Since Nothing actually installs on the watch for this to work the on;y way this app could affect your watch is if it was just continually sending notifications to the watch, which you would notice.

I'll keep an eye out for possibilities, but I'm thinking some other app is the culprit.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Sweet! Installing now.

---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 PM ----------

Works great! What were some of the other issues you fixed?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
The whole reordering of actions to priorititize either the keyboard or the templates was messed up.
[Samsung Gear S] mrmrmrmr:
is it possible to add Skype reply with keyboard action ?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
only if it supports the wearable action. it should show up if it's supported.

A quick search implies that Skype does not have android wear support yet.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
I've been running the latest update and so far it's performed awesome.

Is there a way to populate more info in emails? I've attached some screen shots from the Gear S. Right now it shows the Gmail tab it falls under and the person who sent it. Is there a way to have more information? Maybe the subject and message itself? When I had the Gear Live android wear watch. I could read the whole email. In theory, your app can mimic that right?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
If you are using Gmail app you should get entire email. The icon I see on your screen doesn't look like Gmail.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
I use Gmail exclusively. I was going to mention about the icon. It changes, and I haven't figured out how or why it does. That icon matches my Google now notification on time to home. But I dismissed it, and the icon stayed.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Ok the icon is for the last notification processed. Odd your Gmail notifications don't look right. Can you post your version. I'll check it out tomorrow. I get my entire email on mine except when grouped from multiple senders but then it says something kine 2 messages received.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Gmail version screenshot attached.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Try the one I just posted, the issue was with Labels in GMAIL. I don't use them much so I didn't notice.

What I really need to do is allow for templates per application. Different notififcation have stuff in different places and they are not all compatible with each other in terms of optimal display.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Thanks!! Installing and will let you know.
[Samsung Gear S] mrmrmrmr:
does it work if we install and remove "android wear" ?

I mean, would Hangouts 2.5 work after uninstalling "android wear" ?
[Samsung Gear S] MrAwesome75:
I don't have Android Wear and I had to downgrade to Hangouts 2.4 to get Hangouts to work again.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Just install the android wear app. Thats all its checking for. No if you remove it the actions will go away again
[Samsung Gear S] MrAwesome75:
I haven't had any problems until they updated Hangouts the other day and I didn't have Android Wear. I'll install it now and see how it goes.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Yea 2.5 added something that looks for android wear installed before it adds the reply action.
[Samsung Gear S] MrAwesome75:
Well, it's a good thing I installed Android Wear since Hangouts updated itself in the middle of the night after I had downgraded it to 2.4. It does work on 2.5 now.

Thanks.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Have been using the latest update all day. No complaints.. Great Job!! Gmail is working perfect now, as is other apps with you app.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
good. Will take a while, but I want to add display templates so you can pick and choose different notification data and layouts to use with each app.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Question... When I had my Gear Live, one thing I liked were the notifications while using Google Maps to go somewhere. Is that something that could be implemented?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
If they come through as notifications on your phone then it should work, if not then I'm guessing it was some sort of google now or google+ custom implimentation.
[Samsung Gear S] SpaceFlyer:
Hi,

I've been using your app and I think it's really great, the only issue I found is with whatsapp notification replies: even though I select in the options to prefer the keyboard for replies I still get only the templates when I tap the reply button.

Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks.
[Samsung Gear S] syrguy1969:
I'll keep checking to see if anything changes, thanks to looking into it!
[Samsung Gear S] delock:
Can we compose a list of apps that are working properly with this awesome apps!!!
[Samsung Gear S] mrmrmrmr:
yeah, that would be great !

So far, I have only Hangouts and Gmail with "reply" button.

I tried Skype but it does not have reply option.
[Samsung Gear S] jclthei:
Compatible apps so far.

Here are the apps that I have been using with this app and my Gear S:

Hangouts (send/recieve texts using keyboard and voice dictation)

Facebook messenger (send/receive messages)

Yahoo! Fantasy Sports (notifications only)

Inbox (notifications only)

These are apps i use daily and work well for the most part.

Looking forward to the full paid version. This is an app i would pay for without any questions. Its very useful and works the way I need it to.
[Samsung Gear S] SpaceFlyer:
I managed to get replies with keyboard working on whatsapp notification.

I'm having another trouble though, basically when I get multiple messages from different contacts at the same time the app merges them in each single notification.

Example: I get 3 messages from 3 different contacts (1,2,3), on my gear s I get 3 notifications all like this one:

"

Contact 1: "How's weather there?"

Contact 2: "How's going?"

Contact 3: "What are you up to?"

"

Then I'm unable to reply to any of them since the sending contact isn't recognized.

