When my application is not active (in background) I recive local notification. After click on this notification application became active. Is it possible to activate application after I recive local notification automaticaly, without clicking on it
No, this is not possible.
From Local and Push Notification Programming Guide
If there is a notification alert and the user taps or clicks the
action button (or moves the action slider), the application launches
and calls a method to pass in the local-notification object or
remote-notification payload.
An action performed by the user is required.
No,
you cannot start any application automatically from background without user getting some actions.
So, for local notifications, application cannot be resumed from background even if local notification is fired. User has to click on notification to open application.
Hope this info helps you..

I want to know if the following is possible in flutter using flutter firebase messaging (FCM)
Scenario:
The app is closed or killed. A firebase push message is sent to the device (or device is listening on some topic etc.). The app gets the notification in the background and based on a flag in the data, either shows a notification in the notification tray or opens the app and displays a modal dialog to alert the user of an emergency notification. This has to happen automatically without having the user to click on the notification
Use case,
Any notification with medium severity that comes in can be displayed as a notification in the notification tray. The user can click on it and open the app whenever he wants to
Any notification with critical severity and which requires immediate user attention needs to automatically show a modal dialog with some buttons to enable the user to take action. It must play some sound to get the users attention.
I have done this in android previously where we used to get the notification in the notification handler and then based on the incoming message data, we used to either show a notification or show a dialog.
I am working on an iphone app where I store all the local(and push) notifications for my app. There will be a screen on app which shows all the notifications generated by the app. My question is that can an iphone app know when a local notification for that app is shown. for example, suppose that a local notification is shown, but the user simply ignores that notification, and does not tap on it, so in this situation, can my app somehow find out if the local notification was shown and do some processing on it(for example, store the notification data in sqlite database).
I have tried both "didFinishlaunchingWithOptions" and "didReceiveLocalNotificatios", but from my understanding, they are invoked when a user laucnhes app by tapping on the notifiaction, is there a method by which I can have the notification data even when user does not tap on the notification.
tldr; can an iphone app handle(process) local notifications even when user does not launch app by tapping the notification.
No, your app wan't get any notification whcih user has ignored. Your app will notified only when user presses view or tap on that notification.
I am using phonegap push notification plugin and all seems work fine. push comes without any problem.
But the problem is there is nothing I can do when app is back-grounded.
multiple push notifications can arrive when app is backgrounded. I can not expect which push
notification user going to click. Whatever notification user clicks, app will be resumed without
information of user selection. I have to trigger different events depanding on what nofitication
user selected. I need to know what notification user selected when app is resumed but don't
know how to... seems very tricky problem. is there anybody had same problem?
how did you guys handle this problem?
any help will be appriciated.
never mind...
I thought window.plugins.pushNotifiction.getPendingNotification would return all pending
notifications which arrived while app is background.
But getPendingNotification function only returns the notification that user selected on
notification center or mobile screen.
well... seems nice..
you can`t get all notification information which fire during application is off or app. is in background but, you can fetch user info shortly receive notification in native iOS app.
please follow this application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions.
At first call of launch you can check for options and retrive the user-info.
for more info refer above link.
I have a UILocalNotification that fires on a recurring schedule. The purpose that the notification fulfills is to just simply remind the user to do something. When the notification fires, they can enter into the app and another alert pops up and asks them if they complete the task, and the app tracks accordingly.
If the user is using their phone, the notification fires, and the app switches great, and the user input is recorded. If they are using the app at the time the notification fires, everything works great. If they aren't using their phone, the notification wakes the phone up, and has an option to "Slide to view" whereupon the app comes up and the alert pops up great and the input is recorded.
The problem is when the user isn't using their phone, and the user DOESN'T slide to view during the few second window that the alert wakes up the phone, when the user wakes up the device later on, the alert window is still there, letting the user know that something happened, but the "Slide to view" option is replaced with the standard "Slide to unlock" and when the phone is unlocked, the ability to go into the app is gone, and the user input can't be recorded.
So I am losing access to the ability to respond to a notification in my app. Is there anything that can be done to solve this problem? Thanks!
Only way to do that is to keep track on notification outside notification system. Unfortunately notification system is not allowing you to read any data about notifications you set.
Whenever you set a notification add it to a list of notifications with a date when it will be launched. When user enters your application go through your local list and see which notification expired (date < NOW).
I read more post regarding iPhone notification, and I have a simple question....
Where a device receive a notification (so I can display a message contains the message notificatio ti advise the user).
I understand that message is managed by the application.
The question is:
...when my application receive the notification is it possible to start it?
Or in other world the application became run when receive the notification or it simple became active only to manage the message and at the end of notification management the app return to sleep?
The main application windows is opened on the device ?
Many thanks in advance

With push notifications you can prompt the user to take action, which if they agree (by tapping the "open application" button), will open the application automatically.
The caveat is that you can't do this without the users consent. They have to tap the open application button for your app to open. There's no way to open the app automatically without the user's action, nor is there any way to open, perform the required actions and quit the app automatically.
The apps dont "sleep" they are either running or not (till 4.0 OS that is), im assuming you are asking about push notification, what happens when a user receives a notification is that they can choose to close it, or go ahead and "view" the notification which can cause the app to open automatically...thats as far is it goes in the current system i blive...
