Android List of enabled notification listeners is empty (getEnabledListenerPackages)

Question

When I try to fetch the list of getEnabledListenerPackages I get an empty list.

NotificationManagerCompat.getEnabledListenerPackages(getContext())

returns null.

I know there are many apps which receive notifications what else needs to be done to get this to return a proper list.

alternatively is there any way of finding if user has disabled push for the app from settings

Hi, are you succeed in knowing if the user has disabled push notifications from settings? — icastell, Jul 12 '16 at 10:25

According to this thread it seems that from 19+ you can know that notifications are enabled or not for your app. More precisely this is the call NotificationManagerCompat.areNotificationsEnabled().
