In background running android app sending notification

[MathiasH]

hi

that the user sees informationin his notification bar at top?

generell is there a posibility that my app runs in background?

I have the same problem.
The program calls correctly the notification api but I see the notifications only if I restore the program.
If minimized doesn't work immediately but when it is full screen I see the notification immediately.
Have you found the solution?

Hi,
yes you can, by using this plugin for local push notifications that works for iOS & Android.

You can find a Github example here.

And here's a sample QML code:

import QtQuick 2.1
import QtQuick.Window 2.1

import VPlayPlugins.notification 1.0

Window {
  NotificationManager {
	id: notificationManager
  }

  Notification {
	id: idleNotification

	notificationId: "idleNotification"
	message: "Anyone here? Haven't seen you in a while..."
	timeInterval: (24 * 60 * 60) // in seconds
  }

  Component.onCompleted: {
	// Cancel old notification if scheduled
	notificationManager.cancelNotification(idleNotification.notificationId)
	// Schedule idleNotification
	notificationManager.scheduleNotification(idleNotification)
  }
}

Cheers, Chris
