Push Notifications

Enabling User Notifications

The Airship SDK makes a distinction between “user notifications,” which can be seen by the user, and other forms of push that allow you to send data to your app silently, or in the background. Enabling or disabling user notifications is a preference often best left up to the user, so by default, user notifications are disabled.

UAirship.Shared.UserNotificationsEnabled = true;

Foreground Presentation Options

The SDK provides support for foreground presentation options. The three UNNotificationPresentationOptions constants are badge, sound, and alert. These constants specify how to present a notification when the application receives a remote notification in the foreground. You can set default presentation options that will be applied to all remote-notifications.
