Dear @orkun1675,

On what Android version are you testing this? Does this also happen on the supplied example app?

Kind regards,

[orkun1675]

Hi Tim!

I am testing on a Pixel 8 Pro emulator that is running Android 35.

I was able to replicate the issue using the example app: source

[orkun1675]

Hmm, it looks like Android no longer supports ongoing notifications after v34: https://developer.android.com/about/versions/14/behavior-changes-all#non-dismissable-notifications

What a bummer. Unfortunately neither the NotificationCompat.Builder or the Foreground services documentation mentions this.

I wonder if dimissing the notification kills the foreground service?

Hi, I saw that deleting the notification did not kill the service.
