feat: add ability to request the device token without showing permission
Description
Right now the only way to get the device token is to go through the permission prompt. This is not ideal if you want to support silent notification w/o asking for permission. This update allows you to achieve this.
Docs
If you want your app’s remote notifications to display alerts, play sounds, or perform other user-facing actions, you must request authorization to do so using the requestAuthorization(options:completionHandler:) method of UNUserNotificationCenter. If you do not request and receive authorization for your app's interactions, the system delivers all remote notifications to your app silently.
That's a good addition, and I require this functionality. Do you have any updates regarding this?
@yousrasd Alternatively you can throw this in your AppDelegate:
UIApplication.shared.registerForRemoteNotifications()
