How To Send Firebase Push Notification from one app to another app connect to same project
I have Used http to send notification to specific device using token but i am unable to send to another app
I have Two App with Same Firebase project
One is Admin And Other is client
I want to send push notification from client app to Admin is this possible if yes than how.
When you have two apps installed on a single device, each of them will have a different FCM token, regardless of whether they part of the same Firebase project. So you can send a message to a specific app by sending it to the token for that app.

I'm trying out the push notifications for flutter apps, so I was wondering, is using FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging) a must use for push notifications or not? Can I do this without FCM? NOTE:I tried using FCM and it works when the app is offline, in the background and foreground. I tried just the local push notifications with an alarm app and it only works while the app is in the background or foreground, not when the app is offline. I want to build a push notification system that sends data that works like this Some system -> My API -> My mobile App, can I work like that with a flutter app? Or do I need to go like this Some system -> My API -> FCM -> My mobile App. I know FCM is cross platform so is probably the best, but I just want to know my other options too.
Thanks in advance for your help and advice!
The OS shows push notifications, and it doesn't matter what kind of technology you're using to create the app. All you need is to get unique token and send it to the server, so it can send a notification to the phone. Thus, you need a service to do that for you. FCM is one of them. There are other options like OneSignal, Amazon AWS, Pusher and others.
I want to send notification to all user when application is release in appstore without using push notifcation.Is there any method I can notify to my users.
there is no way to send notification to alert user with out APNS or socket (backround running ). with out APNS, you can check only when the app is opening and call an apple API or your api for getting latest app version and then you can trigger a local notification .
Lets suppose some app developers use our SDK. Can we send push notifications to devices that use our SDK independently, without the help of hosted app?
I know that push is unique to every app , multiple push keys , settings can't be made.
But I just like to know if any other options are available.
Our goal is to send push for devices that use our SDK.
Thanks.
This is not possible using Apple Push Notifications. Sending an Apple Push Notification to an iOS Application requires a certificate that is unique for each application. You would need to receive the certificates from the developers of those apps.
In addition, the apps would have to register to APNS and send the device token to your server. This part can be done as part of your SDK, assuming the users of your SDK call some SDK method that performs the registration and sends the token.
We're planning an app which, among other things, is supposed to integrate a facebook chat.
We're discussing about the push notifications for receiving messages while the app's in background. What comes to mind is a proxy server for the chat, that'd actually connect to the facebook chat, and the iPhone app would connect to the proxy.
Then, it's easy to have the proxy server act as a push notification server.
Is this the only way to go, or are we making this more complex than it needs to be?
Any input is appreciated. Thanks.
To do push notification (App is closed, user receive a message and an alert appear on the iPhone), that's the only way, because every app need an unique certificate to send push notifications. This mean that official Facebook servers can't push for third-party applications. You need a proxy that keep a connection open to FB and push alerts to Apple's Push Notification Server when needed.
Inside the app, instead, you can connect directly by opening a socket to Facebook's servers and use a Jabber library for ObjC. This allows another approach: Local Notifications. They're similar to Push, but they doesn't need a proxy server: it's the application running on user's device that keep an open connection (even when the app is in background) with Chat Server.
This is the documentation that covers both type of notification: Local and Push Notification Programming Guide
Facebook's chat system is a Jabber server, so I think you are making it more complex than you need to.
This is a very basic question on push notifications.
I need to know whether an iPhone application can receive push notifications.
I want them to operate as follows.
User installs the application.
When the application is not running, the user notices that something has changed with the application.
This is indicated by the application icon changing.
User opens the application and a new screen comes up that says:
"You have 3 new items to download"
The application will need to communicate with a custom server to obtain changes. The changes will only be known by that server, not the Apple App Store.
Is the above possible to program?
Yes. Your custom server sends them to Apple for distribution to devices. Read Apple's Push Notifications documentation for more info.
