Research direction

Start by running the solution code and tracing the makeStatusNotification path to reproduce why no on-screen alerts appear. Check the notification behavior and relevant Android configuration, then confirm that the course app displays the expected notifications when the fix is complete.

Description

Hi All, can anyone help with this problem. I finally downloaded and ran the solution code ... and the 'notification's DON'T work in that app version either !!!! ... is a great shame : for a mostly BRILLIANT android-kotlin course : it kind of makes the course end on a bummer !!!! ... I suppose that's just another thing from the course to add to my "list of things to sort in future" list. SHAME :-(
