How can I customize notifications in my React Native app?

You can customize notifications in React Native using libraries like 'react-native-push-notification' or 'react-native-notifications'. What specific features are you looking to customize?

I want to change the notification sound and add images.

To change the notification sound, you can specify the sound file in the notification options. For images, you can use the 'bigPicture' option in the notification payload. Would you like code examples for these?

Yes, please provide a code example for changing the sound.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import PushNotification from 'react-native-push-notification';

PushNotification.localNotification({
  /* Android Only Properties */
  sound: 'your_sound_file.mp3',
  /* iOS and Android properties */
  title: 'My Notification',
  message: 'This is a custom notification!',
});

Make sure to place your sound file in the correct directory.

Thanks! How do I test the notifications?

You can test notifications by triggering them from your app or using tools like Postman to send test requests to your notification service.
