My WP8.1 App creates toast notifications that will appear - like SMSs - in the Notification center of the Windows Phone (this part works like a charm).

In one precise scenario, I would like to limit the number of notifications my app can have in the Notification Center at a given time:

"if a user has 3 notifications displayed, he cannot add another until he clears one of them".

Any idea how to hook into the notification center to know its state?

Thanks!

have you had a look on [this](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18566310/count-unreaded-number-of-missed-call-and-message-in-windows-phone) – Mohit S Sep 04 '15 at 08:14
Does the [ToastNotificatioHistory](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/windows.ui.notifications.toastnotificationhistory.aspx) API help with this at all? – Anya Shenanigans Sep 04 '15 at 08:24
Thanks but none of those will work. @Petesh, the GetHistory() method is only available with Win10. – Timothée Bourguignon Sep 05 '15 at 11:19
That's a shame. The API is not particularly granular :( – Anya Shenanigans Sep 06 '15 at 20:34
