Firebase Notification does NOT show up when app is open

Viewed 1146

In my testing, when send out Firebase Notification to Android, the notification does NOT show up when the user has the app open on the screen. Is this a default behavior?

What should I do if I want the user to always receive notification no matter they have the app open or not?

For notification messages the default behavior is indeed that:

  • the OS displays them when the app is not active.
  • they're delivered to your application code when the app is active.
