So android wear like Samsung has two modes.

1) Add extra information to notification, like reply options. My app maps these two together so we get android wear support

2) A two part app, where one half runs on the phone and the other half on the watch. This is how my new video app will work. There is not way I can make these apps work for Samsung.

I'm not saying your SMS does #2, but it's a possibility. Another possibility is that many apps I've tested have very poor android wear support and only add the reply to certain notifications. There are many email apps that claim to have Android Wear Support, but in testing I could not get them to add the right actions consistently.

Hopefully things will improve, though unfortunately no one appears to be adding native Samsung support.

gottahavit anything on my issue with lollipop and S5 not getting full content?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Sorry, been dealing with Samsung stupidity with app approval for my video app. Will look soon.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
SO I tried it and it looks like all I'm getting from gmail on lollipop notifications is the subject. I'll have to dig some more this weekend.
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
Ok thx.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
ok I think I got it fixed. GMail totally changed what it was doing with notifications with lollipop. This should be compatible with both. Please test out with Lollipop, I think there are cases where notificaitons no longer have the text at all, but this should resolve most issue.

Let me know if you run into issues.

Download on the OP. If you confirm it's fixed I'll upload to Play Store tomorrow.
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
Ok thx i will let u know.

Good I'll upload to Google tomorrow

UPDATE: New version posted on Google Play with this fix, nothing else should have changed from 1.4.8

Hello can I only use pre determined words for text messages on gear s. I would love to buy the app but it doesn't look like I can reply to a message like I would want to. Love to work and not trying to put you down, I have been following this thread for awhile but somethings are still unclear for me.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
In the app settings, you need to choose "prefer keyboard", then the pre-determined words becomes a second option.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
What he said, You will usually have both options(some apps won't allow free text input). You get to choose which one is the default reply option on the main screen using that preference.

App still works great. I upgraded my Note 4 to Lollipop yesterday now Viber is giving me inconsistent notifications. This started when I downloaded version 1.5.0 from the playstore. Still when I walk out of range with my watch and it disconnect from Bluetooth and it reconnect all notifications on watch went from read to unread. Other than that it is working well. Thanks for all the hard work
[Samsung Gear S] LanFox:
Good afternoon. Bought your program and it works well . But after upgrading to version 1.5 notifications stopped coming to watch. I did not change any settings . On previous version everything was fine. Tried to delete and re- set . :crying: Samsung galaxy note 3, Andrioid 5.0
[Samsung Gear S] amadeusz.odi:
Every time I receive some notification its opening this app with settings. Can any one tell me why? Thanks

[Samsung Gear S] LanFox:
nice to hear that I'm not alone )) I hope the author will solve the problem .

noticed that the second message comes , if not read the first one.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
There seems to be some issues with lollipop. Can you tell me what application you are having issues getting notifications for?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
You have Smart relay turned on in gear manager. This tells the phone to open the app that sent the notification to the watch when you turn it on.
[Samsung Gear S] LanFox:
non notifications with viber. The previous version, all was well on loliop.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
That is very strange since the only change was to add an optional piece of data that gmail is using. If I send you the previous version can you test if it resolves your issue?

Ok I have one idea, can someone who is having issues with 1.5 give this a shot? I can't test with my s5 right now and my note 4 hasn't ugraded to Lollipop yet.

This one that you gave us to download is solving my Viber problem. Will do testing later and tell you. So far it is good
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
That's good news.

Yes this is the demo version, I will upload the fix to the paid version on Google play shortly. Hopefully my note 4 will upgrade to lollipop soon and I can do some more detailed testing as there are probably other minor changes.

Thanks for testing.
[Samsung Gear S] sonic76:
Thank you, i have no luck with this.

I still have no idea why this is necessary, I have never had this issue and I switch from demo to paid version all the time without wiping. Either way thanks for posting this to help folks.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
If you enable notifications in Gear Manager do they make it to your watch?

If not then there is something wrong with your GM,

If Gear Manager notifications work and my app does not then try turning on the debug option and see if my app is even getting notifications?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
The updated app is now on google play
[Samsung Gear S] sonic76:
Okay withe youre version from previous post it Works!

But with PlayStore version not!

thank you and sorry
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
wait for 1.5.2 to hit the play store(should be coming through any minute)
[Samsung Gear S] sonic76:
Thank you, the update works good with lollipop on Note 4

Glad to hear it. Let me know if you run into other issues.

Did you install Android Wear, or enable Notification Access? It is the first item in this App. If neither of those were done, you wont get notifications.

