iOS 9, legacy notification API no longer supported in Detox

[LeoNatan]

As of Detox 14.0.0, this is implemented.

In a future release, Detox will drop iOS 9 as a supported feature.

This change will also nean that legacy remote and local notifications handling API will no longer be supported in Detox. These APIs have been deprecated since iOS 10, and we believe we've given enough time to add support for it. Make sure you transition to the UserNotifications framework as soon as possible.

Please note that for React Native apps, PushNotificationIOS (RCTPushNotificationManager) is severely outdated and does not support these modern APIs. It is recommended to transition to a more modern solution. While it is sad that such an important app feature is let to stagnate so much by Facebook, it cannot be the concern of Detox. It is up to RN users to keep their apps up to date with the latest Apple APIs.

Our own React Native notifications solution plans to add support for these modern APIs soon. Detox will drop iOS 9 as soon as that change is implemented and used internally.

Apple is also dropping support for iOS 9 simulators with Xcode 11:
