static val GROUP_ALERT_CHILDREN: Int
Constant for Builder.setGroupAlertBehavior(int)
, meaning that the summary notification in a group should be silenced (no sound or vibration) even if they are posted to a NotificationChannel
that has sound and/or vibration. Use this constant to mute this notification if this notification is a group summary.
For example, you might want to use this constant if only the children notifications in your group have content and the summary is only used to visually group notifications rather than to alert the user that new information is available.
Value: 2
GROUP_ALERT_SUMMARY
static val GROUP_ALERT_SUMMARY: Int
Constant for Builder.setGroupAlertBehavior(int)
, meaning that all children notification in a group should be silenced (no sound or vibration) even if they are posted to a NotificationChannel
that has sound and/or vibration. Use this constant to mute this notification if this notification is a group child. This must be applied to all children notifications you want to mute.

image (stenciled in white) atop a field of this color. Alpha components are ignored.
contentIntent
var contentIntent: PendingIntent!
The intent to execute when the expanded status entry is clicked. If this is an activity, it must include the android.content.Intent#FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK

extras
var extras: Bundle!
Additional semantic data to be carried around with this Notification.

APIs, and are intended to be used by android.service.notification.NotificationListenerService

The heads-up notification view is determined by the inputs to Notification.Builder
; a custom RemoteViews can optionally be supplied with Notification.Builder.setCustomHeadsUpContentView(RemoteViews)
.

See Also
number
var number: Int
The number of events that this notification represents. For example, in a new mail notification, this could be the number of unread messages. The system may or may not use this field to modify the appearance of the notification. Starting with android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#O
, the number may be displayed as a badge icon in Launchers that support badging.
priority
varpriority: Int
Deprecated: use NotificationChannel.getImportance()

Relative priority for this notification. Priority is an indication of how much of the user's valuable attention should be consumed by this notification. Low-priority notifications may be hidden from the user in certain situations, while the user might be interrupted for a higher-priority notification. The system will make a determination about how to interpret this priority when presenting the notification.

is more likely to be presented as a heads-up notification.
Value is

, android.app.Notification#PRIORITY_MIN
, android.app.Notification#PRIORITY_HIGH
, or android.app.Notification#PRIORITY_MAX

and VISIBILITY_PUBLIC
.

.
visibility
var visibility: Int
Sphere of visibility of this notification, which affects how and when the SystemUI reveals the notification's presence and contents in untrusted situations (namely, on the secure lockscreen and during screen sharing). The default level, VISIBILITY_PRIVATE
, behaves exactly as notifications have always done on Android: The notification's icon
and tickerText
(if available) are shown in all situations, but the contents are only available if the device is unlocked for the appropriate user and there is no active screen sharing session. A more permissive policy can be expressed by VISIBILITY_PUBLIC
; such a notification can be read even in an "insecure" context (that is, above a secure lockscreen or while screen sharing with a remote viewer). To modify the public version of this notification—for example, to redact some portions—see Builder.setPublicVersion(Notification)
. Finally, a notification can be made VISIBILITY_SECRET
, which will suppress its icon and ticker until the user has bypassed the lockscreen.
Value is android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_PUBLIC
, android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_PRIVATE
, or android.app.Notification#VISIBILITY_SECRET
when
var when: Long
A timestamp related to this notification, in milliseconds since the epoch. Default value: Now
. Choose a timestamp that will be most relevant to the user. For most finite events, this corresponds to the time the event happened (or will happen, in the case of events that have yet to occur but about which the user is being informed). Indefinite events should be timestamped according to when the activity began. Some examples:
- Notification of a new chat message should be stamped when the message was received.
- Notification of an ongoing file download (with a progress bar, for example) should be stamped when the download started.
- Notification of a completed file download should be stamped when the download finished.
- Notification of an upcoming meeting should be stamped with the time the meeting will begin (that is, in the future).
- Notification of an ongoing stopwatch (increasing timer) should be stamped with the watch's start time.
- Notification of an ongoing countdown timer should be stamped with the timer's end time.
android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#N
and above, this time is not shown anymore by default and must be opted into by using android.app.Notification.Builder#setShowWhen(boolean)
