Action Required: Apple Push Notification Service Server Certificate Update #985

**Iam using Flutter and Firebase with Firebase Admin SDK for PHP to send push-notifications.

I got this message from Apple, is there anything I need to do?**

Hello, -- We’re reaching out with a final reminder that the Certification Authority (CA) for Apple Push Notification service (APNs) is changing. APNs updated the server certificates in sandbox on January 21, 2025. APNs production server certificates will be updated on February 24, 2025. To continue using APNs without interruption, you’ll need to update your application’s Trust Store to include the new server certificate: SHA-2 Root: USERTrust RSA Certification Authority certificate. To ensure a smooth transition and avoid push notification delivery failures, please make sure that both old and new server certificates are included in the Trust Store before the cut-off date for each of your application servers that connect to sandbox and production. At this time, you don’t need to update the APNs SSL provider certificates issued to you by Apple. If you have any questions, please contact us. The Apple Developer Relations Team