Sorry for my English, I'm a bit rusty :P
[Samsung Gear S] stellok:
Apps that work

Can't believe how much effort the dev has put into this app. It is a lifesaver!

Yes have WhatsApp

Facebook Messenger

Gmail.

I don't use Hangouts, so haven't installed it.

Stock email; does not allow replies.

For me, one thing I would like to see is the option to Reply to All., not just the sender.
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
Will it ever have the option to retweet a notification from twitter?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
That's because the android notifications get grouped, I called this out on the main post. The only thing I was thinking was to offer auto dismiss on the phone so since each gets dismissed on phone as they get sent to watch they will rarely group on phone.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
As with most, only if twitter adds that to is android wear support.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Stock email gas it's own notifications with reply and do not support the android wear extensions. If you use this i suggest using the built in notifications.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Thinking back on this, as I've been using this app a lot lately. How difficult would it be to have choice 2 done? I can see now how choice 2 would make things easier.
[Samsung Gear S] stellok:
This feature is only supported in Samsung Galaxy Note 4 with the Note 3 there is no option to reply to emails from notifications in the stock email app on the Gear S .
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I have note 3 and I can reply to stock email. I stopped using it when I got my app working with gmail, but it works.
[Samsung Gear S] stellok:
Interesting. I was curious as to why I couldn't reply to emails. So I checked out the Samsung website regarding emailing from the Gear S.

As you may be able to see from the table, the Note 3 is not supported for replying to emails.

If you have this feature enabled, that's good. However I have not.

I'm using a UK Note 3 unbranded on the EE network, but I'm not sure this would make much difference, as Samsung have stated the feature is not supported.
[Samsung Gear S] stellok:
Ah... Reply works on Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with Android 4.4.4 not 4.4.2, which I'm currently on. I'll update when it becomes available.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I'm also on 4.4.2 but I have slightly stock based custom ROM, so maybe that's why.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
UPDATE on Hangouts 2.5.

I realized today that hangouts 2.5 has a huge memory leak with regards to using the android wear extensions that this app uses. Each message you get can take upwards of 6mb om memory that never get's released. With 2.4 this does not happen.

this may not happen with later versions of android, but I am not sure.

There is a minor leak with 2.4 and other notifications, but bar less than with Hangouts 2.5

I recommend rolling back to 2.4 if you are using Notification Extender, until I find a way to clean up the memory.

I will be looking to do some memory reduction across the board, but I am not sure if I can resolve the 2.5 issue, but will keep you posted.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
What issues would this cause? Lockups when dismissing a notification? I get occasional lockups when dismissing a Gmail notification, but havent had an issue like that with Hangouts.
[Samsung Gear S] amadeusz.odi:
For some reason app stopped showing notification ... I am on lollipop. Any one know maybe why?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Are you using hangouts 2.5? If so it's probably the memory leak I mentioned.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
No the leak is on the phone. Most likely symptom is notifications stop sending to watch.
[Samsung Gear S] mrmrmrmr:
how do we rollback to Hangouts 2.4 ?
[Samsung Gear S] amadeusz.odi:
I am not using hangouts... I think it was ok previous version.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
you should be able to uninstall updates from app manager. google hangouts 2.4 if what you roll back to is too old
[Samsung Gear S] jordant2:
I'm going to rollback hangouts. 2.5 won't allow me to reply to an old message. I like to keep messages so I can reply to people I message the most. While the previous hangouts did keep lumping messages together, I could reply to different people. On the latest version of hangouts, I can only reply to the last person I received a message from even if I choose a previous message from someone else. Not an issue with your app, just something with a hangouts update. I thought maybe this information could help in some way.
[Samsung Gear S] jollyjones:
This app is amazing! Seriously so much better than the other app of this nature. :)
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I'll take a look but right now I can't run the new hangouts because I run out of memory after 10 to 15 notifications. I've confirmed this is an issue with other apps that work the way mine do. It may only happen on devices running 4.4.2 or below, I am not sure.

I'm not sure if between this and the needing to have android wear app installed is them trying to prevent other devices taking advantage of the android wear extensions or if they just really wrote a buggy update.
[Samsung Gear S] ozaghloul:
I never used hangouts before and I have the app disabled on my non-rooted Note 4. Will this cause problems if I try your use Gear Notification Extender? It seems from the description that hangouts is the main feature of this app. I just need whatsapp reply feature.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
No WhatsApp should work fine. The hangouts and gmail options are just highlighted because they popular and the app that I use :D
[Samsung Gear S] dnkeyhnter:
Is there a way to get this to work with a non samsung phone? I followed the instruction in the Op but I can't seem to get it to work. Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Do you have Gear manager and it's notifications working?

