FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸

Features:

• Customize notification title and subtitle
• Recieve remote push notifications
• View notification token

Installation

• Requires iOS 14.0+
• Download the pre-compiled .ipa from Releases
• Sideload the app using any sideload tool using a certificate that supports notifications
• TanaraSign is a recommeneded sideload tool

Building the project:

• To build the project you will need Xcode 15.0+
• Using the app installed via Xcode results in a sandbox notification environment which results a bad token, and defeats the use case of this project.
• Archive the app Product > Archive > Release Testing
• Sideload the app using any sideload tool using a certificate that supports notifications
• TanaraSign is a recommeneded sideload tool

Manual testing:

To test the notifications remotely you will need the app installed

• Obtain your notification token Long press the token to copy
• Send a POST request to: https://api.wholelotta.red/push/send
• Include the following as raw/json in the body:

{
    "title": "Notification Title",
    "subTitle": "Notification Subtitle",
    "deviceToken": "DeviceToken"
}

Responses:

200 - OK:

{"message": "Notification sent successfully."}

500 - Error:

{"error": "The operation couldn’t be completed. (APNSwift.APNSwiftError.ResponseError error 0.)"}

The most common cause of this issue is using the app built straight from Xcode instead of exporting the .ipa
