npx expo install expo-notifications
If you are installing this in an existing React Native app, start by installing expo
in your project. Then, follow the additional instructions as mentioned by the library's README under "Installation in bare React Native projects" section.
Check out the example Snack below to see Notifications in action, make sure to use a physical device to test it. Push notifications don't work on emulators/simulators.
import { useState, useEffect, useRef } from 'react';
import { Text, View, Button, Platform } from 'react-native';
import * as Device from 'expo-device';
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
Notifications.setNotificationHandler({
handleNotification: async () => ({
shouldShowAlert: true,
shouldPlaySound: false,
shouldSetBadge: false,
}),
});
export default function App() {
const [expoPushToken, setExpoPushToken] = useState('');
const [notification, setNotification] = useState(false);
const notificationListener = useRef();
const responseListener = useRef();
useEffect(() => {
registerForPushNotificationsAsync().then(token => setExpoPushToken(token));
notificationListener.current = Notifications.addNotificationReceivedListener(notification => {
setNotification(notification);
});
responseListener.current = Notifications.addNotificationResponseReceivedListener(response => {
console.log(response);
});
return () => {
Notifications.removeNotificationSubscription(notificationListener.current);
Notifications.removeNotificationSubscription(responseListener.current);
};
}, []);

If you'd like to deep link to a specific screen in your app when you receive a push notification, you can configure either of Expo's navigation systems to do that.
You can use Expo Router's built-in deep linking to handle incoming URLs from push notifications. Simply configure the root layout to listen for incoming and initial notification events.
import { useEffect } from 'react';
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
import { router } from 'expo-router';
function useNotificationObserver() {
useEffect(() => {
let isMounted = true;
function redirect(notification: Notifications.Notification) {
const url = notification.request.content.data?.url;
if (url) {
router.push(url);
}
}
Notifications.getLastNotificationResponseAsync()
.then(response => {
if (!isMounted || !response?.notification) {
return;
}
redirect(response?.notification);
});
const subscription = Notifications.addNotificationResponseReceivedListener(response => {
redirect(response.notification);
});
return () => {
isMounted = false;
subscription.remove();
};
}, []);
}
export default function Layout() {
useNotificationObserver();
return <Slot />;
}
React Navigation's manual linking configuration can be configured to handle incoming redirects from push notifications:
import React from 'react';
import { Linking } from 'react-native';
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native';
export default function App() {
return (
<NavigationContainer
linking={{
config: {
// Configuration for linking
},
async getInitialURL() {
// First, you may want to do the default deep link handling
// Check if app was opened from a deep link
const url = await Linking.getInitialURL();
if (url != null) {
return url;
}
// Handle URL from expo push notifications
const response = await Notifications.getLastNotificationResponseAsync();
return response?.notification.request.content.data.url;
},
subscribe(listener) {
const onReceiveURL = ({ url }: { url: string }) => listener(url);
// Listen to incoming links from deep linking
const eventListenerSubscription = Linking.addEventListener('url', onReceiveURL);
// Listen to expo push notifications
const subscription = Notifications.addNotificationResponseReceivedListener(response => {
const url = response.notification.request.content.data.url;
// Any custom logic to see whether the URL needs to be handled
//...
// Let React Navigation handle the URL
listener(url);
});
return () => {
// Clean up the event listeners
eventListenerSubscription.remove();
subscription.remove();
};
},
}}>
{/* Your app content */}
</NavigationContainer>
);
}
See more details on React Navigation documentation.
Firebase Cloud Messaging credentials are required for all Android apps to receive push notifications in your app (except when testing in Expo Go). For more information, see how to get FCM credentials for your app.
To register your iOS device and automatically enable push notifications for your EAS Build, see push notification setup.
