I'm starting with that and hoping I find a way to remove the need soon.

also to those saying messages when the watch is not connected and the dismiss option is set, that the notifications still go when the watch gets connected... I'm pretty sure I see the issue. Probably I will add an option to not send to the watch when disconnected. Right now Gear Manager is storing them and then forwarding. Some people may want this(I do).
[Samsung Gear S] Mender:
My meaning?

If you exactly know witch messages will fail, than remove reply buttom by this notifications.

If is it some lottery, than keep it as you propose.

:)

And concernig storing of notifications when disconnected - it depends:

- if I reconnect by BT - then I do not need see missed notifications

- If I reconnect remotely - I could be nice to get missed notifications

:)
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
ok there is an update in the OP. I am not done yet and need to clean a couple things, but if someone wants to sanity check that no message can go to the wrong recipient I would be grateful.

The one big issue remaining that I will fix tomorrow is that if you dismiss an individual notification on the phone it will mark it as dead even if it's the most recent. This should not be necessary

I have also removed the settings to dismiss the notifications on the phone when read or replied on the watch since this causes more dead notifications and since I now break out grouped messages it's not as useful. I'll look to see if there is a useful way to dismiss on the phone, but it may be better to leave it as is.

I will also look at the option to change the actions available on the watch rather than the error notification.

Let me know what you think or if you find a flow that lets you send replies to the wrong recipient.

also I only tested with gmail and hangouts. both of which exhibited the issue.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Do I need to wait for the Playstore update to try this out?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
no, but you will probably need to reinstall the app, it wont upgrade. You won't loose your purchase history though and if for any reason you did just email me and we'll fix it.

Google remembers what you bought so you can just uninstall and re-install from playstore when I release the next version.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
I'll install and it report back. Probably won't be until tomorrow. Getting ready to call it a night..
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Me too thanks for the support and patience.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
So what about this. While disconnected I won't send notifications. Then when you reconnect ill send any that haven't been dismissed? I don't have anything to tell me it bt or mobile connections.
[Samsung Gear S] gingerdude:
Love your app and just purchased it. Thanks for your continued support.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
It looks like replying to an old message goes to that person and not the last message received.

Although I had the toast message come up on the phone about dismissed message unable to reply.

I've also had some lock ups and the w-home not responding on the watch. I rebooted both watch and phone and all seems to be well now.

I'll test it throughout the day and let you know if I encounter anything.

Thanks again.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
I am encountering intermittent notifications from Gmail and LINE. For some reason it won't send a notification to my watch, but then sometimes it will. I've toggled everything, any ideas?

Update : Noticed that while I am on my phone, no notifications get sent to the watch. This could explain the issue I had with intermittent notifications. Is this set by default now? I had it set up so that I still get notifications regardless if I am on my phone or not.
[Samsung Gear S] juanseolop:
A great app. Only needs to turn off notifications on our terminal. Until that happens ... Any application that automatically remove the notification from our phone after X time?

[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Not sure I followed that. Are you saying you want a "Quiet Time" setting? where after 9pm it stops sending notifications? If that's the case then I totally agree and that is a high priority item as soon as these stability issues are resolved.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Lockups: Yeah I see some of these(mostly gmail) I think it's either the size or something in the content. I've had this even with the Gear Manager notifications, but I will definitely be looking at this soon.

Intermittent notifications: I am also noticing this on "some" gmails, have not seen it on hangouts. I think there is a silly bug somewhere in the changes I made, but will be looking at that tonight. I don't think it should have anything to do with being on the phone, or at least that's not a setting that I have or ever had in the app(though it's also a cool idea)

Going to fix the fact that I disable even the last notification if it's dismissed on the phone tonight. This should cut down on the "dead notifications" quite a bit I would think.

Thanks for testing.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
glad you like it, it will get much better shortly. Please leave a review on the playstore if you like the app.
[Samsung Gear S] jordant2:
This is actually a setting in gear manager. Its Limit Notifications. The watch won't alert you while the phone's in use as long as that's selected in Notifications in Gear Manager.

Everything is working great now! No more sending Hangouts to the wrong person. Once the bug where you can't even reply to the last message is fixed, it'll be perfect. But don't fix that if it causes the can't reply to previous messages bug to come back. I'd rather have this ability over anything else. Mostly use it when I don't have my phone.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
OK I posted a new update on the OP. Should now allow reply to last message for any given app even if dismissed from phone. Hopefully I also fixed the intermittent issue with message not coming through.

