What does iOS push token and hwid look like?
iOS device push tokens are 64 hexadecimal symbols strings. Push token example:
03df25c845d460bcdad7802d2vf6fc1dfde97283bf75cc993eb6dca835ea2e2f
Make sure that iOS push tokens you use when targeting specific devices in your API requests are lower case.
Starting with iOS 7 Pushwoosh SDK hwid is based on either IDFV or IDFA depending on the application settings (whether the app is using Ad Framework). If you do not use the Advertisement Identifier in your application as intended for advertisement purposes, you should not link the AdSupport.framework, and Pushwoosh will not use IDFA, and will use IDFV instead. HWID example:
CBAF8ED1-17FB-49A3-73BD-DC79B63AEF93

How to switch banner on and off when my app is running?
By default our latest iOS SDK displays the notification banner when the app is running in the foreground.
You can control this behavior by changing the following flags in the Info.plist:
Flag "Pushwoosh_ALERT_TYPE"
– string type, values are:
"BANNER"
– default value, displays banner in-app alert
"ALERT"
– alert notification
"NONE"
– do not display a notification when the app is in the foreground
How do I obtain my iOS device push token to use in Test Devices?
In order to get your iOS device push token, you should do the following:
- Open Xcode Organizer
- Connect your device to your computer, and choose this device in the list of devices on the left side, choose Console
- Launch the application you need to get the device push token for
- Locate your 64 hexadecimal characters device push token in the “Registered for push notifications” line.
