Does the example app ask for post notification permission?

I tested the aia example

@Kumaraswamy

Example project featuring all notification styles MlemonNotification.aia (830.3 KB)

I will check the permission

Edit: i check the permission and i found in the example aia the block of ask for permission not added, so i add it and it is work fine for me, but they not work on companion it is crached

@mahmoud_hooda

but they not work on companion

Yes, because the companion app does not offer post notification permission in the manifest

I would be very glad if you would add the tag support, would be really nice to manage the individual notifications without having to create a separate channel, or at least be able to assign a string identifier to the channel.

This is the Channel creation block, executed via the Itoo foreground service:

This is a simple notification, works without issues, is generated via the foreground service as well:

This is a notification with an action button, it doesn't show up, is generated via the foreground service as well:

I should also tell you that I tried using the intent parameter directly, without the action button, didn't work as well, I tried directly linking the CreateIntent block, link the CreateIntent block to a procedure, and link the procedure to the intent parameter or the action button, didn't work either.

If I just use the simple build block, without the intent, works properly.

how to create count down notification work in background using melon notification

[Spicy_Topics]

read this?

Understood. Thanks. I made the simple Notification call with only one function because if you want to call notifications with different texts every time you need to build all over again using multiple functions. I suppose something similar can be done for adding buttons in notifications but it's more complicated. [image]

[xwtk]

I have tried that method, has not worked.

how to create count down notification work in background

What have you tried?
Start with a working example in the foreground, then follow the usage tips of itoo Open Source • Background Tasks: Itoo 🚀 and try to get it running in the background and if you got stuck, post a screenshot of your relevant blocks

Usage

• Before you try to do something with Itoo, first get it working normally.
• Do not use global variables, or try to access/set them.
• Do not use user interface components such as Label, TextBox or even Notifier since there is no interface in background.
• You cannot use Tiny DB, alternatively you are supposed to make use of the similar storage features Store/Fetch property blocks offered by this extension.
• For the main background procedure, you need to include an argument "x".
• You cannot use normal Event blocks in background, use RegisterEvent block to listen to component events.
• You cannot run more than one foreground or background service.
• A component does not get created until you touch any of its block.

this is my tried, it is not worked

[Taifun]

@mahmoud_hooda

it is not worked

Yes, because you are using a global variable

@Taifun

Do not use global variables, or try to access/set them.

Use StoreProperty/FetchProperty methods instead
Also set the timer interval before registering the Timer event

It working but time not updated

[Taifun]

@mahmoud_hooda

but time not updated

Can you post the blocks of your

@Taifun

working example in the foreground

EDIT: you also might wamt to look into this example

Open Source • Background Tasks: Itoo

Hello, Thank you for your suggestions, here below my example app sorted out accordingly: [example-2] Unfortunately, even though I set MelonNotification AlertOnce property to true, each time I am going to update the notification message in the Clock Timer event, notification alert sound keeps triggering and it is quite annoying. How can I make the notification silent or, at least, make it trigger the alert only the first time? Thank you all.

which updates the permanent notification regularly

[Kumaraswamy]

Why are you using global variables? Variable global timer is not initialized in the background... It can be null or cause a crash.

[xwtk]

Hey, any idea regarding the blocks I sent?

[Kumaraswamy]

Hi, could you please post your .aia file so I can check later? Also before running it in background, does it run properly without it?

[xwtk]

Sorry, cannot post the aia file as it contains sensitive information. Building a simple notification works, let me highlight that the notifications are called by Itoo via the foreground service. However if I try to add an action button or set the intent for the notification, the notification simply doesn't come up.

Also to note, I have tested on Android 16 beta and Android 15 stable release devices (Pixel 7).

Create a test project and provide a screenshot of your relevant blocks

I have provided a screenshot of the blocks used earlier. Maybe you haven't seen it?

I have seen those
Sorry, I can't help with that
Provide a test project, so @Kumaraswamy can check

The question is

@Kumaraswamy

Also before running it in background, does it run properly without it?
