Notification Customization

Platform: Android

This section explains how to customize notifications, including setting a custom small icon for push notifications.

Configuration​

To set up a custom notification icon, configure it in your PaylisherAndroidConfig setup:

val config =
    PaylisherAndroidConfig(apiKey = PAYLISHER_API_KEY, host = PAYLISHER_HOST).apply {
        ...
        setSmallNotificationIcon = R.drawable.custom_notification_icon // Set custom small icon
        ...
    }

PaylisherAndroid.setup(this, config)

Explanation​

  • smallIconResId: This parameter allows you to define a custom small icon for notifications.
  • If not provided, the default icon (R.drawable.notification_small_icon) will be used.
  • Ensure that the icon is a transparent PNG or a monochrome vector drawable to avoid unwanted background colors.

Best Practices​

  • Use a white icon on a transparent background.
  • Store the icon in res/drawable.
  • Prefer vector drawables for scalability.
