Is it possible to customize the push notification screen in ios?

Question

Hi I'm currently working on a chat application using XMPP framework. When a user is offline & when they receive a message, I'm sending them a push notification along with the message. Is it possible to add a "Reply" button on the push notification screen like how it is in iMessage, so that the user can reply to messages directly from the notification screen?

Is it possible to customize the notification screen?

Ideas are appreciated.

You are looking after Notification with actions which is available in iOS8. In Local and Remote Notification Programming Guide you should look at the "Using Notification Actions in iOS" section
