Push notifications are essential for re-engaging app users and boosting retention. Nativine integrates the official OneSignal Native Mobile SDK for Android (FCM) and iOS (APNs), allowing you to enable native push notifications with a single click in the App Builder.

1. Overview & Native Integration

Unlike web push notifications (which require the browser process to stay open and fail on iOS Safari), Nativine embeds native push handlers directly into your compiled mobile binary:

Android (Firebase Cloud Messaging): Automatically registers push tokens with FCM on app launch.
iOS (Apple Push Notification service): Handles iOS permission prompts, app badge counts, and background notification delivery.

2. No-Code App Builder Setup Guide

⚡ Nativine Builder Feature: OneSignal Push Notifications is integrated directly into the Nativine native app engine. Configure options natively in the App Builder under Add-ons & Plugins > Native UI.

Nativine App Builder Configuration

Open the Nativine App Builder at /web-to-app-converter-pro.
Click Add-ons & Plugins in the left builder menu and locate OneSignal Push Notifications.
Toggle OneSignal Push Notifications to ON (or click Enable), then click Config.
Configure your required settings, permissions descriptors, or target web parameters.
Click Save Config and navigate to the Builds tab to compile your mobile application.

3. Sending Notifications via Nativine Push Panel

Once your OneSignal App ID is saved in the App Builder, you don't need to log into external dashboards to send messages. Nativine provides a built-in Push Notification Panel directly inside your dashboard:

Built-in Push Manager: Draft, schedule, and send push notifications to Android & iOS users directly at /dashboard/push-notifications. See the detailed guide: Nativine Push Notification Panel →

4. Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)

Do I need to write any code to enable push notifications?

No. Nativine automatically embeds the native OneSignal SDK and registers device tokens in your compiled APK/AAB and IPA binaries upon build.

Why are notifications not delivering on iOS devices?

iOS push notifications require uploading your Apple APNs Key (.p8) or Push Certificate inside your OneSignal App Settings under the Apple iOS platform tab.
