Firebase notifications when app is closed

Question

Answer 1

Your problem is you using it with notification tray.

See this link

Messages with both notification and data payload, both background and foreground. In this case, the notification is delivered to the device’s system tray, and the data payload is delivered in the extras of the intent of your launcher Activity.

If you using {data:"something"}(data-message) with {notification:"something"}(display-message) while your app is in background the data payload will delivered to extras of the intent but not to the onMessageReceived() method.I assume you implement your code for showing notification, so when your app is in foreground onMessageReceived() is trigger and it display the desire notification you want but when it is not onMessageReceived() no get trigger instead android system will handle it with your notification payload. You just have remove {notification:"something"}(display-message/notification tray) from your server side code to always ensure onMessageReceived().

For anyone keep mention onMessageReceived() will always trigger no matter wether it is not foreground or background please visit this link