[Samsung Gear S] DXL007:
I will give it a try and report back.
[Samsung Gear S] DXL007:
So I reinstall the app on my watch, I ensured that the only thing that was checked was hangouts and nothing else including the others. As soon as I enabled it on my phone my watch went crazy again switching from screen to screen almost like it was being controlled remotely. I try to interact with it to try to settle my screens down or at least reset it and I was unable to. So I had to do a hard reset on the watch and then repair it with my phone to get it to work again. So I'm not sure what is causing the issue but it seems to still persist.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Just my. 02.. I've been using version 1.0 for about 4 days now. Have had zero issues. Works for other apps other than Hangouts. My Gf has it on her Gear S as well as has zero issues as well. If it makes any difference, she has an AT&T Note 4 paired with an AT&T Gear S. I've got a Sprint Note 4, paired with an AT&T Gear S.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
That is so strange. Thanks for trying. Did you try uninstalling from the phone first? My only guess now is something is causing ongoing continuous notifications to come through. But uninstalling the app on the phone should stop it.

I guess ill keep digging
[Samsung Gear S] DXL007:
I did remove it from the phone first, but was unable to work the watch still. I also tried restarting the watch too. Nothing. Had to hard reset the watch and restore from back up.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
So my next questions to try to arrow this down

1) Is your phone and watch set to English? it shouldn't matter but who knows

2) Did it start going crazy when the first hangout came in? or was there an active hangout notification when you enabled the app? or did it just start as soon as you enabled it?

3) when it started going crazy did it look like it was showing a new notification? or was it showing other screens from you phone?

4) Are you connected using BT, WIFI or Mobile?

5) what version of android is running on your phone.

Beta Testing Gear Notification Extender

I would be more than happy to beta test this app. I have and own a Gear S
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Thanks for the offer, I don't like(or understand) that this app can lock up certain watches. I really don't want to risk having many others suffer this problem.

I'm digging through the code trying to find something that could cause this. It really shouldn't be possible, but apparently it is. Unfortunately I have not been able to make it happen on mine.

Gear Notification Extender

Even the more reason to test it on different watches ie. carriers, Ill accept full responsibility if any damage. I have some computer experience, although am not a code writer, or programmer I do have the knowledge to troubleshoot

software and programs, let me give it a try on my gear plz.
[Samsung Gear S] cflynt:
Many of us here haven't had the same issue, but all aside, it is very admirable to see a dev focus so hard on trying to solve the issue on the few. So far the first release is still running like a top. I love it. My only suggestion to the users having issues. I noticed on one reply that it was mentioned that he wiped the phone and then restored the backup. Which to me says all the existing apps he had got restored. I am wondering if it is a particular app that could possibly be causing the issues, like another notify app like notify gear or something. Not saying it is that app but any app could conflict possibly. I would be curious to know on a clean wipe and not restore of the existing apps and just installing this app if the problems persist. I know it is a lot of work, but that is what troubleshooting is all about. All about how bad you want the app to work, you need to provide the dev the tools to see. Hopefully that helps.
[Samsung Gear S] ejdavis:

I haven't had any issues, in fact works WONDERFULLY. So seriously hoping it can be figured out so development continues. Let me know if you need any other information. I have had Other and Gmail checked before but at present wasn't needing it so unchecked it. But have no issues with the phone freaking out or anything.

[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I need opinions from folks.

Unfortunately there is apparently no way to break out notifications into buckets within the same application.

Choice 1:

Leave it as is, all notifications go in once bucket. I can do something with the icons next to the notifications to identify them

Choice 2:

Create a Hangouts,Gmail, Other specific versions of the app. So you'd have a separate app for each application you are trying to handle notifications for and maybe then one for "Other"

I'll keep looking for options, but it doesn't look good.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
I'm going to go with choice one. One app to handle it all. Different icons will help.

I assume you mean facebook messenger? Does it not have the reply option? or does it just not send the message? if you don't have the reply option, try installing android wear application on your phone. Don't run it just install it.

Of course... Dumb me... Now the notifications come from the app not from gear manager...

Google's Inbox app

Hi [MENTION=2143854]gottahavit[/MENTION],

I am currently using Google's Inbox app instead of Gmail but I do not see the notifications on my Gear S. I already ticked it in the "Choose Additional Applications" section.

Thanks
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Viber needs to support android wear, then it should just start working.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
No Notifications? or no reply option? are you getting android notifications on the phone? Keep in mind my app works from Notifications on the phone, not from anything internal to the individual applications.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
I think we touched on this topic before, but being able to snooze or mark done tasks.

