Toaster is an Android toast framework written in Java that fixes common Toast problems such as display failures on Android 11+ and background notification restrictions. It provides a simple API for showing, styling, and customizing toasts globally within an app.

Use cases

• show toast notifications reliably on Android 11 and later
• display toasts from background threads or when app is in background
• customize toast layout and style globally
• show success, error, warning, or info styled toasts
• replace the default Android Toast API with a more robust alternative

When to choose

• you need dependable toast display across Android versions including Android 11+ restrictions
• you want global custom toast styles or layouts with minimal code
• you need to show toasts from anywhere in the app, including background contexts

When to avoid

• you are building for platforms other than Android
• you prefer Jetpack Compose-based UI messaging over view-based toasts
• you only need simple toasts and are happy with the platform Toast API
