Flutter show app icon badge on push notification












1














I'm looking for a way to show an app icon badge when a user receives a push notification.



I'm using the Firebase_messaging plugin for flutter for the handling of the push notifications and flutter_app_badger for the app icon badges.
But I want to combine the two so that the number is set on the icon without opening the app. Is it possible to make this happen? Or am I overlooking something obvious from the firebase_messaging plugin?



Sorry for the horrible explanation. I hope someone can help me with this issue.

  • The badge value is part of the notification payload. So you don't have anything to do in your app ( except requiring Badge permission while registering for notifications )

  • Do I need to add this in the notification payload? Or is every push notification added to the app icon badge?

  • You have to ass this in the payload. Look at developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/…, you will see "badge": 5

  • And this works the same as Android? Also how do I know which number to send? As far as I know there is no way to check if a push notification is opened right?
