Is it possible to provide setting in app to let user turn on or off Braze notification?

Question

I'm working on using Braze to push notification to our app. Is it possible to add a setting in my app to turn on or off push notification? If yes, how to do that?

Answer 1

you can't add notification settings in your app . but you can check notification permission status . by using this code

let current = UNUserNotificationCenter.current()

current.getNotificationSettings(completionHandler: { (settings) in
    if settings.authorizationStatus == .notDetermined {
        // Notification permission has not been asked yet, go for it!
    }

    if settings.authorizationStatus == .denied {
        // Notification permission was previously denied, go to settings & privacy to re-enable
    }

    if settings.authorizationStatus == .authorized {
        // Notification permission was already granted
    }
})

if auth status is denied or undetermined then you can redirect user to your application settings to on notification by using any control (button , switch) . using this code :

    guard let settingsUrl = URL(string: UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString) else {
            return
        }

        if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(settingsUrl) {
            UIApplication.shared.open(settingsUrl, completionHandler: { (success)
 in
                print("Settings opened: \(success)
") // Prints true
            })
        }
