Try updating to flutter_foreground_task: ^1.0.8.

And using the update function, you can update the notification title and content.
Whenever the notification is updated, a sound or vibration may occur.
Therefore, it is recommended to set channelImportance and priority to LOW or less.

  final flutterForegroundTask = FlutterForegroundTask.instance.init(
    notificationOptions: NotificationOptions(
      channelId: 'notification_channel_id',
      channelName: 'Foreground Notification',
      channelDescription: 'This notification appears when a foreground task is running.',
      channelImportance: NotificationChannelImportance.LOW,
      priority: NotificationPriority.LOW
    ),
    foregroundTaskOptions: ForegroundTaskOptions(
      interval: 5000
    )
  );

  int count = 0;
  void startForegroundTask() {
    flutterForegroundTask.start(
      notificationTitle: 'Foreground task is running',
      notificationText: 'Tap to return to the app',
      taskCallback: (DateTime timestamp) {
        print('timestamp: $timestamp');

        count++;
        flutterForegroundTask.update(
          notificationTitle: 'count: $count',
          notificationText: 'count: $count'
        );
      }
    );
  }

The update function does not have to be implemented inside taskCallback. However, please use it after calling the start function.

This solution provided does not work anymore for anyone trying to do what the original user wanted to solve. I'm using the latest version of this and this solution does not activateFlutterForegroundTask.update. Is there anyway to fix this?

Many things have changed since version 2.0.0. check readme.

flutter_foreground_task: ^3.0.0
The notificationTitle and notificationText are not updating

await FlutterForegroundTask.startService(
      notificationTitle: 'xxxxxx',
      notificationText: 'yyyyyyy...',
      callback: startCallback,
    );

To update the notification title and text when the foreground service is started, you need to use the updateService function.

If the notification title and text are not applied in the startService function, check whether the iconData data actually exists in the AndroidNotificationOptions setting. For testing, remove the iconData setting and run the service.
