## registerRemoteNotificationsRegistered()
Fired when the user registers for remote notifications. The handler will be invoked with an event holding the hex string representing the `deviceToken`

```js
Notifications.events().registerRemoteNotificationsRegistered((event: Registered) => {
  console.log(event.deviceToken);
});
```

## registerNotificationReceived()
Fired when a remote notification is received in foreground state. The handler will be invoked with an instance of [Notification](notification-object).
Should call completion function on iOS, will be ignored on Android.

```js
Notifications.events().registerNotificationReceived((notification: Notification, completion: (response: NotificationCompletion) => void) => {
  console.log(JSON.stringify(notification.data));

  // Calling completion on iOS with `alert: true` will present the native iOS inApp notification.
  completion({alert: true, sound: true, badge: false});
});
```

  console.log(event.code, event.localizedDescription, event.domain);
