iOS Firebase messaging not receiving

Question

I've been breaking my head on this today and yesterday, for some reason my iOS application is not receiving any firebase notifications. For as far as I know I have done everything as it should be.

• I have checked the certifications in my Apple developer account and everything is set up correctly (see screenshots).
• I am testing on a physical device
• Firebase is set up properly and the logs show it connected to firebase correctly
• I have enabled push notifications, background fetch and remote notifications in the capabilities tab of the project
• I have added my APN key from my Apple console to Firebase

When sending a notification through the Firebase console to a topic or to all iOS apps nothing happens. I have the same app running on android smoothly which is receiving all notifications when targeted.

Answer 2

As you say that you are receiving notification in Android and having issue with iOS, then there is possibility that this issue comes because of Payload format. I also met with this issue earlier.

Please make sure that your Payload format must be like below.

{
    "aps" : {
      "alert" : {
        "body" : "great match!",
        "title" : "Portugal vs. Denmark",
      },
      "badge" : 1,
    },
    "customKey" : "customValue"
  }

And if your app running on ios 10 or later, then make sure you set delegate .
