I am creating a web portal using laravel framework to which one of its functionality is to send remote push notification on IOS App remotely. Many article in the internet is saying that we need the pem certificate file not p12. Why?
My co-worker who is developing the IOS mobile app, says that he is using the p12 certificate to get the push notifications from the Azure portal and successfully send push notification.
Is this because that he is pushing the app locally? Meaning the app directly sends the notification? And I am pushing notifications remotely from the web portal? Is there any difference when pushing the app remotely and locally?
