Hey @HarshitaRawat1 - could you describe what the problem is and how to reproduce, please?

HarshitaRawat1 commented 3 months ago

I have a calling functionality in my app, So i m using flutter_callkit_incoming: ^2.0.4+1 for displaying incoming calls. So it's working fine in foreground but not displaying when the app is in background state or terminated.

Here is how we are handling it in background:

@pragma('vm:entry-point') Future _firebaseMessagingBackgroundHandler(RemoteMessage message) async { await Firebase.initializeApp(); await showCallkitIncoming(uuid.v4(), callData: message.data); }

I am facing this issue only in IOS, it's working in android. This was working completely fine when I was using the 14.8.0 for firebase_messaging and 2.28.0 for firebase_core, but after updating these dependencies to the latest version this issue arose.

Is the message not coming through to the background handler? have you tested that yourself?

i.e. run in flutter run --release and add print statement to check. I have tested on iOS and it worked for me.

I am also facing the same issue in iOS background handler is not giving anything at all. In android it is working fine. @russellwheatley I tried "flutter run --release" still the issue is there

When calling the API, it might be good to set "contentAvailable: true".