I have also figured out that certain content in emails is causing the slow response time openning the message, sometimes resulting in the not responding. I have not identified the exact cause but a fix for this should be coming soon.

Let me know if you have issue.
[Samsung Gear S] RiaanTel:
Thank you very much for a great app and the hard work you putting in. I am still running on version 1.2. Version 1.3 don't give me the option to reply to WhatsApp on the watch. With version 1.4 I am not getting any notification on the watch from WhatsApp at all. In the debug it is also not showing. I am using WhatsApp a lot. Hope you will look into this aswell
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Is this version coming updating the Playstore version, or just testing for now?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Just testing. Hopefully fixes the issues you had. Still have a couple things to clean up before uploading to play store. This was a rather major rewrite.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Did you try the update I just posted? You may need to uninstall and reinstall and re enable in gear manager. If that doesn't work let me know ill take a look.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Sounds good. Just installed it. I'll let you know if there are any issues. Thanks!
[Samsung Gear S] RiaanTel:
I did uninstall version 1.2 and install the latest version you posted but no messages from WhatsApp on watch and no data in debug window. Hope this helps. Thanks for the good work
[Samsung Gear S] gingerdude:
Done. 5 stars
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Are you getting notifications from other apps?
[Samsung Gear S] gidi:
One quick question if someone doesn't mind helping me out.

Will notificatiom extender work when the Gear S is remotely connected to Samsung phone?\

Thank you very much in advance.
[Samsung Gear S] RiaanTel:
Installed your latest version. Yes from Viber all my messages on watch. But no reply option on watch. This was like it in all previous versions. The app Line I only get the first message on watch and not any others. WhatsApp I don't get anything. If I look in debug windows I see what I explained above. Viber all. Line only first one. WhatsApp nothing. Thanks for making this app perfect
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I will have an update soon with a couple new things, but I'm curious what features you'd like to see?
[Samsung Gear S] DXL007:
Mine did the same thing, Note 4 AT&T, Stock unrooted Gear S. Had to restore the watch after as hard reset.
[Samsung Gear S] cflynt:
Mostly just the separation of it showing Hangouts etc. Looking forward to support for other apps and bugfixes. So far seems to be working great.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
After installing gear notification extender?

This is very strange.

Were you using the "Other" apps selection in settings?
[Samsung Gear S] DXL007:
Yes just from the extender. The only thing I was using the app for was hangouts. Nothing else
[Samsung Gear S] ejdavis:
Me as well, I was just wanting to use for hangouts but there's a possibility that I had other items selected as well. And I'm on the T Mobile version of note 4
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Ok well I don't understand how it's possible, but I'll pull the download for now until I figure out what might be causing it.
[Samsung Gear S] ejdavis:
Don't get me wrong, I want it to work so bad because I use hangouts for everything. If you get something changed about it I would definitely try it out again.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I understand, and I don't want to be draining people's watch batteries. My only assumption is that IF my app is causing this and it's not sitting there sending notifications over and over(you'd see it), then it must be something in the body of the message that is messing tizen up. I have a change that will in theory "cleanse" the message to be html friendly, if you are interested in giving it a shot PM me and I'll send it over.
[Samsung Gear S] soltanto_sergio:
is it possible to replay whatsapp messages??? this function is so usefull in android wear smartwatch :crying:
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Yes it should work with whatsapp, but I do not have an account and have not tried it.
[Samsung Gear S] soltanto_sergio:
if i can help you in some way, tell me.... happy to do it:o
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I have a new version, with many bug fixes and a few new features. If anyone is interested in testing please PM me. If someone with the lock up issue is daring enough to try I would love to see if the HTML markup fix has resolved this issue.

You can see a list of updates on the main page, but I am not going to post the APK to everyone again until I know it's not causing lock ups.

I can try it out if you need more
[Samsung Gear S] demmo81:
For me I think it will be perfect if u can reply for whatsapp or viber or Skype or even u can transfer the call of Skype or viber to the watch as a speaker or Bluetooth headset u know... it will be awesome so u reach the notification and just answer from the watch... Skype line viber...
[Samsung Gear S] DXL007:
Since I originally had the problem, I can retest to see if it comes back if you send me the link.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
sent you a link in PM. I want to limit this for now until we either eliminate or at least identify the lockup issue. Hopefully the issue with dealing with HTML will resolve the issue, thought I could never get it to lock up on mine.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Yes. I use it that way when I go hiking every morning.

