Is that possible to use Interactive Push Notifications in ExpoKit? - react-native

Is that possible to use Interactive Push Notifications in ExpoKit? Or this feature is only available in pure Expo now?

Currently you will not be able to use Expo’s Interactive push notifications outside of a managed Expo project. There are some other alternatives can be used such as wix/react-native-ntifications.

How to display an image in a expo local notification

To give more clarity on the issue, i am developing this for IOS using expo notifications and expo sdk44 in my current project.
I have a couple of questions which i failed to find the answer to in their official documentation.
Is it possible to display images in a local notification while using expo's expo-notification library?
Is it possible to send "data-only" messages to Apple devices using expo push notification service?
Thanks in advance
expo-notifications has limited features and not currently support a custom image in the notification.
In case you need a native-like notification experience, you should opt for https://notifee.app/.

Creating native Android push notifications for App built with PWA builder

Successfully created an Android app of my PWA using PWA builder.
Also Added web push notifications with the Service worker and web Firebase messaging API.
But due to certain shortcomings of web push notifications, I want to use the native push notifications using firebase SDK for Android instead.
Reading a few of these answers How to use push notification for trusted web activity, Cannot understand how to open a simple TWA inside an app (using AndroidX) gives me the impression that I need to have access to Main Activity and put Firebase onMessageReceived inside onCreate function.
But given PWA builder is a Node application that builds APK, I don't know where to start. I understand that I have to 1. Include the Firebase SDK & 2. Put onMessageReceived
But how to go about it using PWA builder?
Or Is it not possible at all? I need to create a brand new Andriod studio project and add TwaLauncher, from android-browser-helper as some of the answers mention?
Also posted this question on PWA builder issues.
When you are generating Android APK, enable the "Notification Delegation" option.

How can I make a react native application with push notifications and an API

I am building a new application in React Native and I built an API for the back-end.
I want to build in a push notification in the app when there is a new entry delivered by the API. I saw a framework that background fetches an API route and then shows a push notification but this only applies ones every 15 minutes. Other push notifications tutorials I see only work with a firebase database and I need it to work with my API.
Is somebody known with combining rest api's with push notifications in react native, that can help me?
Greetings,
Laurens
step 1:- first you need to add react-native-firebase, messaging in your react-native project for receiving push notification.
link to add react-native-firebase
step 2 :- check your application setup using firebase console's
Cloud Messaging service.
https://console.firebase.google.com/project/fir-demo-f375c/notification
if your application setup is perfect you will get push notification in device from firebase console's Cloud Messaging service.
step 3:- need to add server side code to fire push notification from server,
when your api hites to using server language like PHP.
for more detail in step 3 follow

How to Send Push Notification to Xamarin Android app?

I need to implement push notification to our Android App using Xamarin. Here is the process. We have web version which used by the Manager. The Manager creates and assign job to the driver. The App version is used by the Driver where it shows the list of jobs and processes of job until its complete. So, when the Manager assigned the Job to the Driver in the Web version, it will then notified to the Driver in the App version that "new job is assigned". Basically, both the web and app uses same database then we created an api(REST API in MVC C#) to connect and get data from the db to be used in the mobile app.
Can someone recommend to me which Push notification plugin(a plugin or nuget) should I use to do this? Currently, I have set up Push Notifications through App center & Firebase but not sure how this work.
Thank you.

I would suggest you use Firebase for mobile push notifications for Android as it is a product by Google, and was made for mobile applications. For push notifications, you will be using Firebase Cloud Messaging also known as FCM. See to it that you are well versed on how it works before you start coding anything read the documents it answers most of your questions there itself.

For this, you will have to check on how to work with Firebase using Rest-API. Once you configure the Rest-API and then apply your business logic to it things will be quite easier than you might have imagined.

My recommendation is quite simple, Do not use any sort of a firebase push notifications plugin!. I have had a very bad past with plugins and ever since then I never recommend fellow developers to use plugins until it is a well-maintained one. I would rather ask you to simply configure Firebase on the basis of the guides that are available online. Like the following Xamarin.Android guide for FCM. It is detailed contains everything that you are looking for and what else I would suggest is you check firebase related answers on SO and you will find that almost everything that is not available in docs is covered around here and in detail. Like the following:
How to handle Firebase Notification i.e. Notification Messages and Data Messages
Push Notification in android with firebase get token
How to send device to device messages using Firebase Cloud Messaging?
Receive push notifications on one android app from two Firebase projects

React Native Remote Notifications

So what are your experiences with sending remote notifications to RN app from FCM?
I did some research today, tried bunch of tutorials, but most of them didn't work.
So I wanna hear your opinion, which library are you using for this and what guide did you follow?
react-native-push-notification
react-native-fcm
react-native-firebase
react-native-onesignal
I did the connection a few days ago. It is not difficult but it requires a lot of configuration as notification is a native feature. I recommend you the following library that can help you:
React Native FCM
Also take in count the following things:
For ios you need get some certificates from apple.
This guide help with the setup and android part.
Remote notification can't reach iOS emulator since it can't fetch APNS token. Use real device.
I used to react-native-fcm, but now I use react-native-firebase, it is simple to use, just follow the documentation https://rnfirebase.io/docs/v5.x.x/getting-started
just follow the installation tab guide, cloud messaging tab guide, and notification tab, also you can find js code there. for IOS part, you need some extra work to add some certificate to your developer id and add some certificate to your firebase app.
