Get Notification received time in Android

I am using Firebase to push notification from server to a specific android device. I want to get time when notification is received (device's local time not server time). How can I get that?

Because I have to show a timer with respect to that time so that is why I need that exact time when notification received on that device.

You can use this firebase function in the onMessageReceived() method:

Long time = remoteMessage.getSentTime();

Hope this helps :)

String currentDateTimeString = DateFormat.getDateInstance().format(new Date());

Write this line in your service class which extends FirebaseMessagingService . The function is looked like

@Override
public void onMessageReceived(RemoteMessage remoteMessage) {
String currentDateTimeString = DateFormat.getDateInstance().format(new Date());
Log.d("time",currentDateTimeString);
    createNotification(remoteMessage.getNotification().getBody());
    }

I think an effective way would be use the Calendar class in your onMessageReceived() somewhat like this :

Calendar.getInstance().getTimeInMillis();
