving IOS Push notifications on concerned devices. Found System.Timeout.Exception Error in IOS Logs(Screenshot & Recent Logs attached) Found a network delay between service installed servers & APNS(Apple Push Notification Service) Destination URL & Ports using in Push Notification service:- api.push.apple.com api.development.push.apple.com Destination Port-443 Also Found the error(TCP reset From server) between source(service installed server) & Destination (Apple Push Notification Service)-Screenshot attached Please have a look around the above  points & requesting advice regarding the below:- How to resolve this delay in reaching IOS push Notifications in concerned devices? Should we call more URL’s from services? If yes please provide URL’s/Ports to be opened from services ? Awaiting your Replies, Thanks,

After upgrading my latest M4 MacBook Pro to macOS 15.2, and even after connecting my iPhone with iPhone Mirroring, there is no 'Allow notification from iPhone' switch option in the macOS notification settings menu, which prevents me from displaying push notifications from my iPhone on macOS.

I got a notification that the Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service (APNs) is changing. Does this affect the push service for Apple Wallet passes or just for apps? I have a push service for Apple Wallet passes but no service for apps. I don't use push notification service for anything other than for Apple Wallet Pass push notifications, not at all for apps. Is there anything I need to do or is this not relevant to my situation? If it does, what do I need to change in order to make sure my service still works? Do I just replace the certificate? Is there a standard path where it would live on the server? I'm sure this is a simple thing, but it's been over a decade since I wrote the push service so I'm pretty rusty.

We are struggling with the lack of information provided by Apple re: Apple Push Notification service server certificate update We want help from other developers on HOW TO: make sure that both old and new server certificates are included in the Trust Store Exactly HOW is this done? What is the Trust store and how is it accessed? Is this done for our account once OR for each for the apps utilising APNs? Can anyone assist? Thanks Louise

I downloaded the .crt file to take the following steps. Could you please give me a guide on how to actually apply the file to the server? Upload only files to a specific path on the Linux server. keytool -import -alias cacert -file ca.crt -keystore client.truststore.jks Is it possible to just apply it with the above command? Please confirm. thank you

Hi team, I am developing VOIP feature using PushKit and CallKit but CallKit is not show when app in background or terminate state, now in foreground state I can call reportNewIncomingCall from pushRegistry-didReceiveIncomingPushWith and it's work as expected but the problem is in background or terminate state it's not my setup: PushKit is configured In Signing & Capabilities I add background modes (Remote notifications and Voice over IP) In info.plist I add <key>UIBackgroundModes</key> <array> <string>voip</string> I'm not sure should I create new VOIP Certificate but now I can receive message notification normally. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated Thank you

Dear Apple Engineer Recently we found that our push delivery rate has decreased. On the website "https://icloud.developer.apple.com/dashboard/notifications/teams/43Y657P48S/app/com.taobao.fleamarket", we found that starting from January 8, 2025, "Discarded - Token Unregistered" showed an upward trend, from millions to tens of millions. We have not found the reason, and hope you can help us. Team ID: 43Y657P48S Bundle ID: com.taobao.fleamarket Here are some failed tokens, in "Device Token Validator" The query is valid, but the user cannot receive the message: 56025f656cc3aa701898037f59e8d0cb937263ff5585cd1cec9ae661dcc15b19 5fbbd1e604d3662d7583e9377676f8fa276005145278d6dea04b4fc85a7b070e f0970602551f8d249d8f97960a74006ad78688b52fec6b0d19a585 207caff62e 9388fb40209c100afc2db728342f6fe86c7e34787a8fe4a92b73d2503c5286e0 a2819a4708462588b07452ed827d9afb03c343b586e70dcb67a9981f76295704 8949373cd43783fa3e23d38d55ee1fd72475b39f9c2d2fedca3ecb925b094240 Best Regards!

The Apple subscription production environment receives notifications, but the same notification address successfully receives them only for sandbox payments.

