Notifications List (Telegram style) #2301

Open Minglarn opened 2 years ago

Minglarn commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Yes. As i've started to use Local PUSH a “LOT!” since the new version, it’s getting hard to have an overview of all the received notifications. There is no possibility to view (with attached images etc) received push notifications. The received notifications is viewable trough the app, but only in plain text. See pictures below as a comparison. image image Describe the solution you'd like

I’m using Frigate and a couple of RSS feeds and push them to the app. Would it bee possible to have like a notifications overview sidebar inside the app? Something like PushOver or Telegram styled where the received notifications can be sorted per channel? And a URI function to open received notifications list directly from received push would make it a lot easyier for my wife :) image

Describe alternatives you've considered, if any

This is one request, lets use this as the focus for this initial feature request.

This is a separate request from having images. Please create a new request for this, we can probably look into letting users filter by the selected category. Adding a whole side panel is a much larger task than having to split notifications by the channel. The problem with channels is that not all users are required to use one if they are on a older android device. The only required field for a message that the app can expect all notifications to have is the message. I would say for this request be specific with the goals of what you are looking for, maybe we could extend the search feature to this field.

And a URI function to open received notifications list directly from received push would make it a lot easyier for my wife :)

This is a separate request from the 2 above please create a new one for this.

Wondering if this is doable in some sort of lovelace card? I mean, if... all the recived notifications are sent to phones via LOCAL PUSH, there should be some way to catch them and display them as a show the images and text in a lovelace card?
