Sample Code that illustrates the problem

Logs taken while reproducing problem

I tested, push notification code is executing each time when app starts, Code of initial function

     var push = PushNotification.init(
    { "android": {"senderID": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
                 },
      "ios": {"alert": "true", "badge": "true", "sound": "true"
             } 

    });

// checking if app already have regisrationID
if (localStorage.getItem("push") === null) {
            localStorage.setItem("push", 1);


        push.on('registration', function(data) {
        console.log(data.registrationId);
        //app.alert(data.registrationId);

           //Ajax call to send registration id to server database 
            var postData = {senderid: data.registrationId};
                                     $.ajax({
                                      // cache: false,
                                      type: 'POST',
                                      url: "XXXXXXXXXXXXXX.php",
                                      //beforeSend: function() { },
                                      // complete: function(){  },
                                      //dataType: "json",
                                      data: postData,
                                      success: function(data) {
                                         // PROCESS DATA HERE
                                          //app.alert(JSON.stringify(data));

                                      },
                                      error: function(data) {
                                         //PROCESS HERE FOR FAILURE
                                         // return View.Modal.openNotification("Error!"); //console.log(data);
                                         app.alert("Network not found");

                                      }
                                  });
        });
}

        push.on('notification', function(data) {
        console.log(data.message);
        alert(data.title+" Message: " +data.message);
        data.title,
        data.sound,
        data.image,
        data.message
            // data.additionalData
        });

        push.on('error', function(e) {
        console.log(e.message);
        });

to take your data notification in foreground and see your alert ,you can call the method finish() on your function push.on('notification', function(data). Like that :

push.on('notification', function(data) {
push.finish( function() {
console.log(data.message);
alert(data.title+" Message: " +data.message);
data.title,
data.sound,
data.image,
data.message
// data.additionalData
}
});

i can see alert when its in foreground, but only alert dialog. no sound, no vibration, no alert

@omaismbakop what you are describing is the way the plugin should work. When the app is in the foreground it is up to you to display a dialog, play a sound or vibrate the device.

i make it worked by setting forceShow true like this

      var push = PushNotification.init(
         { "android": {"senderID": "533867441597", "forceShow": "true"
                 },
      "ios": {"alert": "true", "badge": "true", "sound": "true"
             } 

    });

Hi @omaismbakop , how about ios ?

[chirag0110]

Yes, "forceShow": "true" is work for android. What about IOS?

How can i get notification in forground IOS app.

[Dineshrajaa]

is there any option for force showing notification in iOS app?

[lovelyelfpop]

I found EBForeNotification, it can show the Banners and Sounds as the same as the system notifications on foreground in ios.
Can someone integrate EBForeNotification into this plugin?
