Is it possible to launch iPhone application automatically when it receives remote notification whether it is closed or in the background? I would appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance,
Sarah
Short answer : You can't automatically launch your app when a new notification is received.
When an push notification is sent to an iPhone, the user is presented a view that is looking like an new SMS.
The user has then the option to open your application or dismiss this view.
You should check this out:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/MobileHIG/HandleTasks/HandleTasks.html
and read beneath Enabling Local and Push Notifications, Here you will find an answer to your question.
Then read this:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/IPhoneOSClientImp/IPhoneOSClientImp.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008194-CH103-SW1
How to implement it.
Happy Coding!

I was wondering if Flutter has the ability to generate push notifications from within the app. If so is there a code example of this?
Description:
An event occurs on the flutter app such as a button being clicked or an if statement being triggered, I want a push notification sent to the user.
The app should also always be running in the background, is this possible? If so can you provide me a link with an example of this implementation.
Thanks in advance for all the help!
I have looked on google but I haven't been able to find a lot of information regarding these two topics.
Being an iOS engineer, I'd say that you actually want local notifications. Push notifications are usually being sent by a server.
You could check how it's usually done on iOS natively: developer.apple.com.
I want a timer to keep executing in background even when the application is not active. And depending upon some conditions I want to fire a local push notification. How can I achieve this?
Thanks

it seems that is not possible.
first, you register the local push notification and its fire date when your app is active and you can not do it when your app is not active.
second, when you register a local push notification the iphone os is in charge to fire it and not your app.
third, background activity is permitted only for 3 things - music, VOP and navigation, thats all.
if you can explain exactly what you want to achieve we might try to help you in other ways.
hope it will help

How is the msn messenger app developed? What I want to know is how does the app gets ti know that a new message is received, even while running in the background. Please refer any code snippets or tutorial.
Many thanks in advance.
Probably with push notification.
See Local and Push Notification Programming Guide
I want to do local push Notification (giving alert) when the user

I hope it would help : http://iphonesdkdev.blogspot.com/2010/04/local-push-notification-sample-code-os.html
and you can search for pushmebaby for testing push notification in iPhone.
I'm looking for a way to get real time notification from a server in an iPhone App. I don't want to use Apple Push Notification as I have many notifications. My web service is coded in PHP, and I haven't figured out an easy way to implement this functionnality. Any idea what should I do?
Thx a lot for your help!
EDIT : I'm looking for a way to get notification only when the app is launched (otherwise, the only option IS Apple Push not.).
If the app is running you can open an http connection from the app to the server and have the server hold it open, pushing data through it when you want. This is basically how COMET works.
This will only work while your app is running. If you need the notification to happen even if the user has closed the app then Apple Push Notifications are your only option.
You must use Apple Push Notification for achieving push notifications cycle on Apple's mobile devices.
