Android methods can throw

Return values

For convenience methods usually return the remaining number of notification, or null on unsuported platform. Refer to each method documentation.

Usage

Clear All Notifications

// Clear all notifications from the system tray
await FlutterNotificationsUtils.clearAll();

Clear by Thread ID (iOS)

// Clear notifications by thread ID
await FlutterNotificationsUtils.clearThread('chat_thread_123');

💡 By default this will set the badge count to the remaining number of notification, use the badgeCount parameter to force a value (0 for no badge)

Clear by Channel ID (Android)

// Clear notifications by channel ID
await FlutterNotificationsUtils.clearChannel('chat_channel');

Clear Thread and Channel

Utility method to handle iOS and Android at the same time

await FlutterNotificationsUtils.clearThreadOrChannel('id');

Clear by Tag (Android only)

// Clear notifications by tag with different matching modes
await FlutterNotificationsUtils.clearByTag('fcm_message');
await FlutterNotificationsUtils.clearByTag('test', mode: ClearByTagMode.contains);

Create Notification Channel (Android)

// Create a notification channel
await FlutterNotificationsUtils.createAndroidNotificationsChannel(
  channelId: 'chat_channel',
  channelName: 'Chat Notifications',
);

Get Notifications Count

// Get current notifications count
int count = await FlutterNotificationsUtils.getNotificationsCount();

⚠️ Note Android sometime returns a number which is 1 above. It believe those are invisble notifications.

Set App Badge Count (iOS only)

// Set the app badge count (iOS only)
await FlutterNotificationsUtils.setBadgeCount(5);
