PushKit_SilentPushNotification to receive VOIP call while iOS app is in background or terminated state
You can also use pushkit silent push notification for other use like updating local database without opening app etc, you have keep your app in special category and take approvals from Apple.
- Swift language
- Objective C
- Pushkit
- VOIP integration
- Handle VOIP based calls in background or terminate state
- Local notification to schedule once pushkit payload receive
- Integrate Pushkit in iOS App
- Video call integration in iOS App

- Put debug pointer on delegate methods
- Go to edit scheme
- Select run option then Launch -> Wait for executable to be launched
- Send push kit payload from back end
- Once you get payload on device
- it will automatically invoke and debug pointer will invoke at delegate methods.
- First of all
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions // will invoke
- Then
didReceiveIncomingPushWithPayload // payload method gets invoke
- Then if you have local notification
didReceiveLocalNotification // receive local notification
- Then
handleActionWithIdentifier // handler method if you have action buttons ( local )
- Then if you have remote notification
didReceiveRemoteNotification // receive remote notification
- Then
handleActionWithIdentifier // handler method if you have action buttons ( remote )
