Also, you will need to add some code because the iOS 8 push notifcation code is a bit different than the iOS 7. Updating the code and framework will enable push on devices using iOS 8 for your app. Note: I was experiencing a freezing issue at the launch of my app after someone restarted their device because Parse was trying to register the device, but did have the proper code to do that causing the freezing. This was beforing updating the framework and code. If you do the steps below your Parse notifcations will be working normally again. Steps: 1. Log into Parse.com 2. Go to https://parse.com/apps/quickstart 3. Select Push, iOS, existing project 4. Follow the steps.
