## What it is
A set of open-source PHP classes for interacting with the Apple Push Notification service (APNs) to send push notifications to iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices, including a feedback provider. It supports the HTTP/2 protocol, TLS, enhanced notification formats, and includes sample push, feedback, and server code.

## Use cases
- send push notifications to iOS devices from PHP
- query Apple Push Notification feedback service for failed deliveries
- build a push notification server for an iPhone or iPad app
- send localized push notification payloads with custom properties
- migrate APNs sending to HTTP/2 with certificate-based auth

## When to choose
- your backend is PHP and you need to send APNs push notifications
- you want a self-contained library with feedback-service support and no heavy dependencies
- you need fine control over payload, expiry, and error responses in the enhanced APNs format

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library with active updates - the latest release is from 2021 and APNs APIs have evolved since
- you are sending pushes for Android or other platforms - this is Apple APNs only
- you prefer token-based (JWT) authentication or modern HTTP/2 client features not covered here
