  I have similar issue and also try both Dev Provision Profile / Production Provision Profile each one with the corresponding p12 (sandbox/production), the azure hub register the device but when I sent the notification only my android devices recived the notification.

  In my case I used a SharedListen on the device and Full on Backend WebApi that send the notification.

  /Shared
  INotificationHubsService
          public interface INotificationHubsService
              {
                  string PnsHandler { get; set; }
  
                  void Init(object context);
  
                  void RegisterOrUpdate();
  
              }
  

  /iOS
  public class NotificationHubsService : INotificationHubsService
  {
  private readonly SBNotificationHub _hub;

              public NotificationHubsService()
              {
                  // register device in notification hubs
                  string hubName = Constants.K_AZ_HUB_NAME;
                  string hubConnectionString = Constants.K_AZ_HUB_CONNECTION;
  
                  _hub = new SBNotificationHub(hubConnectionString, hubName);
              }
  
              public string PnsHandler { get; set; }
  
              public void Init(object context)
              {
  
              }
  
              public void RegisterOrUpdate()
              {
                  var settingsService = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<ISettingsService>();
                  // create tags if you want
                  var tags = new NSSet(settingsService.Tags.ToArray());
  
                  //PnsHandler = ((AppDelegate)UIApplication.SharedApplication.Delegate).DeviceToken;
  
                  _hub.UnregisterAllAsync(PnsHandler, (error) => {
                      if (error != null)
                      {
                          Console.WriteLine("Error calling Unregister: {0}", error.ToString());
                          return;
                      }
  
                      _hub.RegisterNativeAsync(PnsHandler, tags, (errorCallback) => {
                          if (errorCallback != null)
                              Console.WriteLine("RegisterNativeAsync error: " + errorCallback.ToString());
                      });
                  });
              }
          }
  

  /Backend-WebApi
  private async Task SendNotificationAsync(string message, string type, string id, string tag)
  {
  try
  {
  Microsoft.Azure.NotificationHubs.NotificationOutcome outcome = null;
  NotificationHubClient hub = NotificationHubClient.CreateClientFromConnectionString(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MS_NotificationHubConnectionString"].ConnectionString, ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MS_NotificationHubName"]);
  try
  {
  // Windows 8.1 / Windows Phone 8.1
  var toast = @"" + message + "";
  outcome = await hub.SendWindowsNativeNotificationAsync(toast, tag);
  }
  catch { }

                          try
                          {
                              // iOS
                              var alert = "{\"aps\":{\"alert\":\"" + message + "\", \"title\":\"" + type + "\", \"id\": \"" + id + "\"}}";
                              outcome = await hub.SendAppleNativeNotificationAsync(alert, tag);
                          }
                          catch {  }
  
                          try
                          {
                              // Android
                              var notif = "{ \"data\" : {\"message\":\"" + message + "\",\"title\":\"" + type + "\",\"id\":\"" + id + "\"}}";
                              outcome = await hub.SendGcmNativeNotificationAsync(notif, tag);
                          }
                          catch { }
                      }
                      catch (Exception ex)
                      {
                          Services.Log.Error(ex);
                          throw ex;
                      }
                  }

  I have all the code for the Evolve app here: http://github.com/xamarinhq/app-evolve that might be good reference.

  Hi, I need to register for push notifications and later add tags to my registration. Documentation is a nightmare, I'm still confused if I can do this operation on the client or I need to add some custom methods on my backend api.

  From the code above it seems I can do it on the client using NotificationHubClient.CreateClientFromConnectionString(...); what library/package is it? I'm using the Microsoft.Azure.Mobile.Client nuget package in my droid app (Xamarin.Forms), but there are no methods to manage tags.

  Thanks,
  David
