The CrossGeeks implementation for the icon only works for me when the app is in Foreground. If you want to use the icon in the background you must edit the AndroidManifest:

Insert the following meta-data element into the application section:

<meta-data
    android:name="com.google.firebase.messaging.default_notification_icon"
    android:resource="@drawable/notification_icon" />

Hi ! I've successfully customize the notification Icons (App & Notifications), but when I receive a notification on the android smartphone, the icon is not customized on the wearable attached (android wear watch). I did worked when I compiled against Android9, but it's now broken when compiling with AndroidX.

To summup, with Android10, the notification shown on the smartphone has a correct customized icon, but the watch android-wear notification got the "default-droid-icon".

Any ideas why ? (I repeat, it worked well before with android9)

Thanks
