Read Android Push Notifications?

Has anyone found a way for Home Assistant to connect to a phone (in my case, Android) to read incoming push notifications from other apps? For instance, I want to work on an automation that happens when I get a notification from a particular app. Is there a way for home assistant to read notifications that come in and to perform actions based on them?

Thanks!

It is supported as android app sensor over mobile app integration.

Edit: not all notification contents are accessible as pure text and some apps are decrypting them. I tried this with ring app, the sensor content was java.string bla bla, rather than actual text.

Oh, nice! I completely missed the Sensors section of the companion app. Thanks!
