Notification setAutoCancel(true) doesn't work

android, click, notifications

Solution

Using setContentIntent should solve your problem:

.setContentIntent(PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, new Intent(), 0));

In your example:

NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder= new NotificationCompat.Builder(this)
        .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notification_icon)
        .setContentTitle("title")
        .setAutoCancel(true)
        .setContentText("content")
        .setContentIntent(PendingIntent.getActivity(this, 0, new Intent(), 0));
NotificationManager notificationManager= (NotificationManager)getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
notificationManager.notify(0, mBuilder.build());

Often you might want to direct the user to the relevant content and so might replace 'new Intent()' with something else.

I uploaded a demo to github.

Problem

I'm trying to show a notification that is removed when the user taps on it. I'm using the `NotificationCompat` class to build my notification and I call `setAutoCancel(true)` on my builder. This is the piece of code: ``` NotificationCompat.Builder mBuilder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(this) .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher) .setContentTitle("title") .setAutoCancel(true) .setContentText("content"); NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager)getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE); notificationManager.notify(0, mBuilder.build()); ``` The notification is correctly added but when I tap on it nothing happens! What am I doing wrong?
