You can display toast message using Toasts.Forms.Plugin
**Setup**
In your iOS, Android, WinRT and UWP projects please call:
DependencyService.Register<ToastNotification>(); // Register your dependency
ToastNotification.Init();
// If you are using Android you must pass through the activity
ToastNotification.Init(this);
If you are using Xamarin Forms, you must do this AFTER your call to Xamarin.Forms.Init();
**Permissions**
In iOS you must request permission to show local notifications first since it is a user interrupting action.
// Request Permissions
if (UIDevice.CurrentDevice.CheckSystemVersion(10, 0))
{
// Request Permissions
UNUserNotificationCenter.Current.RequestAuthorization(UNAuthorizationOptions.Alert | UNAuthorizationOptions.Badge | UNAuthorizationOptions.Sound, (granted, error) =>
{
// Do something if needed
});
}
else if (UIDevice.CurrentDevice.CheckSystemVersion(8, 0))
{
var notificationSettings = UIUserNotificationSettings.GetSettingsForTypes(
UIUserNotificationType.Alert | UIUserNotificationType.Badge | UIUserNotificationType.Sound, null);
app.RegisterUserNotificationSettings(notificationSettings);
}
**Usage**
Use dependency service in order to resolve IToastNotificator.
var notificator = DependencyService.Get<IToastNotificator>();
var options = new NotificationOptions()
{
Title = "Title",
Description = "Description"
};
var result = await notificator.Notify(options);
The result that is returned is a NotificationResult with an Action inside with one of the following values.
[Flags]
public enum NotificationAction
{
Timeout = 1, // Hides by itself
Clicked = 2, // User clicked on notification
Dismissed = 4, // User manually dismissed notification
ApplicationHidden = 8, // Application went to background
Failed = 16 // When failed to display the toast
}
If you want the Clicked NotificationAction you must set IsClickable = true in the NotificationOptions.
Taking a look to [this plugin][1]
It say that
In iOS you must request permission to show local notifications first since it is a user interrupting action.
// Request Permissions
if (UIDevice.CurrentDevice.CheckSystemVersion(10, 0))
{
// Request Permissions
UNUserNotificationCenter.Current.RequestAuthorization(UNAuthorizationOptions.Alert | UNAuthorizationOptions.Badge | UNAuthorizationOptions.Sound, (granted, error) =>
{
// Do something if needed
});
}
else if (UIDevice.CurrentDevice.CheckSystemVersion(8, 0))
{
var notificationSettings = UIUserNotificationSettings.GetSettingsForTypes(
UIUserNotificationType.Alert | UIUserNotificationType.Badge | UIUserNotificationType.Sound, null);
app.RegisterUserNotificationSettings(notificationSettings);
}
