Is there a way to send Push Notification to an iPhone from my website?


I have been trying to figure out a solution to send Push Notification to a device from my website. I have looked into Pushed, OneSignal, etc. but have been unable to find a solution.

Is it possible through some way through APNS (Apple Push Notification service)?

Thanks

EDIT: Other questions on SO, either talk about Push Notifications on a web browser on a desktop but I am hoping to find a solution for a browser on an iPhone.


Solution

  • It is possible for Websites to send Web Push notifications to Chrome (and soon Firefox) users on Android, however it is not possible to do this on iOS devices.

    Apple has not currently indicated whether they plan to add support for this, but there's a good chance they will add it eventually.

    Here is a blog post I wrote a few months ago that discusses this limitation: https://onesignal.com/blog/when-will-web-push-be-supported-in-ios/