---------- Post added at 07:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 AM ----------

This happens on LINE for me also.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I see gmail stops after a while still, looking at it.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
I noticed I was getting double notification sometimes also. Only happened a couple times.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
New update posted. Should fix the issue with gmail stopping, maybe Line as well.

Should also fix the issue with gmail causing the watch to pause and stutter when openning.

Will look at whatsapp tomorrow...

Beyond that mostly just need to get dimissmal working reasonably well again and it should be read for playstore
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
any specific application?
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
It wasn't really anything important. I just your app to handle all most of my notifications, Gear Manager only handles a couple..

But to answer your question, it was the CNN app and words with friends.
[Samsung Gear S] RiaanTel:
I tested the new app you posted. The app LINE is working as I get all messages on my watch. Same as version 1.2. Thanks for the good work
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Latest version has been solid. No issues yet today.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Good to hear, yeah I ran all day today as well with no missed emails or lockups. I am testing whatsapp now, but it seems to be working fine for me
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Is whatsapp working for you now? I finally set it up today and it seems to work ok.

Update: OK I see the issue with whatsapp. Ignores first message. I'm working on it.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Posted what will probably be the last test build before going to the playstore tomorrow assuming no issues are found between now and then.

Should fix Whatsapp and has a couple new features noted on the OP.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Thanks!! Installed and will report any issues.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Been meaning to ask... are you still working on trying to break up the notifications by source or sender?
[Samsung Gear S] RiaanTel:
Thanks agian for the good work. Everything is working for me. Whatsapp no problems. Maybe in the future look at reply function on watch for Viber. When you put this version on play store I will buy it as it is worth it.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I keep looking at options, but so far the only way I've found is to actually have different applications on the phone. It's something Samsung should add support for. But I'll keep looking.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
My guess is Viber doesn't support android wear. But I can take a look when I get a chance. it could be something weird similar to what happenned with WhatsApp
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
New app is up on google play, Thanks again to everyone who helped me work out the latest kinks
[Samsung Gear S] POWERPALM:
Friend and I bought the application in Google Play but the version 1.3.1 is out there
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Sweet! Thanks again!

---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------

He just released it, so my guess is it'll take a couple hours to refresh on the playstore.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I see version 1.4 when I look, so you should see it soon.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
24 hours and no issues. Solid so far. Thanks again!
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
Will this thread stay open or be closed soon?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
This thread will stay open as far as I'm concerned. It's a great place to come and ask questions or make requests. I will also from time to time post beta test versions when I make major updates. Not sure if I will keep a running demo here or not, but probably though it may not always have the latest code or be the same as what's on google play.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
I asked because I was late to try it out. I am uncertain about purchasing the app so I am trying the version in the OP.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Right now they are identical except the demo will expire on Feb 1. But definitely give it a shot before buying. If you have questions let me know.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
I noticed something I think is strange. I loaded your app last night and let it run for a few hours. The watch was turned off but not the phone. When the watch was turned on it sent old emails. Is this normal?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
There is a setting to turn that off. Normally the app continues to send to Gear Manager which will catch up with the watch when the watch gets connected, but I add an option to Pause sending notification when the watch is disconnect.

Give it a shot.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
I changed that setting and will see tomorrow if it solves the problem.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
I waited under a day and turned on the watch yesterday I changed the,settings as you suggested. I still got some old emails. Can you remind me what the red button with a curved arrow does?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
That's the reply button
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
Reply on the Gear or phone, since I removed your app temporarily.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Where are you seeing the button? on the watch? If you removed my app from your phone then these are probably leftover notifications. Samsung does not remove them from the watch just because you uninstalled from the phone.
[Samsung Gear S] tishfire:
Hi. I am testing this app. When i click open on device. My note 3. It didn't open to the notification app immediately pass lock screen like how it did with the original Gear s notification did from the watch
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Hmm mm. Interesting ill take a look. It could be a samsung trick they built in for their app, but maybe I just missed something
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
The red arrow button on your app. Does it create a gmail reply on the Gear or Phone when you select "yes"?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
It replies through the phone but you need my app installed
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
Thanks for the explanation. I will reinstall your app later today and see if it will send only current gmail.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
So since this app is basically rock solid now, are there any new surprises you are working on? =)
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Working on a few small bugs, but for big changes I am working on adding per app configuration settings.
[Samsung Gear S] aslandholm:
I have uninstalled and re-installed the app to pic up the latest update. The notifications I had forwarding where life360, messegas+, Messenger and Jorte. They all used to work except Jorte calendar reminders (which you said you would look into) before the update and now none of them are working. I have a Note 3 with notifications enabled, notification sound, vibrate, hangouts, pause notifications when Dis, dismiss watch notifications and Dismiss dead notifications all checked in the gear notification extender app and in my Samsung gear app I have gear notification extender and incoming calls checked. Is there anything else I should be doing? Thanks!
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Several other people have reported needing to install Android wear for apps other than hangouts. I'm not sure this is your issue, but it seems more and more apps are checking that android wear are installed before adding the reply capabilities to the notifications.