To configure expo-notifications
, use the built-in config plugin in the app config (app.json or app.config.js) for EAS Build or with npx expo run:[android|ios]
. The plugin allows you to configure the following properties that cannot be set at runtime and require building a new app binary to take effect:
Name | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
icon | - | Only for: Android Local path to an image to use as the icon for push notifications. 96x96 all-white png with transparency. |
color | #ffffff | Only for: Android Tint color for the push notification image when it appears in the notification tray. |
sounds | - | Array of local paths to sound files (.wav recommended) that can be used as custom notification sounds. |
Here is an example of using the config plugin in the app config file:
{
"expo": {
"plugins": [
[
"expo-notifications",
{
"icon": "./local/assets/notification-icon.png",
"color": "#ffffff",
"sounds": [
"./local/assets/notification-sound.wav",
"./local/assets/notification-sound-other.wav"
]
}
]
]
}
}
Learn how to configure the native projects in the installation instructions in the expo-notifications
repository.
The iOS APNs entitlement is always set to 'development'. Xcode automatically changes this to 'production' during the archive. Learn more.
On Android, this module requires permission to subscribe to the device boot. It's used to setup scheduled notifications when the device (re)starts.
The RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED
permission is added automatically through the library AndroidManifest.xml.
Starting from Android 12 (API level 31), to schedule the notification that triggers at the exact time, you need to add
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM"/>
to AndroidManifest.xml.
You can read more about the exact alarm permission.
On Android 13, app users must opt-in to receive notifications via a permissions prompt automatically triggered by the operating system.
This prompt will not appear until at least one notification channel is created. The setNotificationChannelAsync
must be called before
getDevicePushTokenAsync
or getExpoPushTokenAsync
to obtain a push token. You can read more about the new notification permission behavior for Android 13
in the official documentation.
Android Permission | Description |
---|---|
Allows an application to receive the Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting.
| |
Allows applications to use exact alarm APIs. |
No usage description is required, see notification-related permissions.
Notification events include incoming notifications, interactions your users perform with notifications (this can be tapping on a notification, or interacting with it via notification categories), and rare occasions when your notifications may be dropped.
A few different listeners are exposed, so we've provided a chart below which will hopefully help you understand when you can expect each one to be triggered:
User interacted with notification? | App state | Listener(s) triggered |
---|---|---|
false | Foreground | NotificationReceivedListener |
false | Foreground or Background | BackgroundNotificationTask |
false | Killed | none |
true | Foreground | NotificationReceivedListener & NotificationResponseReceivedListener |
true | Background | NotificationResponseReceivedListener |
true | Killed | NotificationResponseReceivedListener |
In the table above, whenever NotificationResponseReceivedListener
is triggered, the same would apply to the useLastNotificationResponse
hook.
Background event listeners are not supported in Expo Go.
A background notification (iOS) or a data-only notification (Android) is a remote notification that does not display an alert, play a sound, or add a badge to your app's icon. The purpose of a background notification is to provide a way to wake up your app to trigger an app data refresh in the background.
To handle notifications while the app is in the background on iOS, add remote-notification
as a value to the array under ios.infoPlist.UIBackgroundModes
key in your app config, and add "content-available": 1
to your push notification payload. Under normal circumstances, the "content-available" flag should launch your app if it isn't running
and wasn't killed by the user. However, this is ultimately decided by the OS, so it might not always happen.
On Android, data-only notifications are sent using the data
key of the push notification request payload.
Custom notification sounds are only supported when using EAS Build.
To add custom push notification sounds to your app, add the expo-notifications
plugin to your app.json file and then under the sounds
key, provide an array of local paths to sound files that can be used as custom notification sounds. These local paths are local to your project.
{
"expo": {
"plugins": [
[
"expo-notifications",
{
"sounds": ["local/path/to/mySoundFile.wav"]
}
]
]
}
}
After building your app, the array of files will be available for use in both NotificationContentInput
and NotificationChannelInput
.
