Notification.WearableExtender

public static final class Notification.WearableExtender
extends Object implements Notification.Extender

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.app.Notification.WearableExtender


Helper class to add wearable extensions to notifications.

See Creating Notifications for Android Wear for more information on how to use this class.

To create a notification with wearable extensions:

  1. Create a Notification.Builder, setting any desired properties.
  2. Create a Notification.WearableExtender.
  3. Set wearable-specific properties using the add and set methods of Notification.WearableExtender.
  4. Call Notification.Builder.extend(Extender) to apply the extensions to a notification.
  5. Post the notification to the notification system with the NotificationManager.notify(...) methods.
 Notification notif = new Notification.Builder(mContext)
         .setContentTitle("New mail from " + sender.toString())
         .setContentText(subject)
         .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.new_mail)
         .extend(new Notification.WearableExtender()
                 .setContentIcon(R.drawable.new_mail))
         .build();
 NotificationManager notificationManger =
         (NotificationManager) getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
 notificationManger.notify(0, notif);

Wearable extensions can be accessed on an existing notification by using the WearableExtender(Notification) constructor, and then using the get methods to access values.

 Notification.WearableExtender wearableExtender = new Notification.WearableExtender(
         notification);
 List<Notification> pages = wearableExtender.getPages();

Public methods

addAction

Added in API level 20
public Notification.WearableExtender addAction (Notification.Action action)

Add a wearable action to this notification.

When wearable actions are added using this method, the set of actions that show on a wearable device splits from devices that only show actions added using Notification.Builder.addAction(Action). This allows for customization of which actions display on different devices.

Parameters
action Notification.Action: the action to add to this notification

Returns
Notification.WearableExtender this object for method chaining

addActions

Added in API level 20
public Notification.WearableExtender addActions (List<Notification.Action> actions)

Adds wearable actions to this notification.

When wearable actions are added using this method, the set of actions that show on a wearable device splits from devices that only show actions added using Notification.Builder.addAction(Action). This allows for customization of which actions display on different devices.

Parameters
actions List: the actions to add to this notification

Returns
Notification.WearableExtender this object for method chaining

addPage

Added in API level 20
Deprecated in API level 29
public Notification.WearableExtender addPage (Notification page)

This method was deprecated in API level 29.
Multiple content pages are no longer supported.

Add an additional page of content to display with this notification. The current notification forms the first page, and pages added using this function form subsequent pages. This field can be used to separate a notification into multiple sections.

Parameters
page Notification: the notification to add as another page

Returns
Notification.WearableExtender this object for method chaining

See also:

addPages

Added in API level 20
Deprecated in API level 29
public Notification.WearableExtender addPages (List<Notification> pages)

This method was deprecated in API level 29.
Multiple content pages are no longer supported.

Add additional pages of content to display with this notification. The current notification forms the first page, and pages added using this function form subsequent pages. This field can be used to separate a notification into multiple sections.

Parameters
pages List: a list of notifications

Returns
Notification.WearableExtender this object for method chaining

See also:

clearActions

Added in API level 20
public Notification.WearableExtender clearActions ()

Clear all wearable actions present on this builder.

Returns
Notification.WearableExtender this object for method chaining.

See also:

clearPages

Added in API level 20
Deprecated in API level 29
public Notification.WearableExtender clearPages ()

This method was deprecated in API level 29.
Multiple content pages are no longer supported.

Clear all additional pages present on this builder.

Returns
Notification.WearableExtender this object for method chaining.

clone

Added in API level 20
public Notification.WearableExtender clone ()

Creates and returns a copy of this object. The precise meaning of "copy" may depend on the class of the object. The general intent is that, for any object x, the expression:

 x.clone() != x
will be true, and that the expression:
 x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()
will be true, but these are not absolute requirements. While it is typically the case that:
 x.clone().equals(x)
will be true, this is not an absolute requirement.

By convention, the returned object should be obtained by calling super.clone. If a class and all of its superclasses (except Object) obey this convention, it will be the case that x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass().

By convention, the object returned by this method should be independent of this object (which is being cloned). To achieve this independence, it may be necessary to modify one or more fields of the object returned by super.clone before returning it. Typically, this means copying any mutable objects that comprise the internal "deep structure" of the object being cloned and replacing the references to these objects with references to the copies. If a class contains only primitive fields or references to immutable objects, then it is usually the case that no fields in the object returned by super.clone need to be modified.

Returns
Notification.WearableExtender a clone of this instance.

extend

Added in API level 20
public Notification.Builder extend (Notification.Builder builder)

Apply wearable extensions to a notification that is being built. This is typically called by the Notification.Builder.extend(Extender) method of Notification.Builder.
