How to clear all notifications programatically

[tilljo...@gmail.com]

There is a "clear" button at the bottom of the notifications (pull-down) screen. How do I press this programmatically so to speak?

In the flow the fibre works to the point of allowing the user to select an app in a notification. The app opens, but remains hidden by the notifications screen.

Not possible, except maybe using the Interact block.
A better option is to collect the ids of all posted notification using Notification posted block, then use the Notification action block to cancel them all.

Managed to solve it simply by adding a "send broadcast" block with the action: android.intent.action.CLOSE_SYSTEM_DIALOGS

That will only close the expanded notification panel, it won't "clear" any notifications.

That's what the "clear" button does - maybe not good of android to use this name for the button!

Not so, the "clear all" button will cancel all notifications. "Closing system dialogs" will simply hide the expanded notification panel.

it is also not working in android 12 do you know any other way to do the same thing

What is not working, clearing all notifications or hiding/collapsing the notification panel?
