When starting the app, change the volume. On exit, set the old volume again.

Hi folks,
I want a macro to change the media volume when an app starts in the background. When the app is closed, the macro should return to the original media volume.
Unfortunately, the trigger used in the macro does not work. What is the right way? Many thanks for your help

I think its not possible to know if an app is running in the background...
For your macro though, does it trigger when you open the app and when you close it? If not try removing the constraints, i believe they are very likely preventing the triggers from firing

The app starting in background invokes a message from the Android system: “Blitzer.de PRO wird über anderen Apps angezeigt” (Blitzer.de PRO is displayed above other apps). I tested the trigger “Notification Received” without constraints, but didn't get it to work either. Any Idea what's going wrong or how to handle?

I have improved the macro a little. In the Macrodroid development environment, the macro works perfectly. However, when the Blitzer.de app is started, the “Notification Received” trigger is not recognized, whereas the “Notification Cleared” trigger is.
Is this a bug?

Solved. The option ‘Ignore ongoing notifications’ must not be selected. Many thanks to the support team.

I thought about that, but I didn't think you hadn't tried that already so I didn't say anything. Sorry
