Multiline notifications

Question

I need to display a few lines of text in the notification. The minimum Android SDK is 4.0.3. or Level 15, however "big notifications" are only available from level 16.

What can I do to show all lines in the notification for API level 15?

Answer 1

I used this:

.setStyle(new NotificationCompat.BigTextStyle().bigText(message))

I didn't test it on Android 4.0.3, but I am not getting any compiler- or lint-errors.
