I am creating an app, and I would like to show a notification to the user after booting or rebooting, to inform the user that the app is available if interested.

From what I understood, the following code should work

public class BootReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    private static final String TAG = "BootReceiver";

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        Log.d(TAG, "BootReceiver triggered");
    }
}

The log unfortunately does not show up. If I understand correctly, everytime an action is performed (like: ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED or ACTION_USER_PRESENT), the onReceive() method should be triggered right? Or am I wrong?

For example, I know that these actions are restricted in recent androids, but I understood somehow that still onReceive() should work, and what may not work is the following code:

if (Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED.equals(intent.getAction()) {}

Also, I understood that these actions are restricted for background activities, so: is pushing a notification permitted? If yes, how?
