Push Notification Interceptions? - azure-mobile-services

What is the possibility of inception of a specific push notification being pushed or its response received by the Mobile App Service? Being read if intercepted?
I am developing a Xamarin Cross-platform application based on the current templates incorporating Azure Mobile App Services.

Trusted Web Activities and Push Notifications Without User Opt-In

I'm currently working on publishing my PWA to Play Store; and stuck with Notifications. My TWA makes use of Firebase Push Notifications for Web - and they work fine. The only issue is that user must opt-in to the notifications when using PWA.
However, I'd like to enable notifications automatically whenever user downloads my TWA app from Play Store; and I couldn't find any relevant section in Google's TWA tutorials.
I have zero knowledge of Android development but I'm following tutorials by Google and got the TWA working on my mobile, minus the push notifications.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

beacon based notification on Andriod without Nearby API

Google has discontinued Near By API by the end of 2018. Android OS had built in support for Near by API and hence without a custom APP , the device was able to capture the beacon based push notifications.My requirement is as follows:
With Digital loyalty pass on Google wallet, when the end customer enters the vicinity of a beacon , the device should receive offers as push notification. There is no custom app developed . With out a custom app , how to receive the push notifications with just the Digital loyalty pass on google wallet? . Please help with a solution.
Please refer https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2018/10/discontinuing-support-for-android.html
Unfortunately after Google Nearby was discontinued, there is no longer a solution to send notifications to a user on BLE detection without a third party app installed to do so.
The only workaround is to develop a third party app to do the detecting and notifying. Keep in mind that the way Google implemented this was with the Google Play Services app, so an app was still required to send the notifications. (It was just an app that was installed by default on most phones sold outside of mainland China.). And it didn't even work unless a user had opted in, something that few ever did.
Google's Nearby discontinuation basically says Google is no longer willing to use their app to send notifications for you. So you must use your own app or the app of a different partner.
There are other third party apps that track a user's location and send notifications -- such apps are often popular "free" games. But while the install base of these apps can be in the hundreds of millions they do not approach the install base of Google Play Services. These apps can also be a bit "shady" about their practices, and to my knowledge do not have a public policy about how you can get them to send notifications for you or let users opt-in or opt-out.

register device token manually with Firebase Notifications

I would like to integrate my existing ionic ios app with the new firebase notification service. But i could not find any documentation about registering a device token manually with the rest api or web api.
Am i missing any new feature? Or is this not possible with the current libraries?
Firebase Notifications at launch just supports Android and iOS.
For now, you can implement FCM directly for the web, see the documentation for FCM, which will allow pushing messages via the API.

Can we send push notifications to apps that use our SDK?

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.

Push notifications for a salesforce iPhone application

I am trying to evaluate the ways in which I could implement push notification for a salesforce iPhone app that I am going to create. Options I am going to explore are Urban Airship or Salesforce's Streaming API. Does anyone have any recommendation (Best solutions available) or does anyone know of any other ways. Also please guide me on the steps to achieve push notification for an app that gets data from salesforce.com using salesforce.com's rest API.
Starting with the Spring 14 release, Salesforce supports Apple ( APNS ) and Google ( GCM ) mobile push notifications via the Connected Apps framework. Please check the Mobile Push Notifications Tip Sheet on Developer Force for more information: http://www2.developerforce.com/en/mobile/resources
