I have implemented a "super app" for Android & iOS that opens various web apps in a WebView, allowing users to access standard services without having to leave the app.

The Flow

The user opens the Mobile App

The user selects a web app from the list of common apps like Facebook, Twitter, Deliveroo,
Uber, and other shopping, food delivery, and ride-hailing apps.

The Problem

The web apps work fine for everything, however, the push notifications are not received by the WebView.

What I have tried

I have tried using Google Chrome Push Notifications for this. However, it only supports Chrome and it is not possible to receive these notifications in iframe or WebView.

What I Expect

I expect to be able to receive notifications from these web apps of various services I have integrated, as it is not 100% usable if my users are not able to get notifications for these web apps.

  2. step 1 ) webview data is saving,i think upto this you are coming.

    step 2 ) connect with firebase

    step 3 ) create like below FirebaseMessagingService.java, below is just example,

        public class FirebaseMessagingService extends FirebaseMessagingService{
    
        @Override
        public void onMessageReceived(RemoteMessage remoteMessage) {
    
          //  showNotification(remoteMessage.getData().get("notification"));
        //    Log.d(TAG, "Notification Message Body: " + remoteMessage.getNotification().getBody());
            showNotification( remoteMessage.getNotification().getBody(),remoteMessage.getNotification().getTitle());
    
        }
    
        private void showNotification(String Body ,String Title ) {
    
            Intent i = new Intent(this,MainActivity.class);
            i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
    
            PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(this,0,i,PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
    
            NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
    
                    .setAutoCancel(false)
                    .setContentTitle(Title)
                    .setContentText(Body)
                    .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.dd)
                    .setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
    
    
            NotificationManager manager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
    
            manager.notify(0,builder.build());
        }
    
    
    }
    

    step 4) call above FirebaseMessagingService.java in manifest.xml

    <service android:name=".FirebaseMessagingService">
                <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
                </intent-filter>
            </service>
    

    step 5) also create instance id and channel .

    step 6) enable cloud messaging and firebase function .

    step 7) once firebase function is enabled , it calls in background and you/all will receive notification

    try like this way, make some code , if still error , then edit question and add that error here, so we can easily solve this issue. comment if query.
