We implemented a chat application in android ,when user don't want to get any notifications,
he will turn off the notification in settings of the app ,
but how to get the "status of the notification"(on/off) in android programming in order to prevent sending notifications to those users who turned off ,in order to save the charges which will apply to send notifications to users....
after I had searched a lot.... I found solution to get the Notification status of our app here:
Use
NotificationManagerCompat.from(context).areNotificationsEnabled()
Use NotificationManagerCompat.from(Context).areNotificationsEnabled(), from support library, to check if notifications are blocked on API 19+. The versions below API 19 will return true (notifications are enabled).
For more details go through this link :get NotificationStatus based on version

I am making a push notification feature using reactnative push notification.
If I create a channel according to the reactnative push notification official statement, I can control it only when I enter the notification category in the application information of the application.
Can I use the reactnative push notifictaion library to control when I create a component within the app like Youtubemusic (below Image) and implement the push setting ON OFF control function? It doesn't seem to be in the official documentation.
I'm trying to implement this feature within the app, but I'm curious about how it's implemented in practice!
i'm not using local notification just remote
Basically, you have 2 way to achieve this: on backend side or on frontend side.
Backend
Send to backend current state of toggle settings inside your app. When backend want to send push to client, it is internally checks state of this toggle and make a decision send or not.
Frontend
All your push notifications must be send as data only and with high priority (contentAvailable: true, priority: 'high').
After that, only mobile app will control showing of push notifications, because data only push not display anything, just trigger mobile app about new message.
So, when your frontend app receive new push message, it check current user settings and make decision display it or not.
I am using Expo to build an app that will pop up a notification with custom sound and vibration when triggered remotely. The alarm/vibration would play until its dismissed by the user or it times out (say after 1-2 mins) .
Example use case would be when a partner needs my immediate help with baby, they can press a button the app and that would send signal to backend server which would then trigger the notification with alarm on the app at the other end. When the notification is dismissed, an acknowledgement message is sent with Yes or No type message. If the notification times out, then another message is sent like "no response".
Key point to note is that when the app is fully closed, the notification should still be able to pop up.
From my limited understanding , expo notification or push notifications in general cannot achieve this as they don't allow us to create notifications that directly open the app. Even a solution which works like phone or video calling apps (which open when someone calls you ) could work.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Many Thanks!
I looked up expo push notifications but they are limited in terms of customising the notifications.
I am using react native and trying to add push notification.
My application need push notification because of chatting. I just need push notification to appear whenever the user receives chat message.
I've searched couple of libraries about push notification and found out firebase and react-native-push-notification.
Which one is proper library for this case and please tell me if there is other better way to solve this problem.
We're using invertase firebase notification library which is working so far better without any issues.
You'll get almost all the options which you needed for push notification customization like badges, etc.
I have been reading the documentation pages for Notifications for Android devices but I want to build and display notifications on an Android-TV. I have used several apps in the AndroidTV and none of them shows notifications, instead sometimes they appear in the recommendations bar,which leads me to believe that it may not be possible to display notifications on this family of devices.
My end goal is to dispatch a Heads-up notification (priority flag set to MAX) so it can be shown regardless of what the user is doing.
Can someone help me to achieve this, maybe pointing me to some more specific docs?
UPDATE I have found this application that displays notifications, but I cannot understand how it works. Is it possible that it is mimicking notifications without working with Android's API?
I also think notification will appear as "recommendation" and not appear as "notification".
For the Notifications for Android TV app, I guess it is using custom designed Toast instead of Notification.
I have developed a desktop application which displays ToastNotifications while the user is in Metro Mode. When clicked it will bring the user back to the desktop mode where a standard desktop notification is presented.
This all works fine except when Windows is in QUNS_QUIET_TIME. The desktop notifications do not get displayed as expected, but the ToastNotfications still get displayed. My client wishes for the ToastNotifications to not display during Quiet Time.
The code calls SHQueryUserNotificationState which returns a QUERY_USER_NOTIFICATION_STATE enumeration. The provided link says the following:
Note that during quiet time, if the user is in one of the other blocked modes (QUNS_NOT_PRESENT, QUNS_BUSY, QUNS_PRESENTATION_MODE, or QUNS_RUNNING_D3D_FULL_SCREEN) SHQueryUserNotificationState returns only that value, and does not report QUNS_QUIET_TIME.
This is what I am experiencing. The call to SHQueryUserNotificationState is returning QUNS_APP (A Windows Store app is running.) and not QUNS_QUIET_TIME.
Does anyone know of another way to determine if QUNS_QUIET_TIME is in effect or a way to force the toast to respect quiet time?
Desktop notifications use different settings than toast notifications. You can find toast notification settings here. When a user sets notifications to one hour from Windows 8 Settings | Notifications, the app will not be able set toast notification. Try the example "sending toast notifications from a desktop" here (either C++ code or C# code).
