Unity Android - Launch App From Push Notification

Question

Hi there. So my question is simple, and this has worked before, but I was looking to find out how to open my app from the push notification I receive from it. When I press the notification, the Unity game doesn't launch and the notification just disappears. I included my manifest file as an attachment. I have an additional question on the same topic, but I'll create a new question for that one. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing AndroidManifest.xml file. You have integrated in properly but as I am going through with your Manifest file I will found two Service and two Receiver there, So If the notification is override by other service and receiver, that may be a reason you are unable to launch the unity application.

Will you please share more logs of Android logcat that will help me to exactly track the problem.

Let me know if more queries are concern.

Thanks

Thanks, Vishnu!  

You were right, here is my new manifest.  It seems like Union Assets (A Unity plugin), and a few other plugins I used in the past edited the manifest and added a few things that weren't even necessary.

Here is the new XML.  Is the service/receiver that you mentioned now fixed?:

If you still need the logcat, I'll send it in the next reply.  Let me know.  Thanks.

You have to remove unnecessary intent filter like :
 <intent-filter>
      <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION" />
      <category android:name="com.GameEverything.TicTaco" />
    </intent-filter>

Please do testing and let me know if still having the same problem at that time share logcat logs.
