I am sending Push Notifications on my iOS application from Firebase console and the notifications are delivered however the Notification section in Firebase does not show Open Rate(Mean how many notifications were open out of total sent ). Why is that happening ?
I think gcm is not related here, he said he is working with ios, not android. I am experiencing the same behaviour with my iOS app here!

I'm using Firebase to send notifications to my React Native frontend. Notifications come through fine when the app is closed, but user's don't receive the notification while they are inside the app. How can I force the notification through every time?
the notifications are received but not showing when the app is open (foreground) you will have to use this or similar solution to show the notification on the screen in this case.

I have used it on android and iOS with no problems.
You can't "force" them but you can handle them
Is it possible to identify whether a particular push notification message was delivered to a particular token via Firebase Cloud Messaging? And, if so, is it possible to do so via an API call or by listening to some callback?
I know that I can look at aggregate statistics in the console and even segment those statistics through analytics tags, but cannot find a way to get more discrete information.
I also know that the API will synchronously respond if a token is invalid but the process by which Apple and Google invalidate tokens is a bit opaque (to me) and doesn't help if someone simply turned off push notifications for my app.
Thanks!

If someone turned off push notification – you can check it with code
Swift ios check if remote push notifications are enabled in ios9 and ios10
Android app - detect if app push notification is off
But user can be offline, or APNs / Firebase service – can get some problems and your notification will be drop. You can check delivery status with some code in iOS and Android applications.
If you need check, delivery status for some push you can make push notification extension (in iOS). For send status about delivered notification in your API. More info about push notification extension.

Received (available only on Android devices) — The data message or
notification message has been received by the app. This data is
available when the receiving Android device has FCM SDK 18.0.1 or
higher installed.
I was able to integrate Firebase Push Notification into my android/ios app. My apps started getting international users and my question is Firebase Push Notification still works fine for them?
Is there anything i need to do to support Firebase Push Notification internationally?
No extra implementation needed. The notifications target the devices. So long as the device meet the pre-requisite to receive a message (just a stable connection) then it should be able to receive the sent notifications.
I am sending push notifications using Flutter's firebase_messaging package and I send them in the firebase console. When the app is in the background or when it is closed, I am receiving the notifications, however, when the app is in the foreground it is not working. Please tell me if I need to integrate Javascript to make this feature work, and please reference a resource that I can use in order to figure out how I can integrate Javascript with fcm as I haven't found a way to do this with flutter.
I figured out that someone can use the flutter local notifications plugin so that when the push notification is sent and the app is on the foreground, normally no notification would be delivered to the system tray, but using the flutter local notifications plugin, it would be possible to send a local notification when the app is on the foreground.
To Understand better.
Have a look into this table.
https://pub.dev/packages/firebase_messaging#receiving-messages
It states that when your Android or iOS Application is in foreground, OnMessage callback is called if you are sending notification payload or data payload as notification body.
You are receiving notifications when your app is in background because, when an app is in background notification is send to system tray and OS (Android or iOS) handle it for you. And your app is launched when you click on notification from system tray.
When your app is in foreground you have to catch notification payload in onMessage and handle it explicitly, you can create local notification in this case.
Push notification not receiving to my IOS device which is working fine for android. I am using Firebase to send notification for android and IOS, I have configured the google-service-info.plist file to my Firebase account and enabled push notification in Xcode before taking the build. But I am not able to receive the notification, is there any additional configuration that I required to change for IOS? Why am not getting push notification which works fine by default for android?
I am able to get device token of IOS that am using this token to trigger notification.
if you are still having this problem with ios push notification. This is how i solved it.
Login into your apple developer account and create an APNs Authentication key (.p8 file).
Then upload it to your firebase console in the cloud messaging tab.
