I'm using QuickBlox iOS SDK v2.4.6. (on starter tier)
The "unregisterSubscriptionForUniqueDeviceIdentifier" method seems to work fine as long as the app hasn't been in the background for more than a couple of hours (i.e. registering the subscription with QB works and you can see the subscription in the QB admin panel, and unregistering it removes it - but unregistering fails if the app is in background more than a couple of hours).
I initially thought this may be due to session timeout, but in QB 2.4+ ssession handling is automatic (I have also checked for a valid session on re-launching the app from the background and it does exist).
Does anyone have an idea what might be going on here?

In a previous answer regarding Notification Delegation between Chrome and an Android TWA app it was said that:
"If the TWA has notifications disabled in Android Settings, we disable
them in Chrome instead. There's a little bit of latency with how this
gets propagated, but things should get updated on the next TWA launch
at latest.
How exactly Notification Delegation does work?
On my site I am sending the user to androids app notification settings when I find that notifications are not allowed in the browser.
But upon the users immediate return, the changes are not propagated to Chrome (to be expected from the comment above since the TWA is not launched again).
I wonder if there is anyway I can speed this up? Otherwise the user is forced to exit the page completely and restart the app before the permission is granted, which is not a very good user experience.
It seems the only workaround would be to force restarting the application, which is not a great user experience. I have filed an issue on Chromium bugs to track a fix for this: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1064300
I published an app to the App Store using Titanium Studio in 2013. I have recently found a bug in the code that I want to fix and publish.
I logged into Appcelerator's website to download the latest studio since it's been three years, only to find out that it's a paid platform now.
I just want to make a quick bug fix and publish. I don't need any of the services that come with the platform.
I realize there is a free SDK that you can compile yourself, etc, etc.
I don't mind paying for a $36 for one month only if it enables me to just publish a new version of my app.
My question is, if I publish the app after paying the $36 and then cancel my subscription, will the cancellation affect my app? Does the IDE inject some sort of "call home" time bomb?
I tried asking the support at appcelerator but they answered like a politician and dodged it.
Thanks for any help.
A published/compiled app has no direct connection with appcelerator. So if you cancel the subscription nothing happens.
However, if you use paid services... things might go wrong.
Statistics for example is a paid service. If you cancel subscription I assume the app keeps working but will make calls to their backend that most likely will fail (not sure about this). App should keep working.
If you use any cloud service (push notifications, arrow storage etc) your app will stop working of course.
If you don't use any of the services, you can just cancel and be done with it.
That said, if you just want to make 1 change to an app you could just dive in and compile without the Appcelerator Platform and just use the Open Source code.
WatchOS app works normally if being opened from home screen. If I try to open it from remote notification screen (by tapping title label) two app behaviors can be spotted:
If application was loaded previously (I don't know how to name it, maybe better to tell that app is not killed by system or still present in memory). In this case application will load normally and do some action if asked (for example open some Interface Controller and show remote notification details).
If application was launched long time ago (or killed by system, unloaded from memory, in my case I'm stopping it in Xcode). If app receives remote notification in this state after tapping on title label of notification scene it will try to load for some time and finally crash (this may take 1sec or 1min). Or it will stuck with loading indicator shown - what is interesting that in this case if I'll try to attach watch extension process to Xcode debug it will show that app is launched and works (for example I can send some data from parent iOS app and watchOS app will receive it - triggered method in Extension delegate and do some stuff).
Googling I have found that watch apps can be killed by system if they take to much power when being launched, so I tried to remove any load while app is starting itself but with no success - it still keeps crashing.
The only close to mine situation that I've found so far was a topic in apple developers forum:
https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/20553
I have been spotting the same logs like in topic when watching how watch app behave in Xcode/Devices, but after updating to WatchOS 3 (now 3.1 beta) and using new Xcode 8 (now 8.1 beta) I can't see any logs from WatchOS at all (just some system messages that watch screen was turned of and on).
Have any one spotted such issues while working with watchOS remote notifications? Any suggestion where to search for solution?
When looking at the contents of Version 6.1.0 Fix Pack 1, it doesn't appear to list PI06519 as one of it's constituents, yet when applying the fix pack in a bid to address the slow start up issue, it appears to fix the problem.
Is this supposed to be the definitive list of the contents of the fix pack and is simply an oversight, or should I be looking somewhere else for the full contents of it?
There is some problem with listing this APAR in the list of fixes which has yet to be resolved.

I'm trying to take users of My App to the AppStore for several different functions - like Upgrade to Full Version, Rate/Review or simply View another App I've developed. However, all of these are causing my App to Terminate when iTunes is launched on the device. I'm using some simple code and
have tried many combinations of URLs, all of which successfully get to where they are going. Here are the behaviors:
User clicks Rate App
Code directs them to the web via:
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:
[NSURL URLWithString:[[MyApp defaultApp] itunesLink]]];
My App goes to the background, and my delegate's applicationDidEnterBackground is called successfully
As iTunes is coming up, my App is terminated. Happens whether I run via X-Code or on the device directly.
When I quit out of the store and look at the running processes on the device, my App is still shown there. I know it has been terminated from X-Code console, and when I try to restart it it starts fresh.
I've tried the itunesLink as either itms://itunes.apple.com/app/ or with http - all of which get to the correct end point. If I use www.google.com it works fine and my App is NOT terminated, just sent to the background and the website is displayed OK.
Other points are that when I run via the simulator, the openURL call returns failure and doesn't open any URL.
Any insights as to why my App would be terminating? It's acting like an iOS security feature or something which is shutting my App down, but I thought what I was doing was pretty standard stuff.
If anyone has seen anything similar, I'd really appreciate advice on the situation.
Your app could be terminated for a number of reasons. The best thing is to look at the device console using Xcode's Organizer:
Your app may simply be terminated as a result of low memory notifications. As soon as it moves to the background and the app store launches (iTunes and the app store both use plenty of memory) it can be killed to free up memory. In this case you will set messages from "jetsam" like this:
<Notice>: jetsam: kernel termination snapshot being created
<Warning>: Application 'UIKitApplication:com.yourapp[0x6337]' exited abnormally with signal 9: Killed: 9
You should use the Activity Monitor in Instruments to see how much memory your application is using. iOS will terminate the most memory-intensive applications first, so you should try to reduce your app's memory footprint.
