Firebase Messaging Quickstart

The Firebase Messaging iOS Quickstart app demonstrates how to connect an iOS app to FCM and how to receive messages.

Best Practices

  • In this sample the request for permission to receive remote notifications is made on first run, this results in a permission dialog on first run. Most apps would want that dialog to be shown at a more appropriate time. So move the registration for remote notifications to a more appropriate place in your app.

Getting Started

  • Add APNS certs to your project in Project Settings > Notifications in the console
  • Run pod install --repo-update
  • Copy in the GoogleServices-Info.plist to your project
  • Update the app Bundle ID in Xcode to match the Bundle ID of your APNs cert.
  • Run the sample on your iOS device.

Note:

  • You will need Swift 3.0 to run the Swift version of this quickstart.
  • APS Environment Entitlements are required for remote notifications as of Xcode 8. Ensure that Push Notifications are on without error in App > Capabilities.