I'm sending push notifications to a notification extension, and within the extension setting the threadIdentifier to be the same. But I'm observing inconsistent grouping behaviour, and behaviour that changes over time. The general iPhone settings are to display notifications as a Stack, and the app settings are to show on lock screen, notification center and banners and the notification grouping is set to by app (changing it to automatic doesn't affect the behaviour below). Pushes are displayed on the lock screen grouped together, then if the device is roused and the screen swiped down to reveal the notification center then they are still grouped. So far so good. If the iphone is active then the notifications appear at the top of the screen, one by one, but in this case if there is a swipe down to reveal the notification center then the notifications are not grouped when displayed, but shown individually. But then if one waits a few minutes and then displays the notification center for a 2nd time, sometimes now they will be grouped, but sometimes not. Why are they not (always) being displayed as grouped in the notification center?

We are facing an issue: push notifications are not being received. We are using the Marketing Cloud SDK for push notifications. On install, the app correctly registers for push notifications. We pass the required information to Marketing Cloud — for example, contact key, token, etc. Marketing Cloud also confirms that the configuration is set up, and we have tried sending push notifications with proper delivery settings. The issue is that after some time, the device gets automatically opted out in the Marketing Cloud portal. When we consulted their team, they said this is caused by the “DeviceTokenNotForTopic” error received from APNs. I have verified the certificates and bundle ID from my end — everything looks correct. Device: iPhone 15, iPhone 17 iOS: 18.7.2, 26.1

We are observing a significant increase in 410 "Unregistered/ExpiredToken" responses from APNs when sending push notifications after 20 July. According to documentation, this indicates that the device token is no longer valid for the specified topic. However, the sudden spike raises questions about whether there have been any recent updates or changes to APNs' token invalidation logic. Could you please confirm: Whether there have been any recent updates in APNs behavior related to 410 responses? If there are best practices or recommendations for handling large volumes of token invalidations in order to detect uninstallations?

An Application Group with Identifier 'group.com.aaa.aaa.onesignal' is not available. Please enter a different string. How can I Fix this error? I need to add it in this format.

Hey Together, I have seen that critical notifications need to be confirmed by apple to be used. Sadly I couldn't figure out where to ask for that. Context: I have a sports tournament app for Beach Handball. There are a couple of Courts like up to 20-25. The main use for that in my app would be to notify first aiders/Medics. Right now they are called in via Speakers or by the referees just writing that into a WhatsApp chat. As this takes a long time and the speakers can be deactivated due to rain, power shortage or even the medics sometimes are not in range to exactly hear the speakers calling them. To Speed up this process I want them to download the App, Register via an E-Mail or a One Time Code. Now if a referee needs immediate Help from the Medics on their court they can send the Critical alert to the Medics without having to write a chat into a WhatsApp group, to get a call through the speakers 10 minutes later which the medics may not even hear. A couple of weeks ago we had a player falling on her back/neck/head and they couldn't figure out if she broke her neck or not. Luckily the medics were right next to the court and saw that. but what would happen if they were a couple hundred of meters away and did not notice that? I mean the PA system was off due to a power shortage. someone trying to move her? Risking her death? And while we are at it we could add those notifications if a team is missing to a court for a game that already should've started. Critical because it is urgent. Those notifications are handled with care.

I invoked the getNotificationSettingsWithCompletionHandler method of UNUserNotificationCenter on multiple test devices. After dismissing the notification permission request dialog (without explicit denial), the returned UNNotificationSettings object showed inconsistent authorizationStatus values across OS versions: ​**iOS 18:​ Returns UNAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined ​iOS 14.2:**​ Returns UNAuthorizationStatusDenied Where can I find official Apple documentation explaining this behavioral discrepancy between system versions?

Hello, I received emails regarding the change to the Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service, however I missed the February 24th 2025 deadline. What should I do? Push notifications to apple devices is currently not working.