Other than that you need at least android 4.4.2
[Samsung Gear S] madmeow2518:
Can i use THAI language keyboard for reply?. especially for line messenger.
[Samsung Gear S] dnkeyhnter:
I have gear manager notifications working and I'm also on 4.4.4… this app worked flawlessly with my note 2, I just can't seem to get it to work with my htc m8.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
If you have a thai keyboard on the S then it should work. My app just flags the action as needing keyboard it does not specify a language or what keyboard to use.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Try the debug option and make sure my app is getting notifications. If it does then I'm guessing there is some missing samsung component in what you loaded on the phone.
[Samsung Gear S] dnkeyhnter:
Debug option is selected but not getting any notifications in the debug window.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Sounds like you're missing the component that is used to send notifications to the watch. I assume the SDK communicate with Gear Manager and that's probably what's missing.

I have no idea how you would go about getting that installed.
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
Im getting notifications from my primary Gmail inbox but only the title from my forum's inbox. Any way i can fix that?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Are running the latest download? I fixed that in last version

friend where you can buy after the January 1? , Greetings from Venezuela!: Reír:
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
Is the latest in the first page?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Yes. if it is not showing details for emails in folders can you post what version of gmail you have?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Since I am still waiting on my seller status on both google and samsung, if that does not come through by monday I will post an extended version here.

I have no intention of leaving people hanging.

Update: Looks like I have my Google Play set up finally. Hopefully I can get a new version uploaded and available tomorrow sometime.
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
I have version 4.9 (1271612) on sprint S5.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I'm running 5.01 but I just tried it again and it does work. What you are describing is exactly what it did on the previous version. I suggest completely removing the the app and re-installing.
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
So i updated the Gmail app to 5.01 removed your app and installed again but not getting the emails from others folders ex:forums.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Not getting them at all or not getting the entire content of the email? You do need to turn on label notifications on your phone.
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
I have labels checked. Should i have priority or default on inbox type in settings?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
So you are getting notifications? and just not the body of the message?
[Samsung Gear S] rmont23:
It's working now i switched from default to priority in inbox type in Gmail settings.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
No Google play post today, but for good reason.

I found the memory leak causing hangouts 2.5 to have such a fit. Fortunately while it's their change causing the issue, it pointed me to the real issue, which is in my code. I am finishing a temporary fix now, and should be able to come up with a much better one soon.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Looking forward to purchasing your app in Google Play.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Yeah this memory issue's been bugging me, but I finally identified it and I'd rather have it at least bandaided before I post the app to the general public. You guys are much more understanding. :good:
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Been meaning to ask you a question, but don't want to go off topic here. I send it in a PM.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
App updated with Temp fix for memory issue.

Also extended the trial expiration til Feb 1. Just in case I don't get it on the play store by Jan 1.

Let me know if you run into any issues.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Thanks!! Downloaded and will report any issues.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Official App is available in Google Play. Link on OP. Let me know what you think. is 1.99 too much? Not looking to get rich here, just some money to buy toys for development and testing.

If you think 1.99 is too cheap you can always buy me a beer on my donation link :D

BTW it's in certification process on Galaxy App store as well, but that will take a while. with Google I can post updates almost instantly.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Just purchased. Thank you for this app. I had to uninstall the one from this thread, in order for the payment portion to show up. Thank you again..
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
you're welcome and yes unfortunately the betas are incompatible with google play
[Samsung Gear S] MrAwesome75:
Is this why I can get Hangouts messages for a while and then and then they suddenly stop? I got 11 messeges this morning and then they stopped going to my watch for the rest of the day. I deleted them from my watch just now and now the messages are going to my watch again. I want sure what you meant by "memory issues. "
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Yes. That should not happen with the latest beta or with the app on the play store. If it does let me know. The current fix is a band aid, but should work until I get a better solution this weekend.

If it is still happening go into running applications select the app and post how much memory it's using when it no longer sends notifications to the phone.
[Samsung Gear S] MrAwesome75:
Ok, I'll do that thanks. I guess I didn't know what you meant since this is the first issue I've had with it since I got it a few weeks ago. I'll keep an eye out and I'll purchase the app soon.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
So we're you running the latest when it happened?
[Samsung Gear S] MrAwesome75:
It started to happen this morning (around 11am PST). I had the latest version until I installed the one you just posted a little while ago. After updating a few minutes ago, I have version 1.1 running. I don't remember what the previous one was, but that was the one it happened with.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Ok let me know if it happens again. Hopefully it shouldn't and I'll have better memory management soon. Don't ask me why hangouts went fro under 1mb per notification to nearly 10mb, but at least it forced me to find my bug.
[Samsung Gear S] sonic76:
I buy this app, too.

the price is okay, this app is a real enhancement for the Gear S.

