3.3.7
- Attention for users upgrading to Android 15:
Starting with Android 15, Google restricts reading notifications that contain verification codes. However, the implementation is quite crude. SMS messages from your carrier (e.g., 10086) and various push notifications with monetary values (e.g., a discount of 9998) may be incorrectly identified as verification codes.
If you see a message saying “Sensitive content hidden,” it means the notification was hidden by the Android system, not by FilterBox.
Solutions:
- (Easiest) Go to System Settings -> Notifications -> Enhanced notifications and turn it off.
- Execute the ADB command:
adb shell appops set com.catchingnow.np RECEIVE_SENSITIVE_NOTIFICATIONS allow
- Use an AppOps tool to grant the
RECEIVE_SENSITIVE_NOTIFICATIONS permission to FilterBox.
You only need to choose one of the three options.
