Is it possible to open the iOS app by means of a remote notification?

I need to open the app and show the user that a request is coming his way. Based on that, he may receive a phone call from my server (not VoIP though).

My requirement is similar to what happens during a VoIP call. Just that we won't necessarily be using VoIP. At least not right now.

No. User has to click on notification to open the app.

You can not open the app directly on the remote notification receiving.

No, iOS doesn't permit opening apps via remote notification.

What you get is the user can select a notification on their lock screen to unlock the phone then open the app.
