Doesn't work on Oreo

[BeeeWall]

This is almost certainly due to the lack of a persistent notification. Any updates on adding that? I saw in a few Play Store reviews you said you were working on it, but that was a while ago.

Hello there, sorry for the inconvenience. I'm not sure I will add a persistent notification. Whole point of the app was to provide the original Caffeine experience without root and a persistent notification. With Oreo, this is not possible. Thanks for the attention. I will update the play store description and this repo readme.

Maybe you could add a setting to enable it?

Hello again.

I rewrote the whole app and added Android O support. Play Store update is on the way. You can try it and reply here if you encounter any errors.

Thanks.

Thanks! In my (very brief) testing, it seems to work. There is an issue: the notification disappeared almost immediately. It still kept the screen awake the one time I tested it, but it may be unreliable. Also, if you tap the icon again after the notification disappears, it starts flickering between the new time and old.

Hi.

Fixed those issues. Can you please try again and write a feedback here? Thanks.

[BeeeWall]

Nope, the issues are still there. The notification lasts like a second or two longer, but it still disappears, and the flickering still happens (I can do a screen record in a second).

Here's a screen recording of what I'm talking about.

Could you send me a logcat please? Because on my end the app works flawlessly. I could not understand the problem.

[BeeeWall]

Here.

Issue should be gone now. TileService has a weird lifecycle. That was leaking some stuff. I moved timer related stuff into a new service. Let me know if you have any issues.

It works now, thanks!
