Push Notification Not Working On iOS with cordova-plugin-fcm-with-dependency-updated .

[vivekkumarbiswal]

Hello @andrehtissot & all i am facing problem with push notification with iOS application but its completely working fine with android (i have build an ionic cordova hybrid application).
I think the push notification was working fine before i updating iOS 16.1 SDK (xcode 14.3).

Issues i m facing while building: (ionic cordova build ios --configuration production --release)

but when i do edit the pod file with a specific version ~> 7.4.0 (Firebase/Messaging version) and do pod install and then build it again then it got build successfully without any error and all functionality is working perfectly in the application but the push notification is not working.

Note: if i m putting any other versions except 7.4.0 the pod install is getting succeeded but the build is getting failed.

Pod File:

to

pod install:

node version:
v14.17.3

npm version
6.14.13

cordova version
11.1.0

ionic version
5.4.16

Pod version(cocoapods)
1.11.2

System:
macOS Ventura (13.2.1)
Xcode 14.3

Thank you!

I am also working on a Ionic (hybrid) APP and this plugin is working fine on Android.
On IOS it is compiled successfully, but the notifications no more arrive on Apple devices.
It was working fine until mid August 2023. Is it anything changed on Firebase side?

Thank you !

Hi @vivekkumarbiswal finally I solved with these 2 actions:

1. reinstalling the plugin with ALL the parameters suggested in the ReadMe:

ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-fcm-with-dependecy-updated --variable ANDROID_DEFAULT_NOTIFICATION_ICON="@mipmap/ic_launcher" --variable ANDROID_FIREBASE_BOM_VERSION="26.0.0" --variable ANDROID_GOOGLE_SERVICES_VERSION="4.3.4" --variable ANDROID_GRADLE_TOOLS_VERSION="4.1.0" --variable IOS_FIREBASE_MESSAGING_VERSION="~> 7.4.0"

2. Inserting the explicit request for the Permission to receive the Push Notifications:

const wasPermissionGiven = await FCM.requestPushPermission({ });

If still not working, try removing the platform IOS, remove the plugin, reinstall the plugin, then reinstall the platform IOS.

do you know how to resolve this ?

[carlo318]

I am sorry I don't know how to help you, I don't get that error.

[vivekkumarbiswal]

It got resolved as the issue is not with the plugin its because my app was not using the FCM request push permission, after putting the FCM request push permission its working now.

Is it working on the Android 13 & the latest iOS? Are you able to receive the Push notification successfully?
