useInAppNotificationsState

useInAppNotificationsState manages in-app notification state: open/close and the notifications list.

Best Practices

  • Use this hook as the single source of truth for in-app notification state.
  • Avoid duplicating notification lists in local state.
  • Keep open/close actions lightweight to avoid UI delays.
  • Limit notification list size for performance.
  • Clear notifications when the user navigates to the relevant screen.

Usage

const { openInAppNotification, closeInAppNotification, notifications } =
  useInAppNotificationsState();
