iOS Question Entitlement purpose and push notifications

[Yvon Steinthal]

Hello,

I have been playing around with the push notifications for a little while now, and everything seems to work propery with Firebase set up and everything. I however have two concerns regarding some of my code.

First, the push notification wouldnt work with a Apple Push Services certificate but it does on a APN Development iOS. (in release and debug mode)

Second, i have this line:

#Entitlement: <key>aps-environment</key><string>development</string>

That i thought was necessary but even commented the push works... ? So is it essential in release on the app store?

Thanks.

Y.

1. It is recommended to only use production certificates.
2. This entitlement (with production) is required. My guess is that you tested the notifications when the process was running. In that case it is sent directly from Firebase to the device.
