I received the following ANRs & Crash report, couldn't figure out what is the error. Please help me.
I have a service to generate notifications. I hope that service module have a problem. I tested in an emulator and a real device but it is not generated in debug mode.

Heading of the ANR Clustor -

"Context.startForegroundService() did not then call Service.startForeground()"

Firebase error report -

B4X:
