    Hey there,

    just a curious idea:

    If i cancel a persistant notification with AN, will the app still run in foreground?
    If yes, i could just hide my tasker persistant notification and dont get the "angry" NeverDisableForegroundMode-Info in settings.
    That would also work with other Apps like
    AFWall+
    Orbot

    Good sideeffekt: I could use the information from the notification to display it in a nice way in my own Buttons/Table-Not or on the live-wallpaper with klwp.


    LG Jay

    Yes, blocking with AN will not stop an app from running in the foreground :)

    wow, i didn't expect that. why is that not our way to go to get rid of persistent "foreground"-notifications..

    i just setup a profile: [Tasker: on Monitor start] -> [AN cancel notification..]
    seems to work fine
    thx alot

    Yep, that is indeed doable :) It's also what I point out here:

    You don't even need Tasker to do it :D

    Even that is not needed anymore since your last update (Beta 5.6.1b), now i can just block the "monitoring" category in android notification permissions itself!

    Nice.