When you say Messenger? you mean facebook? I have this installed and can confirm it works with the latest version.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
Gmail still seems to be hotbor miss on getting all current ones on the watch. Perhaps the main design was to have the phone and watch on all of the time?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
So can you tell me what is happenning? All that should be happenning right now is IF the watch is connected then no notifications get sent and notifications that come in during that time will never get sent to the watch. Once you reconnect all NEW notifications that come in should get sent. Perhaps what you are looking for is for when you reconnect any notifications that you have not dismissed on the phone get sent over? I can probably make that change if that is what you are seeing.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
What I am looking for is when remotely connected to receive all emails currently unread on the phone. I find no need to see old emails when the watch is off. Once that works I may have other concerns.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Ok so I had to take a step back on this one. I think I am missing something. If you have "Dismiss on Watch" enabled and you dismiss the notification on the phone while the watch is disconnected those notification will not go to you watch when it's reconnected. Only the ones you have not dismissed will get sent. I just confirmed this works.

Am I missing something here?
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
I have on dismiss dead notifications and dismiss watch notifications. I will try to may more attention due a weekday when I have higher gmail traffic.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
If this is the behavoir you want you will want to disable the pause notifications setting. Right now this turns them off completely when not connected.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
Pause notifications is not selected. I am confused since do I not want that flag on to stop sending notifications when my Gear iscoff?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Not if you want ones you haven't dismissed to come to the watch when you connect it. Basically if that setting is on then My app does not send anything to gear manager until you reconnect the watch., which means only notifications that come in after you reconnect will go.

However if you leave that off then notfications still go to gear manager when watch is disconnected, however as you dismiss them on the phone they get dismissed in Gear Manager and should not go to the watch when reconnected. anything you haven't dismissed should stay in Gear Manager and update to the watch when you reconnect.
[Samsung Gear S] ronaldheld:
I turned that flag on. I will report back on what happens when I turn on the Gear.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
New version is posted on OP. Main change is that you can now configure most settings either globally or on a per-app basis. This will enable more settings that specifically needed for certain apps to make them more useable.

For instance you can now turn on Mute ongoing notifications for skype so it doesn't buzz for every second on the timer, but leave that unchecked for google music so you know when the next song start.

You can also try the experimental function to have multiple vibrates and sounds play for each notification. Personally I find this annoying, but someone asked for. We'll see how people like it.

Assuming no one finds major issues this will post on google play soon.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Interesting changes. Will install and report any issues. Stumbled onto something the other day, well at least its new to me. Using Google Play Music I get the cover art and I get the options of going to the next track or previous, stop or pause. I get the same thing with Spotify too. Pandora doesn't play nice though. App keeps getting better and better. Thanks again!
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Yeah that's a feature I added a while back. It's in the title page. I'll look at pandora, I thought it worked ok other than cover art.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Man.. how did I miss that? LOL.. I've just been using the stock music player on the Gear S to change tracks.

I do notice with Spotify that there is no cover art too.

Off topic question.. I use Gtasks for my daily tasks. On the phone, when a task is due, I can drop down the notification box and select snooze or completed. Can these actions be mirrored on the watch? Right now it just pops up with only an option to dismiss.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Yep, on this list of things I want to add.

With spotify, is the cover art in the notification on the phone?
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Yes. As is with Pandora too.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I don't get controls or cover art with pandora, on the notification on the phone that is. Is that something that comes with Pandora One?
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Might be. Attached is a screenshot of my Pandora Notification.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
hmmm, must be pandora one. So what works and doesn't? On spotify I see the issue with no cover art and will look at it. But all my controls work.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
You're right. It only shows in Pandora One. Attached is a screenshot of regular Pandora.
