I am trying to show 5 actions in the expanded media notification in Android but no matter, both the collapsed and expanded notifications are only showing three actions (prev, play/pause, next). In extended view, I also want to show rewind and fast-forward. What am I missing? I tested on Samsung Galaxy 22 (Android 13) and Google Pixel 5a (Android 14).
val skipToPreviousAction = NotificationCompat.Action(
prevIcon,
"Skip Backwards",
MediaButtonReceiver.buildMediaButtonPendingIntent(context, component,
PlaybackStateCompat.ACTION_SKIP_TO_PREVIOUS)
)
...
val builder = NotificationCompat.Builder(context, channelId)
.setSmallIcon(R.drawable.app_logo_24)
.setLargeIcon(largeBitmap)
.setContentIntent(buildContentIntent())
.setTicker(title)
.setAutoCancel(false)
.setLocalOnly(true)
.setVisibility(NotificationCompat.VISIBILITY_PUBLIC)
.setPriority(NotificationCompat.PRIORITY_MAX)
.setCategory(NotificationCompat.CATEGORY_TRANSPORT)
.addAction(skipToPreviousAction)
.addAction(rewindAction)
.addAction(if (isPlaying) pauseAction else playAction)
.addAction(fastForwardAction)
.addAction(skipToNextAction)
.setOngoing(isPlaying)
.setOnlyAlertOnce(true)
.setStyle(androidx.media.app.NotificationCompat.MediaStyle()
.setMediaSession(token)
.setShowActionsInCompactView(0, 2, 4)
//.setShowActionsInCompactView(0, 1, 2, 3, 4) // tried just in case but no use
.setCancelButtonIntent(cancelButtonIntent)
.setShowCancelButton(true))
Those three buttons are working but never show all five.
Update: Not seeing this issue in Android 9 Samsung S9 - so seems like OS/device specific.
