🔔 MelonNotification • Various styled notifications + Itoo

[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 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: [image] This is a simple notification, works without issues, is generated via the foreground service as well: [image] This is a notification with an action button, it doesn't show up, is gen…

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?

Hello, I'm building this small app that receives data from an Arduino motion sensor. When motion is detected a NOTIFICATION is sent to mobile phone.
I'm bit of a beginner to this.
can someone please give me tips.

Im not entirely sure if notifications blocks in "detected" case are placced correctly

[Taifun]

Always fill all socketls
Ask for permission during Screen Initialize and create the channel there

Try the example project from the first post of this thread to better understand how the extension is working

Can it be used to show music notification?

[Salvatore_Oliva]

Ok, so let's put the question in a different way: by Melon Notification extension, is it possible just to update the message of an existing notification, without forcibly raising a new notification?

@Salvatore_Oliva

is it possible just to update the message of an existing notification

Plsase see the documentation in post 1

• Posts the notification with the given Id. You may also use this to update a notification.
  If id is less than 1, a random Id will be choosen.

Alright, addressing my issue.

So if you have an Itoo foreground task which sends notifications (syncs from web using a timer), you need to create an ITOO INTENT, standard intent will NOT work when posting the notification using an Itoo foreground service.

Now my next question is, how to assign custom notification sound to the notification?

Also, another issue I have discovered is that while on Android 11, tapping on the notification with an attached intent opens the app, it doesn't do so with Android 16. Not sure about previous Android versions.

[Kumaraswamy]

Hi, could you please post a sample project that I can quickly look into?

---

@xwtk

it doesn't do so with Android 16.

The extension has been tested until Android 15. It would take some time, before Android 16 is available as an update to my device before I can look into the issues.

[xwtk]

You want a sample project showcasing my solution? Just making sure you understood it right. I meant that if you use Itoo foreground service and want your notification to have an intent you should use CreateItooIntent instead of CreateIntent component for the Notification Intent parameter. I guess this has something to do with Android's security policy changes.

I am running Android 16 beta, so I don't expect you to take a look at it now just documenting.

Also any info about custom notification sound?

Oh opps, that was my dizzy over look

@xwtk

Will consider it for the next update

[xwtk]

@Kumaraswamy how can i make the button close itoo and app?

[Taifun]

You could adjust this example to your needs

MelonNotification • Various styled notifications + Itoo

It is just to tell the Android system that whether or not clicking on the action shows the user interface. It does not add any additional functionality on its own. No! It has been programed to instead start a Itoo procedure in background: [blocks(44)] [blocks(45)] As you can see we are calling createItooIntent. So when you click Button 1, it will change the Label's text to tell you which button has been clicked: [blocks(46)] But, if you want clicking on the Button to open up the user …
