BroadcastReceiver in android 7.0

Question

I am working with a broadcastreceiver in android 7 but it is not working properly so Do we need to register the broadcastreceiver using registereceiver() inorder to work with broadcast reviver in android 7.

Answer 1

There are only 2 changes related to broadcast receivers in android 7:

1. Apps targeting Android 7.0 (API level 24) and higher do not receive CONNECTIVITY_ACTION broadcasts if they declare their broadcast receiver in the manifest. Apps will still receive CONNECTIVITY_ACTION broadcasts if they register their BroadcastReceiver with Context.registerReceiver() and that context is still valid.
2. The system no longer sends ACTION_NEW_PICTURE or ACTION_NEW_VIDEO broadcasts. This optimization affects all apps, not only those targeting Android 7.0.
