Notifications for Gear S

[Therealm80]

You don't need that app anymore for Textra and FB Messenger. You can reply from gear s without notification extender.

Update: If I change the "Choice presentation template" the I see a full gray silhouette, but the message is always the temp - weather conditions. Never the actual message.

Those are Google Now cards. That's all you're going to get from them on a Gear S.

Hello there...
since many weeks, NfGS stops sending messages to the watch because it seems that it is not active anymore in the android notifications listener. I know that the developer knows about this problem. I have to deactivate and activate NfGS in the notifications listener every few hours.

If I check the box that should show up an icon in the task bar to avoid that the app gets killed by the system, it doesn't show me this icon even if I reboot my device several times. I had the icon exactly one time but since then I can do whatever I want, I am not able to bring it back and so the service gets again killed every few hours.

What can I do?

I use Gear Notification Extender. Got it on the Play Store. It has stayed flawless for well over 6 months now.

Hi,

go to App Settings and enable that option to avoid android kills the App. Then go to Notifications listeners and disable and enable the App again.

This should work ok.

if not, I will publish a new version with that option enabled by default.

Thanks

I just begin to use this app and I noticed that it's very difficult to read the notifications on the watch as the text is white over a background very clear... Is it possible to have the chance to choice the color of the texts and/or of the background? More an option to enable/disable the showing of avatars on the watch?

Hi,

did you try to change the default template at settings?

There is another App from Gear Store Apps called Notifications Wear Style for Gear S that let's you to change quite things on the gear interface. Have a look!

I am trying this app, but cannot have the wear style as i always get gear s default layout.. and where may i change the gear s interface ??? More i don't get all the notifications from the apps i choose to be notified... I see there are many probs with tis app

 

[maufabiani]

I see your video about wear style but on my note 3 i don't have the options to change the interface of the app... why ?? Maybe it's Lollipop ???

 

[maufabiani]

Sorry, but maybe i misunderstood the behaviour of this app.. Is this intended to work in wear style only for the apps listed in the options ? For all the others i will get the default layout of gear s? SO in this way i am forced to enable from gear manager the notifications for all the other apps i want to get notified ? Please let me know understand,....

Hi,

you must select the kind of notifications you want to receive in every App, but not the same in both Apps.

For instance, you want to receive the whatsapp messages on Wear Style, then you don't select whatsapp in Gear manager.

In Wear Style you must run the App on the Gear as well.

Please, read the help.

I keep getting 2 notifications for each email message.
In Gear Manager i only checked the "Notifications for Gear S" in the notifications (all other notifications are unchecked).
In Notifications i unchecked all "Notifications" ("Read GMail Notifications", "Read default Email Notifications", ...), enabled the "Do you want to be asked for ..." and enabled my email application as notification.

The problem is i still get 2 notifications for each message, both of them have the "Notifications" name and icon. When i open the notifications, one of them has a small icon for the email app while the other has a bigger icon.

Also, if i clear one of the notifications, both of them disappear and the notification on the phone is also gone.

I also enabled the "Enable this option if android ..." just to make sure the app is not killed by low memory.

Hardware :
Phone : Note 3 with 5.0 version
GearS : SM-R750 with BOG2 firmware
Email App : CloudMagic

So, does anybody have any idea what i can do to get only 1 notification for each email ?