You only need to provide the base filename. Here's an example using the config above:
await Notifications.setNotificationChannelAsync('new-emails', {
name: 'E-mail notifications',
importance: Notifications.AndroidImportance.HIGH,
sound: 'mySoundFile.wav', // Provide ONLY the base filename
});
await Notifications.scheduleNotificationAsync({
content: {
title: "You've got mail! 📬",
sound: 'mySoundFile.wav', // Provide ONLY the base filename
},
trigger: {
seconds: 2,
channelId: 'new-emails',
},
});
You can also manually add notification files to your Android and iOS projects if you prefer:
On Androids 8.0+, playing a custom sound for a notification requires more than setting the sound
property on the NotificationContentInput
.
You will also need to configure the NotificationChannel
with the appropriate sound
, and use it when sending/scheduling the notification.
For the example below to work, you would place your email-sound.wav file in android/app/src/main/res/raw/.
// Prepare the notification channel
await Notifications.setNotificationChannelAsync('new-emails', {
name: 'E-mail notifications',
importance: Notifications.AndroidImportance.HIGH,
sound: 'email-sound.wav', // <- for Android 8.0+, see channelId property below
});
// Eg. schedule the notification
await Notifications.scheduleNotificationAsync({
content: {
title: "You've got mail! 📬",
body: 'Open the notification to read them all',
sound: 'email-sound.wav', // <- for Android below 8.0
},
trigger: {
seconds: 2,
channelId: 'new-emails', // <- for Android 8.0+, see definition above
},
});
On iOS, all that's needed is to place your sound file in your Xcode project (see the screenshot below),
and then specify the sound file in your NotificationContentInput
, like this:
await Notifications.scheduleNotificationAsync({
content: {
title: "You've got mail! 📬",
body: 'Open the notification to read them all',
sound: 'notification.wav',
},
trigger: {
// ...
},
});
When sending a push notification, put an object conforming to the following type as data
of the notification:
export interface FirebaseData {
title?: string;
message?: string;
subtitle?: string;
sound?: boolean | string;
vibrate?: boolean | number[];
priority?: AndroidNotificationPriority;
badge?: number;
}
On iOS, permissions for sending notifications are a little more granular than they are on Android.
Because of this, you should rely on the NotificationPermissionsStatus
's ios.status
field, instead of the root status
field.
This value will be one of the following, accessible under Notifications.IosAuthorizationStatus
:
NOT_DETERMINED
: The user hasn't yet made a choice about whether the app is allowed to schedule notificationsDENIED
: The app isn't authorized to schedule or receive notificationsAUTHORIZED
: The app is authorized to schedule or receive notificationsPROVISIONAL
: The application is provisionally authorized to post noninterruptive user notificationsEPHEMERAL
: The app is authorized to schedule or receive notifications for a limited amount of timeNotification categories allow you to create interactive push notifications, so that a user can respond directly to the incoming notification
either via buttons or a text response. A category defines the set of actions a user can take, and then those actions are applied to a notification
by specifying the categoryIdentifier
in the NotificationContent
.
On iOS, notification categories also allow you to customize your notifications further. With each category, not only can you set interactive actions a user can take, but you can also configure things like the placeholder text to display when the user disables notification previews for your app.
Notification categories are not supported on the web and all related methods will result in noop.
Starting in Android 8.0 (API level 26), all notifications must be assigned to a channel. For each channel, you can set the visual and auditory behavior that is applied to all notifications in that channel. Then, users can change these settings and decide which notification channels from your app should be intrusive or visible at all, as Android developer docs states.
If you do not specify a notification channel, expo-notifications
will create a fallback channel for you, named Miscellaneous.
We encourage you to always ensure appropriate channels with informative names are set up for the application and to always send notifications to these channels.
Calling these methods is a no-op for platforms that do not support this feature (Android below version 8.0 (26), iOS and web).
You can configure the notification.icon
and notification.color
keys
in the project's app.json if you are using Expo Prebuild or by using the expo-notifications
config plugin directly.
These are build-time settings, so you'll need to recompile your native Android app with eas build -p android
or npx expo run:android
to see the changes.
For your notification icon, make sure you follow Google's design guidelines (the icon must be all white with a transparent background) or else it may not be displayed as intended.
You can also set a custom notification color per-notification directly in your NotificationContentInput
under the color
attribute.
