Excluding Apple Push Notification API from iOS-build
I'm creating a game for iOS, testing it via Apple TestFlight (the new Apple-version of it).
The app doesn't use Push Notifications.
None the less, I'm getting the following email every time sending out a new build via TestFlight:
iTunes Connect: Your app "" (Apple ID: ) has one or more issues
Dear developer,
We have discovered one or more issues with your recent delivery for "". Your delivery was successful, but you may wish to correct the following issues in your next delivery:
Missing Push Notification Entitlement - Your app appears to include API used to register with the Apple Push Notification service, but the app signature's entitlements do not include the "aps-environment" entitlement. If your app uses the Apple Push Notification service, make sure your App ID is enabled for Push Notification in the Provisioning Portal, and resubmit after signing your app with a Distribution provisioning profile that includes the "aps-environment" entitlement. See "Provisioning and Development" in the Local and Push Notification Programming Guide for more information. If your app does not use the Apple Push Notification service, no action is required. You may remove the API from future submissions to stop this warning. If you use a third-party framework, you may need to contact the developer for information on removing the API.
After you’ve corrected the issues, you can use Xcode or Application Loader to upload a new binary to iTunes Connect.
Regards,
The App Store team
This email goes out to every internal betatester on the entire iTunes Connect account! As we use it for different projects with different people, and to keep business partners updated as well, this is quite disastrous.
So the many post saying "Ignore it" doesn't apply here.
As I don't use Push Notifications, is it possible to exclude the Apple Push Notification API when building from Unity? Or comment out the parts of the code containing it after build? An postprocess maybe?
I would like to do something like this: https://unitycodes.wordpress.com/2015/02/06/missing-push-notification-entitlement/ - but I can't find all of the lines to comment out in the UnityAppController.mm-file... maybe the builder has been updated?
Any help - except "ignore it" ;-) - is most welcome!
this is still happening - I suppose Apple isn't annoyed enough about it to make it actually fail the submission (though, per the above, is certainly still annoying to developers & testers).
This is in case someone is using Unity 5.5.1f1 or above: Once Unity generates the XCode project, open it up and navigate to Classes/Preprocessor.h file. There you should find following line of code: #define UNITY_USES_REMOTE_NOTIFICATIONS 1 set it this to: #define UNITY_USES_REMOTE_NOTIFICATIONS 0 That should do the job.
Excellent solution and we're happy Unity puts this somewhere to edit.
Please check out my plugin: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/59160 which removes that warning after making your iOS builds.
If you are actually using Push Notifications, recreate your provisioning profile: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5719182/app-rejected-because-of-missing-push-notification-entitlement
If you do not use Push Notifications, see @Piotrku's answer.
