Checking notification existence

[azDroid]

Hi,

Can I start a service when I get a text message or an email (when there is a Notification) or should the service already be running and it should react to the Notification?

Thank you

You can intercept text messages with SmsInterceptor (Phone library). In that case you will need to start the service and then call StartForeground to prevent it from being destroyed.

Thank you, Erel.

I would also like to know is there a similar way to intercept email messages, phone calls and Talk chats.
What I'm going for is a kind of alert that goes on every so often when there is an unread message or phone call missed.

Thank you, again!

You can intercept phone calls with PhoneEvents. You cannot intercept emails and talk chats.

SMSInterceptor and Emails

You can intercept phone calls with PhoneEvents. You cannot intercept emails and talk chats.

I realise that you can't intercept emails with SMSInterceptro but is there any other way of doing this?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Not that I know.