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
addPushTokenListener(listener)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
listener | PushTokenListener | A function accepting a push token as an argument, it will be called whenever the push token changes. |
In rare situations, a push token may be changed by the push notification service while the app is running. When a token is rolled, the old one becomes invalid and sending notifications to it will fail. A push token listener will let you handle this situation gracefully by registering the new token with your backend right away.
A Subscription
object represents the subscription of the provided listener.
Example
Registering a push token listener using a React hook.
import React from 'react';
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
import { registerDevicePushTokenAsync } from '../api';
export default function App() {
React.useEffect(() => {
const subscription = Notifications.addPushTokenListener(registerDevicePushTokenAsync);
return () => subscription.remove();
}, []);
return (
// Your app content
);
}
getDevicePushTokenAsync()
Returns a native FCM, APNs token or a PushSubscription
data
that can be used with another push notification service.
getExpoPushTokenAsync(options)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
options (optional) | ExpoPushTokenOptions | Object allowing you to pass in push notification configuration. Default: {} |
Returns an Expo token that can be used to send a push notification to the device using Expo's push notifications service.
This method makes requests to the Expo's servers. It can get rejected in cases where the request itself fails
(for example, due to the device being offline, experiencing a network timeout, or other HTTPS request failures).
To provide offline support to your users, you should try/catch
this method and implement retry logic to attempt
to get the push token later, once the device is back online.
For Expo's backend to be able to send notifications to your app, you will need to provide it with push notification keys. For more information, see credentials in the push notifications setup.
Returns a Promise
that resolves to an object representing acquired push token.
Example
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
export async function registerForPushNotificationsAsync(userId: string) {
const expoPushToken = await Notifications.getExpoPushTokenAsync({
projectId: 'your-project-id',
});
await fetch('https://example.com/', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
body: JSON.stringify({
userId,
expoPushToken,
}),
});
}
removePushTokenSubscription(subscription)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
subscription | Subscription | A subscription returned by |
Removes a push token subscription returned by an addPushTokenListener
call.
void
addNotificationReceivedListener(listener)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
listener | (event: Notification) => void | A function accepting a notification ( |
Listeners registered by this method will be called whenever a notification is received while the app is running.
A Subscription
object represents the subscription of the provided listener.
Example
Registering a notification listener using a React hook:
import React from 'react';
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
export default function App() {
React.useEffect(() => {
const subscription = Notifications.addNotificationReceivedListener(notification => {
console.log(notification);
});
return () => subscription.remove();
}, []);
return (
// Your app content
);
}
addNotificationResponseReceivedListener(listener)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
listener | (event: NotificationResponse) => void | A function accepting notification response ( |
Listeners registered by this method will be called whenever a user interacts with a notification (for example, taps on it).
A Subscription
object represents the subscription of the provided listener.
Example
Register a notification responder listener:
import React from 'react';
import { Linking } from 'react-native';
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
export default function Container() {
React.useEffect(() => {
const subscription = Notifications.addNotificationResponseReceivedListener(response => {
const url = response.notification.request.content.data.url;
Linking.openURL(url);
});
return () => subscription.remove();
}, []);
return (
// Your app content
);
}
addNotificationsDroppedListener(listener)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
listener | () => void | A callback function. |
Listeners registered by this method will be called whenever some notifications have been dropped by the server.
Applicable only to Firebase Cloud Messaging which we use as a notifications service on Android. It corresponds to onDeletedMessages()
callback.
More information can be found in Firebase docs.
A Subscription
object represents the subscription of the provided listener.
getLastNotificationResponseAsync()
Promise<NotificationResponse | null>
removeNotificationSubscription(subscription)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
subscription | Subscription | A subscription returned by |
Removes a notification subscription returned by an addNotificationListener
call.
void
useLastNotificationResponse()
A React hook always returns the notification response that was received most recently (a notification response designates an interaction with a notification, such as tapping on it).
