Android N Notification actions

Is it possible to change the text color of 'FIRE'/'AMBULANCE'/'POLICE'?

Or add icons to them like in older versions of Android?

In kotlin you can add this function for text color change:

private fun getActionText(@StringRes stringRes: Int, @ColorRes colorRes: Int): Spannable? {
            val spannable: Spannable = SpannableString(applicationContext.getText(stringRes))
            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N_MR1) {
                spannable.setSpan(
                    ForegroundColorSpan(applicationContext.getColor(colorRes)), 0, spannable.length, 0
                )
            }
            return spannable
        }

After that you just call it from builder:

builder.addAction(R.drawable.ic_call_end, getActionText(R.string.reject,R.color.red), rejectPendingIntent)
builder.addAction(R.drawable.ic_accept, getActionText(R.string.accept,R.color.green), acceptPendingIntent)

You can add more button in your notification.

To add formatting in your text (bold, italic, line breaks, color and so on), you can add styling with HTML markup

To change action text color use:

HtmlCompat.fromHtml("<font color=\"" + ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.custom_color) + "\">" + context.getString(R.string.fire) + "</font>", HtmlCompat.FROM_HTML_MODE_LEGACY)

as the action title CharSequence, like:

Notification notification = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context, channelId)
        ...
        .addAction(new NotificationCompat.Action.Builder(
                            R.drawable.ic_fire,
                            HtmlCompat.fromHtml("<font color=\"" + ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.custom_color) + "\">" + context.getString(R.string.fire) + "</font>", HtmlCompat.FROM_HTML_MODE_LEGACY),
                            actionPendingIntent))
                    .build())
        .build();

NotificationCompat.Builder builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(context);
    builder.setColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.colorPrimary));

NotificationCompat.Builder.setColor method is used to set an accent color for the notification, which will also be applied to action buttons' text.

To change the text color of actions and also place an icon to the left of them, use following example.

NotificationCompat.Builder(context).setColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.yourColorResourceHere))
.addAction(android.R.drawable.ic_menu_close_clear_cancel, "Fire", myPendingIntent);
