Mobile Push Notifications API for PubNub Cocoa Objective-C SDK

Mobile Push Notifications feature enables developers to bridge native PubNub publishing with 3rd-party push notification services including Google Android FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging) and Apple iOS APNs (Apple Push Notification service).

By using the Mobile Push Notifications feature, developers can eliminate the need for developing, configuring, and maintaining additional server-side components for third-party push notification providers.
