My scenario:

I have an app that sends push notifications about articles on a daily basis. The iOS app has three UNNotificationActions attached to the notification -- one to read the article, one to share the article, and one to save the article for later. The read/share article actions are foreground actions, while the save article action happens in the background.

I also have a watchOS version of the app that displays a few top stories, with an option to save for later in the iOS app.

My issue is this: I only want the watch to display the save article background action. The other two UNNotificationActions don't apply to the watchOS app (and wouldn't make sense). Is there a way to hide those two action on the watch? I figured it would be easy, but I don't see any easy way to do this, so I feel like I must be missing something obvious...

For example, the News app has three notification actions on iOS, two foreground actions. On watchOS, only one background action shows up.

Don't know if you've managed to solve this on your own, but since watchOS 5.0 you have access to WKUserNotificationInterfaceController's

// notificationActions can only be changed once didReceiveNotification: has been called @available(watchOS 5.0, *) open var notificationActions: [UNNotificationAction]

As the comment states you can remove your iOS specific actions inside your func didReceive(_ notification: UNNotification implementation.

My solution next:

- (void)didReceiveNotification:(UNNotification *)notification {
  [super didReceiveNotification:notification];
  self.notificationActions = nil;
}
