Actionable notificationa do not clear after action

Mobile Apps Home Assistant Companion for Android

I’m using actionable notifications to remind me of putting the trash out. Since a few months I noticed that the notification no longer gets dismissed when clicking the action button. However, the action is received in HA (and processed by an automation), yet the notification does not disappear from my phone.

Anyone?

Automation Code: HomeAssistantConfig/packages/6 - Outside/trash.yaml at 39e878712849100214e29e223f34cd897511fdb7 · hmmbob/HomeAssistantConfig · GitHub

Also, other actionable notifications clear out just fine when clicking the action

I searched your YAML for a call to “clear_notification”, I didn’t find any. You need to clear the notification manually. That might be your problem…

No, you need not with an actionable notification. Those are supposed to dismiss when clicking one of the actions.

I’ve experienced this as well (albeit intermittently) for a while. I believe there is an open GitHub issue (couldn’t quickly find it) and is limited to situations where multiple notifications are sent rapid fire. My memory is it was an android issue related to it implementing a sort of ‘cool down’ when a single app sends multiple notifications. I also seem to remember a bandaid fix being to assign the notifications to groups.

Are you sending more than one notification roughly simultaneously?

A 5min in between. One runs at 17:50 (isnt actionable), the other at 17:55.

300 seconds should be enough cooldown, right?

I honestly don’t know.

The grouping fix definitely works if that’s the issue (I added it to my one set of notifications that all come in at once and have never had an issue with them since). I’d try it and see if it fixes your issue.