Android wear does turn by turn notifications for Google Maps. Is this something that can be implemented?

Grouping notifications by the app it came from? I know this was mentioned at an early stage in this app, and I was against it at the time, but using this app more and more, I can see how it would make it easier to read notifications, especially older ones.

Thanks again! Your video app rocks too.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I wish I could do grouping but samsung sdk only allows it if I have different apps.

Not sure I know what you mean by snoozing done tasks?
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
I use Gtask, and having the option to mark done, or snooze, or even dismiss the task from the watch.

What about turn by turn notifications for Google Maps? I know when I had my LG G watch, it would pop up with the next step when using navigation.

I think I will set up my LG G Watch again and see if there is anything useful that can be brought to the Gear S.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
"I use Gtask, and having the option to mark done, or snooze, or even dismiss the task from the watch."

so you mean something like having a setup that if the notification isn't ackknowleged in a certain time that is comes back? Sorry I may be missing this one.

On turn By Turn, I think that you'd need a watch side app for that integrated into whatever nav software you have on the phone. unfortunately google has closed up so much of it's non android specific apis.
[Samsung Gear S] DaRkMyk:
Hello, no notifications at all on the Gear S but have on my Android Phone. Inbox notifications works on the official Gear Manager but not on G.N.E.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Then likely you are missing a setup step. you need to enable GNE in Gear Manager Notifications. You need to enable GNE to get notifications(First option on the setup screen), even if you have it select unselect and reselect. You need to enable your app(Inbox) in the GNE application list. Also make sure you have android wear installed on your phone.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
BTW for those using Smart Relay, I finally got it working somewhat on my phone and have it now able to bring up the real app message rather than just launching my app. I have a couple more bugs I want to fix and I'll have an update out soon.
[Samsung Gear S] alanshortt:
Quick question Notification Access in GNE - check GNE and Samsung Gear??

I've returned to GNE based on the positive reviews here.

I did experience some of the problems referred to above - multiple notifications - the watch going haywire (but not in my case heating up) etc probably not related to your app but more likely my settings and having other notifiers enabled

whatever I'm doing a clean reinstall (again)

clearly i need to check GNE in your app's settings on the phone - but should i also check Samsung Gear in the settings?

sorry if that's a stupid question - i think the answer is obviously yes - but somewhere in my GS journey, particularly wrt to email notifications, I was getting multiple copies of the same emails over and over again and spent most of my time trying to delete them and watching a big white 0 going round and round

so I unchecked all notifications in GearManager and am now wondering the best way forward

thanks

You do need to enable Notifications for Gear Manager, but not the individual notifications that you have enabled in GNE. I have noticed a couple email notifications coming through duplicated a couple times since the latest update. I need to look at why this is happenning. seems to only be Gmail.

Any viber/skype news?

I really like the app and I'm thanking you for making it, the only flaws with all this notifications issue would be reply option for vibe and notifications + reply from Skype.

Read some previous posts and I understood that it might be a issue from them not having support for gear. and that you will look into viber to see if it had the same issue as whats up.

Any news about them?

Thanks :)

[Samsung Gear S] AstainHellbring:
I am using opsgenie. They have it so one can ack an alert right from the android wear device. I asked them about what they did and they said:

We have not done anything special to make it work with Android Wear. We added the ability to ack alerts directly from push notifications and it looks like that works from Android Wear as well. Do they not work with Tizen watches? If not, we'd have to investigate what needs to be done at some point. Whether we will add support and when will highly depend the level of effort that will be required.

Best Regards,

OpsGenie Support Team

What would be needed to get this to work from this app?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Have you tried it? If it works with notifications through android wear then it should work. I am not familiar with the app however.
[Samsung Gear S] AstainHellbring:
I get the notification on the watch but the actions are not there. On Android in the curtain I have expanded options to ack/close the alert and on android wear you can do the actions there as well but on my gear s it doesnt show any options other than show on phone.

ahh ok, I don't handle those actions yet, but that is on my list of things to add.
[Samsung Gear S] someonexh:
I have GNE finally working but for some reason Android Wear will NOT connect to my watch. It will sit at "connecting" all day.. I had to "forget" my watch so it wouldn't keep trying. Anyone know why? I have GM installed and working properly and even tried to disconnect that just in case. Any ideas?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Android wear won't connect, do not try to run it. It just needs to be installed so that certain apps will add the actions to the notifications.

Finally! Thanks, it was killing me. I would disconnect GM and everything to try to get it to connect. Reboot.. reinstalls... now I can rest. :)
