How to display multiple notifications in single message in xamarin.forms? - push-notification

I am developing an app in which i want to display push notifications.I implemented that and i am getting notifications well.But when i get two or more notifications the whole notification drawer is occupied by the notifications.I want to display the notifications in single notification if we get multiple notifications.
For example:
I got a message from user-A and i will get a notification.I didn't read the message and then i got other message from user-B and i will get another notification.
Here what i want is to display those two notifications as "2 messages received" in a single notification instead of two separate notifications.
Please help me to solve this issue.I will be thankful for your help.
Thank you.

How do I Modify a Local Notifications TItle Before Showing Notification for iOS Xamarin.Forms?

I am using the MS example for showing a local notification. I am scheduling a daily repeating notification and need to modify the title and message each day based on an API call. I tried modifying the title & message that is sent to iOSNotificationManager.ReceiveNotification() at L31 in iOSNotificationReceiver.cs, but the original title/body is always shown in the notification.
I thought maybe I could not show the original notification and create a new notification to be shown in 1 second; janky I know but it was an idea. The trouble I ran into here is that the original notification is shown even if I return at L72 in iOSNotificationManager.cs before NotificationReceived?.Invoke(null, args); is called.
So how do I modify the title and message when just as the notification is being shown? This works perfectly fine in Android.
One thing I could do is only schedule 1 notification and when the notification is shown schedule tomorrows notification. However, if for some reason the notification was never shown one day then the next day would not be schedule therefor canceling the daily scheduled notification.

Modifying the data shown in a notification for iOS is impossible after the notification has been set. There is no callback method that can be used in iOS like on Android when a notification is shown.
To set the daily notification on repeat with different message the best course of action is to use push notifications. However, not having push notifications setup I set up 64 notifications, which is the max iOS allows, for the next 64 days.
Note: iOS only allows 64 notifications to be set per app.

Push notification when device come back to online state

Is there a way where I can get all the push notifications triggered to a device during its offline state while coming back online ? I know in documentation it is mentioned that only last notification will be received. But is there a work around or some mechanism where the the device can get all the push notifications when coming back online ? I have seen in Whatsapp application that they do get all the push notifications after coming online. Was wondering how that would be happening for them. Any suggestion is highly appreciated.

Handle Notification data without click on notification in ionic 3 (One signal push notification)

i am using Onesignal in ionic 3. I am getting notification properly when the app is in foreground. When I receive a notification in background i am getting the data in the notification only after tapping the notification. But i want to get the data without tapping on the notification.
You're looking for Silent Notifications (Silent Notifications are background notifications that do not show any message on the device)
Right now, you're likely using the onOpened handler. You will need to set up a service extension and be prepared to have to write native code!

How to merge multiple messages from pushnotification as a single message in reactnative firebase

We are trying to implement PushNotification service through firebase cloud messaging. We implemented the device group which can send multiple messages to multiple devices. The problem is that each time we are sending a msg to the registered device we are getting a separate notification instead of merged notification messages like WhatsApp.
How can we achieve this functionality?
Thanks in Advance!!
So here am posting my own answer. What we have done is so simple yet effective.
We have used tag Attribute which replaces the existing notifications with a new one.

How to display a notification in worklight when returning to the foreground?

I am using push notification in worklight 6.2 in one of my apps.
I have a issue regarding receiving of notification. i receive notification when i am in the application .
When i close my app or made my app go background, i receive notification in the status bar and when i click on that,its taking me to the app ask for the authentication which is provided in the app and then goes to the inbox where all the messages are listed the new message is displayed .
But when i receive the notification when my apps is in background and see the notification in status bar and without clicking that notification if i opened the application and see the inbox page ,the message is not displayed because the function which will be executed when receiving notification is not called.
I need to give solution to avoid this. Is there any way or option to display the notification which is received when the app is in background and when the app is opened without opening the notification in status bar.
Thanks in advance
Perhaps you could use a the Cordova resume event, from which you will call the pushNotificationReceived() function as the callback function.
document.addEventListener("resume", pushNotificationReceived, false);
The basic premise is that if a notification was received while you were in the background, then once returning to the foreground the above should executed and the notification will be displayed.
Again, this is just the basic premise and you'll probably need to modify the pushNotificationReceived() implementation to account for what happens when you get back to the foreground but there are no notification (you could implement some logic to check that...) and various other scenarios, as you encounter them.
