expo notifications not popping up – React native

I tried to program a local notification by expo, following the code provide on:
here – docs.expo.dev

The problem: the notification simple don’t appear in my phone – IOS. When I click into the button, nothing happens.

My App.js file:

import { StyleSheet, Button, View } from 'react-native';
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';

Notifications.setNotificationHandler({
  handleNotification: async () => {
    return {
      shouldPlaySound: false,
      shouldSetBadge: false,
      shouldShowAlert: true,
    };
  }
});

export default function App() {
  function scheduleNotificationHandler() {
    Notifications.scheduleNotificationAsync({
      content: {
        title: 'My first local notification',
        body: 'This is the body of the notification.',
      },
      trigger: {
        seconds: 5
      }
    });
  }

  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <Button
        title="Schedule Notification"
        onPress={scheduleNotificationHandler}
      />
    </View>
  );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    backgroundColor: '#fff',
    alignItems: 'center',
    justifyContent: 'center',
  },
});

Could anybody help me? Thanks for your attention.

I think the problem can be in the permissions of my device.

    So, after some time of research, i find an answer for my problem...

    import { StatusBar } from "expo-status-bar";
import { StyleSheet, Button, View } from "react-native";
import * as Notifications from "expo-notifications";
 
Notifications.setNotificationHandler({
  handleNotification: async () => {
    return {
      shouldPlaySound: false,
      shouldSetBadge: false,
      shouldShowAlert: true,
    };
  },
});

const allowsNotificationsAsync = async () => {
  const settings = await Notifications.getPermissionsAsync();
  return (
    settings.granted ||
    settings.ios?.status === Notifications.IosAuthorizationStatus.PROVISIONAL
  );
};
 
const requestPermissionsAsync = async () => {
  return await Notifications.requestPermissionsAsync({
    ios: {
      allowAlert: true,
      allowBadge: true,
      allowSound: true,
      allowAnnouncements: true,

  });
};

    Notifications.scheduleNotificationAsync({

    I think the problem is with the permissions.
    If you go to this link expo_page_notifications, there is a guide to do that.
    This is the code:

    registerForPushNotificationsAsync = async () => {
 if (Device.isDevice) {
   const { status: existingStatus } = await Notifications.getPermissionsAsync();
   let finalStatus = existingStatus;
   if (existingStatus !== 'granted') {
     const { status } = await Notifications.requestPermissionsAsync();
     finalStatus = status;
   }
   if (finalStatus !== 'granted') {
     alert('Failed to get push token for push notification!');
     return;
   }
   const token = (await Notifications.getExpoPushTokenAsync()).data;
   console.log(token);
   this.setState({ expoPushToken: token });
 } else {
   alert('Must use physical device for Push Notifications');
 }

 if (Platform.OS === 'android') {
   Notifications.setNotificationChannelAsync('default', {
     name: 'default',
     importance: Notifications.AndroidImportance.MAX,
     vibrationPattern: [0, 250, 250, 250],
     lightColor: '#FF231F7C',
   });
 }
};