If you don't want to use a hook, you can use
Notifications.getLastNotificationResponseAsync()
instead.
undefined | null | NotificationResponse
The hook may return one of these three types/values:
undefined
- until we're sure of what to return,null
- if no notification response has been received yet,NotificationResponse
object - if a notification response was received.Example
Responding to a notification tap by opening a URL that could be put into the notification's data
(opening the URL is your responsibility and is not a part of the expo-notifications
API):
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
import { Linking } from 'react-native';
export default function App() {
const lastNotificationResponse = Notifications.useLastNotificationResponse();
React.useEffect(() => {
if (
lastNotificationResponse &&
lastNotificationResponse.notification.request.content.data.url &&
lastNotificationResponse.actionIdentifier === Notifications.DEFAULT_ACTION_IDENTIFIER
) {
Linking.openURL(lastNotificationResponse.notification.request.content.data.url);
}
}, [lastNotificationResponse]);
return (
// Your app content
);
}
setNotificationHandler(handler)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
handler | null | NotificationHandler | A single parameter which should be either |
When a notification is received while the app is running, using this function you can set a callback that will decide whether the notification should be shown to the user or not.
When a notification is received, handleNotification
is called with the incoming notification as an argument.
The function should respond with a behavior object within 3 seconds, otherwise, the notification will be discarded.
If the notification is handled successfully, handleSuccess
is called with the identifier of the notification,
otherwise (or on timeout) handleError
will be called.
The default behavior when the handler is not set or does not respond in time is not to show the notification.
void
Example
Implementing a notification handler that always shows the notification when it is received.
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
Notifications.setNotificationHandler({
handleNotification: async () => ({
shouldShowAlert: true,
shouldPlaySound: false,
shouldSetBadge: false,
}),
});
registerTaskAsync(taskName)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
taskName | string | The string you passed to |
When a notification is received while the app is backgrounded, using this function you can set a callback that will be run in response to that notification.
Under the hood, this function is run using expo-task-manager
. You must define the task first, with TaskManager.defineTask
.
Make sure you define it in the global scope.
The callback function you define with TaskManager.defineTask
will receive an object with the following fields:
data
: The remote payload delivered by either FCM (Android) or APNs (iOS). See here for details.error
: The error (if any) that occurred during execution of the task.executionInfo
: JSON object of additional info related to the task, including the taskName
.Promise<null>
Example
import * as TaskManager from 'expo-task-manager';
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
const BACKGROUND_NOTIFICATION_TASK = 'BACKGROUND-NOTIFICATION-TASK';
TaskManager.defineTask(BACKGROUND_NOTIFICATION_TASK, ({ data, error, executionInfo }) => {
console.log('Received a notification in the background!');
// Do something with the notification data
});
Notifications.registerTaskAsync(BACKGROUND_NOTIFICATION_TASK);
unregisterTaskAsync(taskName)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
taskName | string | The string you passed to |
Used to unregister tasks registered with registerTaskAsync
method.
Promise<null>
getPermissionsAsync()
Calling this function checks current permissions settings related to notifications. It lets you verify whether the app is currently allowed to display alerts, play sounds, etc. There is no user-facing effect of calling this.
It returns a Promise
resolving to an object represents permission settings (NotificationPermissionsStatus
).
On iOS, make sure you properly interpret the permissions response.
Example
Check if the app is allowed to send any type of notifications (interrupting and non-interrupting–provisional on iOS).
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
export async function allowsNotificationsAsync() {
const settings = await Notifications.getPermissionsAsync();
return (
settings.granted || settings.ios?.status === Notifications.IosAuthorizationStatus.PROVISIONAL
);
}
requestPermissionsAsync(permissions)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
permissions (optional) | NotificationPermissionsRequest | An object representing configuration for the request scope. |
Prompts the user for notification permissions according to request. Request defaults to asking the user to allow displaying alerts, setting badge count and playing sounds.
It returns a Promise resolving to an object represents permission settings (NotificationPermissionsStatus
).
On iOS, make sure you properly interpret the permissions response.
