Flutter Environment

  • Flutter Version: 3.29.3 (stable)
  • Dart Version: 3.7.2
  • Xcode Version: 26.0.1
  • CocoaPods Version: 1.16.2

Firebase Packages

  • firebase_core: ^4.1.1
  • firebase_messaging: ^16.0.2

Device / OS

  • Device: iPhone 11 (Physical)
  • iOS Version: 18.6.2

I am facing an issue where the APNs token is always null when trying to retrieve it on a physical iOS device.

Future<void> getAPNSToken() async {
  try {
    debugPrint("getAPNSToken called");
    String apnsToken = await FirebaseMessaging.instance.getAPNSToken() ?? "";
    debugPrint('getAPNSToken APNS Token: $apnsToken');
  } catch (e) {
    debugPrint('getAPNSToken Error getting APNS token: $e');
  }
}

Output:

flutter: getAPNSToken called
flutter: getAPNSToken APNS Token: 

flutter: [firebase_messaging/apns-token-not-set] 
APNS token has not been set yet. Please ensure the APNS token is available by calling `getAPNSToken()`.

  • Notification services cannot be tested on the iOS simulator. A real device is required. Additionally, you need to enable the Apple Push Notification service to interact with the FCM, vis-a-vis generating a certificate based on your development status, and an APNS auth key that must be uploaded to the Firebase console. Note: You can easily send push notifications from the console itself, not needing to irritate your backend dev to send from the server… Commented Sep 26 at 12:23
