iOS push notification received when app is running in foreground

Question

From my understanding, when app is running or in the foreground and a push notification is received, the app should NOT show any alert but the app delegate will call the

Answer 1

When the App is in foreground, it should not display anything.

If you see alertView, it means you provided code for it.

Something along the following lines:

-(void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo
{
    UIApplicationState state = [application applicationState];

    if (state == UIApplicationStateActive) {
        //app is in foreground
        //the push is in your control
    } else {
        //app is in background:
        //iOS is responsible for displaying push alerts, banner etc..
    }
}

If you have implemented pushNotificationDelegate

[UAPush shared].pushNotificationDelegate = self;

then override, and leave it blank

- (void)displayNotificationAlert:(NSString *)alertMessage
{
  //do nothing
}
