App should not block notifications disabled on start #270

Description

@Xavron

When notifications are disabled, app blocks it on start. App works perfectly good and fine with notifications disabled.

Workaround: Start app, start server, swipe away notification, swipe away app from running app screen, then disable notifications in Android's app settings. Don't re-open app after this. Just let it run in the bg. If re-opening, first re-enable notifications.

Tested on Android 15.

Newer Android versions especially allow notifications to be swiped away. So, it doesn't break the app use. App continues to work in the bg perfectly good and fine.

With current code, app staying working in the bg is dependent on the device/OS aggressiveness and Android settings. Not on notification visibility.

Am seeing no issues from this.

  • Double confirm that no issues are seen from this including on Android 16. Can be disable allowable, if not full removal of ask code.

    • as of Nov 1, still seeing no problems from this using commit example below.
  • Also fully disabled in my repo so can confirm that disabled is still working correctly in bg only, on app start, etc.

  • Commit example: Xavron@6e7c2e4 + Xavron@690f66f . Not tested pre-Android 15.

    • Could always put a sdk ver >= Android 15 sdk on there until someone tests it on earlier versions.
