User Notification Center get Authorization Options Swift 3/4 ios10/11

Question

For iOS lower than 10 we used to have the property to get the types (.alert, .badge etc) of notifications User allowed. We used this code:

UIApplication.shared.currentUserNotificationSettings?.types

But it's now deprecated.

Question:

How can we do the same but using UNUserNotificationCenter for ios10/11? Is there an equivalent method?

Consider: the deprecated way still works but we never know if one day Apple will take it down.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You can still get the notification settings by:

UNUserNotificationCenter.current().getNotificationSettings { settings in

    if settings.alertSetting == .enabled {
        //alert is enabled
    }

}

As it's mentioned in apple doc

When the value of this property is UNNotificationSetting.enabled, the app is authorized to display alerts.
