Does this extension work for all versions of Android?

[arjun]

Also after a certain amount of time, I am getting a runtime error, I am using Android 12

Why is that?

[TIMAI2]

Do you get this in companion app when you switch to another app ?

Do your tests after building the app using the apk file

[arjun]

Yeah, I believe so, what should I do? Will this happen if I deploy my app to Google Play?

[Kumaraswamy]

Hi, this error can be safely ignored, will be suppressed in the next update.

[arjun]

What do you mean? Like after publishing to Google Play Store, but that requires a .aab file?

[arjun]

Will you post the next update on this channel?

Also, does this extension work for all Android Versions?

@arjun

aab file

No, you can choose to build an aab file for Google Play or also an apk file to install manually on your device without Google Play

Yes and Yes. When I like your post, that means I'm positive about it = confirmation. Please avoid making posts that does not add value to the topic, like simply pinging someone.

Thanks! Also, if I am understanding this right, we use the Itoo extension to run push notifications when the app is closed, how exactly would I implement it?

You can find this amazing resource here by Tim:

itoo Push Notification Examples for ALL!

[image] I am pleased to provide below a few examples of how you can use the excellent and remarkable itoo extension by @Kumaraswamy to generate push notifications for your apps, using dataChanged or timer events. These examples have all been tested on Android 15 (Google Pixel 8a) as compiled apps. Each example sticks very much to the basics, sending simple text notifications, and without any graphical enhancements, I will leave that up to your creativity. The examples are intended to show yo…

Thanks. Approximately when will you be able to release the next update? Your work is greatly appreciated. So, essentially Itoon and Melon Notification work hand-in-hand?

Yes, that's right, Melon notification bridges into Itoo for help in background execution.

I was talking about this block:

@Kumaraswamy

• Create a person object with the given details. To be used for the MessagingStyle and CreateMessage block.
  • personId: a unique person identifier
  • uri: optional string, mail or phone of the person, format:
    • A mailto: schema*
    • A tel: schema*

So I was wondering what the bot and important parameters are for since they are not shown in the documentation.

Nico

[Kumaraswamy]

If the person is a bot, i.e. an automated message from somewhere, set it to true, else false. importance is pretty self explanatory, if the person is important.

[nico]

Okay, noted!

[mustafaalbasel]

Alright that's good...ok will wait your update that weekend then, Thanks in advance

Version 1.2

• A new block to support notification tags. This allows you to use a string identifier along with an Id.

  

• Fixed inverted behaviour while using callOnMain property.

• Fix a possible companion error, that occurs while switching apps.
  Note: This error may still be present, changes needs to be also done on Itoo's code
