Describe the bug

As soon as the app launches, the request permissions for push notifications modal is showing up. The library should be flexible enough so that this can be configured.

Expected behavior

I would like to configure this, like telling the config (probably in aws-exports) to not ask for permissions on app launch. I would like to do so after the user aunthenticates, reaches Home Screen, etc.

Reproduction steps

Amplify.configure(awsconfig)
Notifications.Push.enable()
App launches
Push notifications request permissions is triggered

Hello, @oscarparedez-eagle 👋 and thanks for opening this issue. For Android versions lower than v13, the permission modal pops upon channel creation and happens at startup by default. However, v13+ of Android will allow for control of when the permissions modal pops up via the Notifications.Push.getPermissionStatus() method. So the time at which the permissions modal will appear is going to be based on your app's target SDK version.

Can you confirm what version of Android you're currently on?

ParkAward commented 1 year ago

@cwomack Looking at AWS Pinpoint, I could send a test message only if I had an fcm token, but I can't send a version android 12?, is it only possible to send segments?

What should i do if I want fcm token?

cwomack commented 1 year ago

Hey, @ParkAward. Does that mean you're currently using Android v12.x? Just to confirm, have you already gone through the steps to set up FCM for Push Notifications within your app?
