iOS Background Push Setup And Diagnosis

Apple calls these background notifications. "Silent push" is the common name for an APNs device notification that wakes the app without an alert, sound, or badge.

Scope

Use this skill for an iOS or iPadOS app that receives apns-push-type: background notifications. Keep these adjacent concerns out of scope:

• visible alerts, local notifications, notification service extensions, and authorization UX;
• Live Activity, PushKit, VoIP, File Provider, and broadcast push types;
• Firebase, other provider SDKs, provider credential provisioning, and widget refresh policy.
