In this tutorial video I show you how to create notification categories for your Android application in Unity. Notification categories, or channels as they are referred to on the development side, are a really nice way for users to choose which notifications they receive and which ones they don't. In this video I go over creating the plugin in Android Studio then calling that plugin in Unity C# code. Finally I demonstrate how we can send push notifications to a specific channel using the Firebase Cloud Messaging console. Enjoy!
