# C+ push notifications - Thurs/Fri 15th + 16th Oct, 2020 I have started adding push notifications for C+. I've previously worked with push notifications in full Swift and Java apps, but this the first time I am implementing them in a React Native context. Our setup works with Apple's APNS and Google's FMS. Thus far, I am using the [react-native-push-notification](https://github.com/zo0r/react-native-push-notification) library. It has been relatively straightforward to get push notifications working on iOS. You can test with the command: ```bash= curl -v https://api.sandbox.push.apple.com/3/device/YOURDEVICETOKEN -d '{"aps":{"alert":"test 123","sound":"default"}}' -H "apns-topic:YOURAPPBUNDLEID" -H "apns-expiration: 1" -H "apns-priority: 10" --http2 --cert ./PATH-TO-PEM ``` The problem I think will be not getting enough information in the notification payload that we need now that the app navigation has changed quite a lot. ###### tags: `programmingjournal` `2020` `notifications` `pushnotifications` `apns`
