Notification for downloaded applications from play store

Okay, so I know there's going to sound a little weird, but whenever I download new applications from my play store, I don't see the check mark in the top left of my screen to notify me that the application it's really downloaded and installed on my phone. I have to swipe up on the app drawer And look for the application. I've checked all my notification settings for my play store in the notification settings menu. [emoji2369]

I think I've noticed that as well. Which exact notifications did you check?

I checked out these settings... still don't see the check mark for completed notifications in my notification shade. It's really weird. Attachment 315270

I have one for Finished Downloads, but I don't see that in your list.

Maybe try clearing defaults for the app?

I'll give that a shot. Yeah I saw that as well. I don't know why I don't have one for finish downloads.

Unfortunately, clearing cache didn't do much. mhmm

Sorry, I didn't mean clearing the cache (although that was still worth a try). I meant going to the Settings>Apps, selecting Play Store, then Advanced, then Open By Default, then Clear Defaults.

If you cleared the cache, then it's also worth clearing the app data as well.

I'm thinking it's a glitch, though, since I don't recall seeing an "App installed" notification consistently for the last few months or so either. Send feedback to Google.

Got you, tried that as well. Then I re-synced my play store. Unfortunately, still nothing.

Nah, negative mustang sorry dude! Stock pixel launcher.

This has been a bug affecting different phones and different Play Store versions. So far I haven't seen any definite solution and changing priority for the Play Store notifications don't fix it.

okay, didn't even realize it might have been a potential bug. Hopefully there's a fix soon for it. I mean, not a major major issue just kind of annoying sometimes.

Just out of curiosity, I'm on pixel launcher version 10. I didn't know if there were any other previous versions of the pixel launcher that existed. Lol.

I tried to downgrade my play store version to a prior version, but it wouldn't work. Damn, oh well.

Wow, that was awesome! I first Force uninstalled the updates for play store. Then downloaded a basic software game. The notification alerts for the play store event through automatically. Then, a side load of the APK file for the updated 18.3 version of the play store. Downloaded the same basic solitary game And there was no notification alerts. Although, not sure if I should continue using the downgraded version of the play store, so I have the updated version of the play store again. Good suggestion though thank you!!
