This update addresses iOS PWA losing push subscriptions when the user is asked to re-authenticate via two-step. It's still not an ideal fix... the real fix I think is to not rely on a browser's willingness to re-subscribe to push without a user gesture. Right now it's only Safari that requires a user gesture, but I can see this changing with other browsers as it's a better thing to do from a security standpoint. Keeping the push subscription in the database and toggling it on/off on XenForo's side is going to be a much more reliable way to handle it.FWIW, XenForo unsubscribing a user from push notifications when they go into the admin area is also going to cause lost push subscriptions for Safari/iOS PWA users in default XenForo setup (addon already addressed that one previously).
