how can I redirect the user to Setting -> Security -> Notification Access in Flutter?

Question

6

I'm currently developing an app for Android that uses the NotificationListenerService, which requires that the user will enable notification access for my app under Setting -> Security -> Notification Access.

My question is that can I redirect the user to this place so they will enable it? So far I only managed to direct them to Setting -> Security window.

Also, is it possible to first check if the user enabled notification access for my app already and only then redirect them?

For Flutter

After a long search, I found the solution that will show the intended notification settings.

This is only for Flutter.

I found an app_settings plugin. Just add it in pubspec.yaml and install it.

After that just one line of code.

RaisedButton(

                onPressed: () {
                  // AppSettings.openLocationSettings();
                  AppSettings.openNotificationSettings();
                  //  openWIFISettings();
                },
)

For Java

To open the settings for a specific channel, you can use ACTION_CHANNEL_NOTIFICATION_SETTINGS:

Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_CHANNEL_NOTIFICATION_SETTINGS)
        .putExtra(Settings.EXTRA_APP_PACKAGE, context.getPackageName())
        .putExtra(Settings.EXTRA_CHANNEL_ID, yourChannelId);
startActivity(intent);

Using ACTION_APP_NOTIFICATION_SETTINGS will open settings of list all channels of the app:

Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_APP_NOTIFICATION_SETTINGS)
        .putExtra(Settings.EXTRA_APP_PACKAGE, context.getPackageName());
startActivity(intent);

For Notification check, you can use "areNotificationEnabled" method. You can read at below doc/ https://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/app/NotificationManagerCompat.html#areNotificationsEnabled()
