Apologies for the delay in the response - we'll be updating our support site shortly, in order to improve the tracking and overall support experience. If you ever don't hear back on an issue for a couple of days, please be sure to email us at devrel@playfab.com. We make a point of answering all questions within a couple of business days.

Since you're getting good responses to both registering and sending the Push messages, we're getting good responses from SNS concerning sending the message. Are you able to get Push Notifications from other apps on the device? Have you tried this with any other devices? Does this reproduce both when the application is running and when it's not?

yes, we have try it, and for those 3 devices, we never get the push notification even we always got good responses from playfab, but in other iphone devices, they got the push notification.

also in all my android devices, the messages still not shown, even we have enabled the push notification permission in each our devices, because if not we will never get the push notification right?

Hey Dragongamestudio,

I will take a look and see if I can reproduce these issues. So far I have not seen any issues like this on iOS.

Stay tuned here for updates later in the week.

okay, thank you :)

try to register one device with more than 1 different playfab id

thank you, Chandra

Hi Chandra,

That, we can specifically say won't work. A Device ID cannot be linked to more than one PlayFab account. If you try to register the ID to a second account, you'll get the "DeviceAlreadyLinked" error. If you're just signing in with it, you're still singing into the first account.

"Logging out" of PlayFab really just amounts to deleting the Session Ticket for the player. Without a Session Ticket, the user would have to sign into the PlayFab service, meaning it could be any account the user desires.

For your Push issue, do you mind if we create a test user in your title, so that we can test it out directly?

okay,
i mean what if our player log out from his device and log in again with another id in same device,
is that possible the seccond account to have the push notification because you said that "A Device ID cannot be linked to more than one PlayFab account."

sure, just create it

That depends upon your login method. If you give them the option to sign in with Facebook, for instance, it's possible for multiple users to share the same device. If your only sign in mechanism is Device ID, then two users cannot share the same device (if it is using the same Device ID for both users, which for phone devices would be the case).

While not extensively tested on iOS, I just completed a testing app for CloudScript and Push Notifications, as well a sample for how to connect into our latest Android plugin.

Let me know if you have any further questions or issues.

Additional documents and samples are in the works, but until they are complete, contact us and we can set up a walkthrough of the entire back-end configuration for either Android or iOS devices.

Happy developing,

Zac