....there is a simalar app in the Galaxy Store but the UI is not really logical

Thank you for the great app, very good work!!!

I use your app couple of days and today I buy it :)

I have only question - in previous versions downloaded from XDA I got nice icons to Gear S by notifications ( Gmail, WhatsApp ) and now by all notifications I have only this your blue icon - Can you correct it again????
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Yeah I thought it was causing an issue but it appears it wasn't ill probably add that back.
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Hey Guys just a request, if you like my app please leave a review(This is my first app on google play), if you don't like it you're free to leave one anyway, though i'd always prefer asking for help before leaving bad review. I'm doing my best to resolve issues.

Either way I love getting feedback good and bad.

And by all means post requests here or in email from the store.

This is how the app gets better.

Thanks

Feedback on playstore done!

Thx for your good and fast Support here.

Viber message

Hello! Application work without problems for me, and is it possyble solve problem with answer on Viber message ?

Thanks!
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Unfortunately if the messages from multiple people get group in the notification on the Android notification, then you cannot reply. If the android app breaks them out to multiple notification, then it should work. It's a limitation of the Android Wear extension that we are using.

One option I am considering is to auto dismiss each notification on the phone that gets sent to the watch. This will stop the phone from grouping notifications(Mostly) however you will never have notifications on you phone if your watch is connected.

What do you think?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
I think you sent me an email. I'll take a look.

Basically this issue is that it's an ongoing notification, which I process and update the notification on the watch. In this case it's updating with call time every second. I'll add an option to turn off the sound and vibrate for updated notifications, however there are others that are useful (I use the update notification for Music player and it updates with each song and I want the vibrat), so i'll need to find a more long term solution, but for now you'll be able to turn them on or off globally.
[Samsung Gear S] VenpaCasa:
This app is a life saver thank you so much sir, that being said i also bought it on Google Play n left review.

Anyways, is there anyway u can make it a option we can choose to turn off and on? or pick which app NOT to separate?
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
yeah I'll need to work on that. It'll be more involved than just on/off. But that is what I want to do eventually.

BTW. I have the initial edition of the feature working and I will be updating shortly.

let me know what you think when you get it. I have tested with Gmail which is the app I use that groups. I do not use whatsapp, but it should work the same unless that app does something odd. Keep in mind that turning this option on will mean you have no pending notification on the phone for the apps you have selected.

I have set it to not dismiss if the watch is not connect. It will still send the notification to the Manager so it gets delivered when the phone connects, but it will not dismiss on the phone. So by no means does this mean that you will never have grouped messages
[Samsung Gear S] VenpaCasa:
i most definitely will. i dont use whatsapp either, i use hangouts and evolve sms. which reminds me, when i get texts i dont get the keyboard option to reply with that app so i been using the stock sms app
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Unfortunately if the notification from the app does not allow "free form input" then I can't add it. Some apps only allow selection from a list. Generally speaking the built in sms client is a better option than something that relies on notifications to communicate.
[Samsung Gear S] VenpaCasa:
Ahh, i see. IDK if the app supports it or not but it does have a pop up reply option, if that helps at all. lol
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
New Demo posted. Will go up on play store soon.

New version is up on the play store. Should show as 1.2.1. I've set it to roll out slowly since there are a lot of changes. Let me know if you guys start seeing it.
[Samsung Gear S] duongdn:
Been checking and haven't seen the update in the Playstore yet.
[Samsung Gear S] jongcruz:
Hi, I'm ready to buy this great app so I downloaded this test version and installed but I don't see any change...the messenger like whatsappa keep telling me to open on the phone to answer the message so what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
When you say you don't see any change, what do you mean? Did you follow the setup instructions? Are you still getting the default Gear notifications?

You need to

1) Enable Notifications in Gear Notification Extender

2) Check off notifications for Gear Notification Extender in the Gear Manager

3) Uncheck in Gear Manager any other application you want Gear Manager to handle notifications for.

4) Check any apps you want Gear Manager to handle notifications for in the preferences.

5) You may need to install the Android Wear Application to get it to expose actions.

If you've done all that and it's not working maybe try with another app like Gmail or Hangouts and see if it's just WhatsApp. Others here have used it with What's app, but maybe the version you have has a conflict.
[Samsung Gear S] jongcruz:
Thanks will try and post back!
[Samsung Gear S] gottahavit:
Hopefully it will make it's way through the system soon. I know I see it on one of my devices, but not the others yet.
