The ios notify platform enables sending push notifications to the Home Assistant iOS app.

The 'ios' component will automatically load the notify service. The service component can be called using service: notify.ios_<your_device_ID>. Your device ID can be found in the ios.conf file in your configuration folder. The file is compressed JSON. You can view it easier by copying the file contents and pasting them into JSONLint.

In this example, the device ID is robbiet480_7plus, so the notify service to use is notify.ios_robbiet480_7plus:

{"devices":{"robbiet480_7plus":{"app":{"bundleIdentifer":"io.robbie.HomeAssistant","versionNumber":1,"buildNumber":53},"pushSounds":[],"permissions":["location"],"deviceId":"robbiet480_7plus","device":{"type":"iPhone 7 Plus","systemName":"iOS","systemVersion":"10.3","permanentID":"AB9F02FE-6AC6-47B8-ADEB-5DD87B489156","localizedModel":"iPhone","name":"Robbie's iPhone 7 Plus","model":"iPhone"},"battery":{"state":"Full","level":100},"pushToken":"SECRET","pushId":"SECRET"}}}

You can find more information in the Basic Notifications documentation.
