How can I send push notifications to iOS without writing my own application? [closed]

Tags:

I would like to send push notifications to iOS-based devices, but I don't want to write my own app. From what I've gathered so far, to send a push notification using the Apple Push Notification Service I need to use the SSL certificates that were used to sign an application.

Basically, what I'm looking for is the iOS equivalent of Notify My Android, an app that you install on your Android device that has a web service with a simple HTTP API for sending notifications.

Do push notifications work when app is closed iOS?

Apple does not offer a way to handle a notification that arrives when your app is closed (i.e. when the user has fully quit the application or the OS had decided to kill it while it is in the background). If this happens, the only way to handle the notification is to wait until it is opened by the user.
