iOS foreground notification is not showing up

[advance-through-prac]

Hi not sure if this is the right place to post..

I couldn't receive notification when the (iOS) app is in foreground, not sure what is the cause of it. no issue receiving notification when its in background. Tested it on my iOS device.

any idea if I am missing anything? or should I override willpresentnotification in appdelegate?

been searching around but couldn't find a solution to it.

in MauiProgram.cs:

in appdelegate:

Hi, did you start the application without the debugger attached?

Otherwise how are you sending the notification? Did you try to use the curl command of the documentation:

curl --location 'https://fcm.googleapis.com/fcm/send' \
--header 'Authorization: key=<your-api-token-from-firebase-console-cloud-messaging-project-settings>' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
 "to" : "<your-device-fcm-token>",
 "collapse_key" : "type_a",
 "mutable_content": true,
 "notification" : {
     "title": "Knock knock",
     "body" : "Who's there?",
     "badge": 1
 },
 "data" : {
     "body" : "body of your notification in data",
     "title": "title of your notification in data",
     "is_silent_in_foreground": false
 }
}'

@advance-through-prac did you say that you can receive the Notification Ps when running physically on iPhone while on foreground and not background?

I can’t seem to receive any whether running on foreground or background on my iPhone in Production but everything works well on Android.

I found that sometimes the lifecycle event FinishedLaunching acts up on ios. Instead I found that WillFinishLaunching worked better / more consistenly.

events.AddiOS(iOS => iOS.WillFinishLaunching((_, options) =>
{
CrossFirebase.Initialize(CreateCrossFirebaseSettings());
return false;
}));

Sorry for hijacking but I can't get any notifications to work on ios but it works perfectly fine on Android. Is CreateCrossFirebaseSettings needed? I fined it very confusing because some documentation have it and some have it like the code below.

          events.AddiOS(ios => ios.FinishedLaunching((_, __) =>
          {
              CrossFirebase.Initialize();
              FirebaseCloudMessagingImplementation.Initialize();
              return false;
          }));

@Drol It depends on whether you are using the bundled version of the plugin or just the single feature version. If you are using Plugin.Firebase the CrossFirebaseSettings are needed, if you are using Plugin.Firebase.CloudMessaging they are not.

Oh thanks I didnt realize that. Maybe that explains why it wont work for me on Ios :-)

Edit: It did not help. So I have to remove the package Plugin.Firebase and only install Plugin.Firebase.CloudMessaging? But I am using Plugin.Firebase.Firestore and Plugin.Firebase.Storage aswell and those are working fine. So I should install all those?

Edit2: Nevermind I got it working.

Hi, how did you resolve it at the end? i followed the conversation but i cant get it working on iOS. (Android working just fine)

[aelmardi]

Hello, same thing on my side it works perfectly on Android but on iOS nothing to do. I followed the tutorial to the letter.

EDIT: I take that back, not working for me yet!

Thanks @Gekidoku, after using WillFinishLaunching, everything is working fine for me now! I'm using dotnet 7 with Plugin.Firebase.CloudMessaging

Do the following in AppDelegate class.
