Solution 1:

Self answer: It was because of backup content. In my code, I used SharedPreference to check if the notification channel was created. But BackupManager saved my SharedPreference even after app was removed, so when the app is reinstalled, notification channel is not created. I changed AndroidManifest.xml as shown below and it cleared my SharedPreference. Now it works very well.

<application
android:allowBackup="false"
android:fullBackupOnly="false"
android:fullBackupContent="false"
