Currently, I cannot use pods inside App Extensions with nativescript.

It tries to install pods before adding the App Extension to the project.

For example:

App_Resources/iOS/Podfile end target 'AppExtension' do pod 'Firebase/Messaging' end Build Error: [!] Unable to find a target named `AppExtension`, did find ``ProjectNameHere`. 'pod install' command failed.`

This means it's impossible to have images appear on iOS notifications with Firebase.

Hey @aeliusdev , Currently it is not possible to use Pods for your App Extension. However, you can use additional frameworks, as described in our docs. I'm marking this issue as feature request.
