Android did not receive remote notifications when app is in foreground

See original GitHub issue

Bug

App is not receiving any remote notifications when app is in foreground state. Background remote notifications are working correctly.

I’ve also set this to true in manifest file:

<!-- Change the value to true to enable pop-up for in foreground (remote-only, for local use ignoreInForeground) -->
        <meta-data  android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.notification_foreground"
                    android:value="true"/>

Steps To Reproduce

Install app on real device
Get device token and send test message from firebase while app is in foreground …

Describe what you expected to happen:

App should receive notification even in foreground if we specify the line in manifest

Ps. I’m using the example app for now, so the configs are same

Hi @Dallas62, It works now I was just missing the following part: <service android:name="com.dieam.reactnativepushnotification.modules.RNPushNotificationListenerService" android:exported="false" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" /> </intent-filter> </service>
