Important update for Jabber for iOS Push
Notifications
• Apple plans to continue legacy VoIP APIs / keepalives for Cisco Jabber in
the next major iOS release
• Cisco still strongly recommends that customers upgrade to APNs
supporting infrastructure by June 2018, or as soon as possible thereafter:
• We do not know when Apple will remove the entitlements that allow Jabber to take advantage
of legacy VoIP APIs / keepalives
• Improved reliability and performance: APNs has the ability to wake Jabber even if Jabber has
been terminated by iOS
• Optimized and consistent user experience with cellular calls and other iOS applications
• Reduced impact of Jabber on the device battery & potentially improved performance of other
applications on the device
