Retrieve text from a RemoteViews Object

Question

I need to retrieve some text from a RemoteViews object. It is possible for me to get the LayoutId, but I have no idea how to retrieve text from a TextView

Answer 1

If you are targeting on Android 19+, you can use the following code for getting title/text from a Notification object without using any private APIs.

Notification noty = ...;
Bundle extras = noty.extras;
if (extras != null) {
  String title = extras.getString(Notification.EXTRA_TITLE);
  String text = extras.getString(Notification.EXTRA_TEXT);
}
