Question

I am working on push notification on iPad. My application is a universal application include iPhone and iPad. The iPhone push notification works well, the user receives push, the app name appears in the Setting -> Notifications

However, I have a small issue with the ipad version is that the app name does not appear in the list of Settings -> Notifications. I can still register for the device ID, the iPad does receive the push notification.

Does anyone know what can be a reason? I checked and be sure that both the registering code for both devices are exactly the same

Maybe this is obvious, but did you try to:

• Restart the iPad?
• Completely remove the App, create a clean build and run that build on the iPad?
• Try to install on another iPad? Is the issue also present on the other iPad?

Reinstalling a clean build and restarting the device should do the trick with the majority of strange problems like this one. If this is not resolving your problem it’s very important to test on another iPad or completely reset your iPad.

This way you can see if there is something wrong in the iOS install itself. It sounds like this is the case, because push is working and the iPhone version is working fine.

By testing on another iPad you could determine if the problem is in your code/App or in iOS.
