Hi there, Any one know snap service (with root permission) have capability to do below jobs? send notification to user use GTK library for UI It seems that we need to use user service (refer to : https://snapcraft.io/docs/system-usernames ). But it’s still fail, and there is no any idea so far… …

you need to split your app into two, then you can have a system wide daemon and a user session service (autostart app) and have them communicate via dbus or some (network)socket … system-usernames wont help here since this is just for dropping privs of system daemons but it will not allow other us…
