Not receiving push notifications

[theunreal]

I installed the plugin and configured it, everything works but whenever I send notification from Firebase Console to my app, I don't see any notification on my device. Is there anything I'm missing?

• This plugin does not work with Phonegap plugin push (https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugin-push) together because both declare same variable in android strings.xml (google_app_id) with different values

Hi, I'm not sure what you have tried already but these are the steps I followed to get it working on mine. I'm using Ionic though so it might be different.

1. Create the project on Firebase and download the google-services.json file to the root of your Android folder (same folder as android.xml)
2. Install the plugin via cordova plugin add cordoba-plugin-fcm
3. At this stage, you should be able to send a notification to all devices (make sure you select the correct app if you have more than 1).
4. In your document.ready() function, check FCMPlugin is loaded ok then get token. This should allow you to send to a single device by specifying the token.

   if(typeof FCMPlugin !== "undefined"){
        alert("FCMPlugin is installed correctly");
         FCMPlugin.getToken(function(token){
                   alert(token);           
             }, function(err){
                   alert('error retrieving token: ' + err);
         });
   }

Hi @eddie-lu ,Thanks, I'm using Ionic 2, for some reasons I followed all these steps and my device don't receive notifications I send from firebase console. No idea why.

I have never used Ionic 2 so I can't help. If the console is showing success status though, then it might be a problem in the onNotification method.

@hassanmirza , You cannot receive push notifications in the IOS emulator. You must use an actual device to test this functionality.

I am also not getting notification in iOS device. Can you please help me the file names which needs to be used for debugging.

Same for me. Works fine with android, but not with IOS. Any updates on this?

[ftechiesnitin]

Same for me too. I have followed all the steps, I am using Ionic 1. I can see push notifications for Android but not for IOS. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Copi your GoogleService-Info.plist inside platform/ios//resources and inside platform/ios//resources/resources. When build copy this file, the file is corrupted.

I'm also unable to receive notifications on iOS, while Android works fine. Is there an update to this?

Same problem with push notification on iOS. Android works fine. Looks like google change some their API's and this touch iOS. On tokenRefresh function on iOS I get a response of (null).