Example
Prompts the user to allow the app to show alerts, play sounds, set badge count and let Siri read out messages through AirPods.
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
export function requestPermissionsAsync() {
return await Notifications.requestPermissionsAsync({
ios: {
allowAlert: true,
allowBadge: true,
allowSound: true,
allowAnnouncements: true,
},
});
}
getBadgeCountAsync()
Fetches the number currently set as the badge of the app icon on device's home screen. A 0
value means that the badge is not displayed.
Note: Not all Android launchers support application badges. If the launcher does not support icon badges, the method will always resolve to
0
.
Promise<number>
Returns a Promise resolving to a number that represents the current badge of the app icon.
setBadgeCountAsync(badgeCount, options)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
badgeCount | number | The count which should appear on the badge. A value of |
options (optional) | SetBadgeCountOptions | An object of options configuring behavior applied in Web environment. |
Sets the badge of the app's icon to the specified number. Setting it to 0
clears the badge. On iOS, this method requires that you have requested
the user's permission for allowBadge
via requestPermissionsAsync
,
otherwise it will automatically return false
.
Note: Not all Android launchers support application badges. If the launcher does not support icon badges, the method will resolve to
false
.
Promise<boolean>
It returns a Promise resolving to a boolean representing whether the setting of the badge succeeded.
cancelAllScheduledNotificationsAsync()
Cancels all scheduled notifications.
Promise<void>
A Promise that resolves once all the scheduled notifications are successfully canceled, or if there are no scheduled notifications.
cancelScheduledNotificationAsync(identifier)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
identifier | string | The notification identifier with which |
Cancels a single scheduled notification. The scheduled notification of given ID will not trigger.
Promise<void>
A Promise resolves once the scheduled notification is successfully canceled or if there is no scheduled notification for a given identifier.
Example
Schedule and then cancel the notification:
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
async function scheduleAndCancel() {
const identifier = await Notifications.scheduleNotificationAsync({
content: {
title: 'Hey!',
},
trigger: { seconds: 60, repeats: true },
});
await Notifications.cancelScheduledNotificationAsync(identifier);
}
getAllScheduledNotificationsAsync()
Fetches information about all scheduled notifications.
Returns a Promise resolving to an array of objects conforming to the Notification
interface.
getNextTriggerDateAsync(trigger)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
trigger | SchedulableNotificationTriggerInput | The schedulable notification trigger you would like to check next trigger date for (of type |
Allows you to check what will be the next trigger date for given notification trigger input.
Promise<number | null>
If the return value is null
, the notification won't be triggered. Otherwise, the return value is the Unix timestamp in milliseconds
at which the notification will be triggered.
Example
Calculate next trigger date for a notification trigger:
import * as Notifications from 'expo-notifications';
async function logNextTriggerDate() {
try {
const nextTriggerDate = await Notifications.getNextTriggerDateAsync({
hour: 9,
minute: 0,
});
console.log(nextTriggerDate === null ? 'No next trigger date' : new Date(nextTriggerDate));
} catch (e) {
console.warn(`Couldn't have calculated next trigger date: ${e}`);
}
}
Deprecated This method has been deprecated in favor of using an explicit
NotificationHandler
and thescheduleNotificationAsync
method. More information can be found in our FYI document.
presentNotificationAsync(content, identifier)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
content | NotificationContentInput | An object representing the notification content. |
identifier (optional) | string | - |
Schedules a notification for immediate trigger.
Promise<string>
It returns a Promise resolving with the notification's identifier once the notification is successfully scheduled for immediate display.
scheduleNotificationAsync(request)
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
request | NotificationRequestInput | An object describing the notification to be triggered. |
Schedules a notification to be triggered in the future.
Note: Please note that this does not mean that the notification will be presented when it is triggered. For the notification to be presented you have to set a notification handler with
setNotificationHandler
that will return an appropriate notification behavior. For more information see the example below.
Promise<string>
Returns a Promise resolving to a string which is a notification identifier you can later use to cancel the notification or to identify an incoming notification.
