If your app is not running in the foreground it should show up automatically. If your app is running then there is an event that is triggered and you will need to implement code to show something yourself! This can be done by displaying an alert or maybe a toast or snackbar.

@@jfversluis I was not sure I could upgrade to 2.1. Thanks, I will do that.

[@jfversluis]

You should be able to but I don’t know your project so it’s impossible to tell :) hope it works!

How do I assign an IconName to Android options?

[@jfversluis]

You should be able to simply set it like here: github.com/thudugala/Plugin.LocalNotification/blob/master/Sample/NuGet/LocalNotification.Sample/MainPage.xaml.cs#L44 Is it not working for you?

[@anandshindey]

@@jfversluis no, it does not work. Also I did run the sample as well. No icon on notification.

[@jfversluis]

Report it on that same repo, might be a bug then :)

Thanks Gerald for sharing this video. Do you know how to clear the badge from the iOS app icon once you get notification and open the iOS app? Testing this comment in youtube hopefully spam does not caugh it :crossingfingers: Note: On android the badge gets removed automatically.

[@jfversluis]

You can set: UIApplication.SharedApplication.ApplicationIconBadgeNumber = 0; You will have to do this in iOS specific code though

Hola, no existe la propiedad "NotifyTime" :(

[@jfversluis]

The plug-in has been updated in the meanwhile. I think there is now a property called Schedule that has the info for scheduling a notification

[@waldosoto4353]

@@jfversluis muchas gracias, revise los comentarios y después la documentación y me ha servido de gran ayuda, saludos

[@addtyu6176]

How do you cancel scheduled notifications???????????????????????????

[@jfversluis]

I think you will have to give the NotificationRequest a unique id and then whenever you create another notification with that same id and a date in the past you will expire it automatically :)

[@benboateng1820]

bro how do u add sound

[@jfversluis]

The NotificationRequest has a Sound property, you can use that

[@benboateng1820]

@@jfversluis yh i know but i want to no how to implement it

[@jfversluis]

I don’t know what to tell you tbh :) add the sound file and set the property to the filename. I think the plug-in repository has a sample that does this.

[@nicolasvictorion1178]

First of all thank you but, It doesn't work for me "This package has been deprecated as it is legacy and is no longer maintained"
