  • Bring app to foreground on push notification received
    1 project | /r/capacitor | 29 Mar 2022
    I am trying to bring my Capacitor 3 + Angular app in to the foreground when receiving a data only push message. The aim is to present the user with a “Phone ringing” screen like a normal call. I have been able to code in the push messages and have them receive and process but this is all when the app is running. I have tried using cordova plugin - background mode but it causes Gradle compile errors. I’m not sure where to go next - surely this is a common function so am unsure why I am unable to find help on this.
  • Keep Capacitor app awake in the background

    Has anyone been able to keep a Capacitor 3 app running in the background on Android? I've tried using this powermanagement plugin, background mode plugin, etc. but app activity consistently stops after about 5 minutes of switching to another task.
