User Notifications Tutorial (iOS 10, Swift 3.0)

By kenechi, September 18, 2016

This is a two part tutorial all about Apple’s new User Notification framework, to show you how to use rich, interactive local notifications in iOS 10. In part one I show you how to: request authorisation from the user to send them notifications, create and schedule a local user notification, handle the display of that notification in-app, add actions to the notification using notification categories. and react to the action the user selected.

Part two deals with adding attachments, modifying pending and delivered notifications & implementing a notification content extension.
