First of all, great app !!

Although I have a Gear 2 with custom AW rom (originally it comes with Tizen OS), this app really makes my watch even better than it already is.

One question though :

Where did the option go to automatically read out loud messages (like WhatsApp) when driving ?

I remember seeing that option, but I can't see it anymore

Keep up the good work, this app has a lot of potential.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Lindsey:
I will do that

where do you disable native watch ring I only have choice of vibrate or ring tone?
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Denonfd:
Dont work.....

So, i have a Problem with Notifications and my OnePlus X and Huawei Watch. Notifications are enabled, "Does your...have a Speaker" is enabled, Applications are enabled - but there is no Ton for incomming Messages at the Watch.....

Running latest Version !

But it worked a few Days without Problems....

If i look into "Show Notifiaction History" it says "Notification off" - but the Notification on Watch and in Settings is turned on !

I've tried to join beta testing but the link to the app seems to be dead

[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Jaydawgx7:
Not sure if this thread is monitored still or not, but I'm having problems with sound notifications on the Huawei watch. After installing the app, it worked perfectly, but now I can't get it to work. If I restart my phone and watch, the first notification I get will make sound, and then it stops working again. I've tried uninstalling the app and deleting the app folder to no avail. Anyone have any ideas or know of any other possible wear apps that could be interfering. I know this is still in beta and will have bugs, but I just can't figure out why it was working perfectly and just stopped...
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] JimSmith94:
It's out of beta and in the Play Store, so maybe try that version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.preiss.swn.smartwearnotification
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Jaydawgx7:
Thanks, I'm using the play store version, but thought that was still considered beta. I factory reset my watch and re-paired it and it worked for about an hour, now the same thing. I'll just keep playing with it I guess and wait for more updates. Absolutely love the app when it works
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] JimSmith94:
I hope someone figures it out for you. I'll be switching to this watch from an LG Urbane on Friday specifically for the speaker, Android Wear 2.0, and this app!
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] JimSmith94:
I'd like to know what happened to the "Auto Read Aloud" too. I just bought a Huawei Watch and installed this app, hoping to get this functionality. It's mentioned in the OP and is also shown in a screenshot on Google Play.

I assume this functionality must have been removed for some reason, so is this still in the works for a future version?

*Vibrations Patterns alerts*

SWN 0.49

https://plus.google.com/+CyrilPreiss0/posts/hDHbV556dSy

SWN will let you associate vibration patterns with incoming notifications and events

You should not set too many vibration associations at first, otherwise you will get lost.

Try to add a couple of them and when you get accustomed to "listening" to them add some more

Patterns:

A vibration pattern is a sequence of vibrations and/or pauses.

Each vibration can be set to very short, short, long or very long.

Using pauses inside the patterns allows you extends the possibilities.

Each vibration length is associated with a color.

Pause is associated with gray.

You can customize each duration at will.

For clarity a pattern is represented as a sequence of arcs (see screenshot)

Settings:

Pre Vibration Delay:

If enabled the vibrations will only be played after this delay: can be useful to avoid mismatch with android wear own vibration

Vibration Pre Alert:

You can set a pre alert pattern that will be played first.

This will inform you a vibration pattern is about to be played so that you can concentrate on the pattern

Duration modifier:

To modify all durations together

Interval:

To set the interval between each element of the pattern
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Jaydawgx7:
For now I guess I did. I factory reset the watch and re-paired it. Like I said before, it worked fine for a bit, then quit again. But i went into the settings and turned on and off "does your watch have a speaker" and set up my preferred settings. Restart both devices, and it's been working fine for a few days now. Guessing it's just some kind of glitch. Also, I deleted the folder "sws" on the sdcard so it wouldn't remember my settings after reinstalling. Don't know what exactly helped, but hope this works for you.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] krucraft:
Looks cool! Really like the ability to edit vibration patterns. Will try it out tonight!
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] SkiRacer2144:
This app is exactly what I have been looking for, and it works great. However, if the watch itself is set to Sounds Off, the sounds still play through the watch. Seems like the app is completely ignoring the state of the watch. I use tasker to control my audio for when I am at work, and having no way to turn off sounds on the watch is anyoing unless I go into the Smart Wear App itself and turn them off while I am at work.

Am I missing something?
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Tech Critic:
Android Wear doesn't officially support notification sounds for anything but phone calls and alarms. The sounds made by SWN are done as media audio because there is no system notification API for the developer to use. The limitations are similar to those on your phone.

If you set your phone to vibrate or silent, and then you play a YouTube video, there will still be sound for the video. Vibrate or silent is only set for the notification volume, not the media volume, which is a separate setting. To prevent that YouTube video from making any sound, you'd have to set the media volume to zero.

So, on the watch, the sound setting in the slide down menu from the top of the screen is only for phone call and alarm sounds, not media audio, and as I described earlier, SWN sounds are media audio sounds. The rationale by Google is probably that media audio sounds are supposed to be used when an app is on-screen, and you probably still want those sounds even if the notification sounds are turned off.

I would guess that the developer cannot access the state of that sound setting through Google's APIs, so there's nothing he can do to make the setting work for his app. If this was a root app, he could work around that, but since it's not, he's constrained by the APIs Google had implemented and made available to third party apps.

And it wasn't clear if you know this, but you can mute SWN on the watch from the SWN app. It's unclear if you meant you were using the phone app for muting in your post, so I just wanted to make sure you know about the toggle on the watch itself.

---------- Post added at 10:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 AM ----------

BTW for me the sounds stopped working completely after I updated my Nexus 6P to Nougat. I tried resetting notification access and all the things that worked before when it would stop working, but no luck. It seems the last APK is not compatible with Nougat. It worked pretty well with Marshmallow though. Once in a while it would require you to reset it's notification access on the phone when it stopped playing sounds, but 90% of the time it worked well.

There's a new app on the play store called "Feel the Wear - Notifications." It appears to do the same thing and it has pretty good reviews. I'm going to give that a try with Nougat when I have a chance.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] chaos_jockey:
I would be grateful!

I'll check that out too.

Thanks!

[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] speedme:
Feel the Wear just plays a sound on the watch when a notification comes in, it doesn't read the actual notification out loud like SWN does.

I've searched for a simular problem like this, but didn't find any.

Too bad the dev stopped with this amazing app :(
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Tech Critic:
Ah I haven't been using that feature. Does it work well reading out Google Maps directions on the watch?

I don't have my watch out at the moment, but the accessibility service on the watch might read out notifications' text. It also narrates every UI screen which would be an annoyance though.

You can get phone apps that's will read out your notifications, so my approach in lieu of a substitute Wear app would be to look for a "Wear Speaker" type app that allows you to use wear as a BT speaker. Then use Tasker or another automation app to route audio from the Notification TTS app on the phone to the watch as BT audio.

If you're not using Nougat and looking for SWN, you can get the APK at the link I posted in my previous post.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] speedme:
No, SWN doesn't read out the directions of Google Maps navigation (as far as I know).

But honestly I haven't really tried it.

I couldn't even try it, as SWN doesn't work for me anymore.

Not even the APK that you posted earlier with a previous version.

I've only tested it with WhatsApp and as soon as a message comes in, the watch freezes.

I have to say that I'm using a Samsung Gear 2 with a Android Wear port, so maybe the problem is related to that AW port

(although it did work for some time...)

Anyway, I'm not giving up and when I have a good solution I will post it here.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] Tech Critic:
I think it likely has to do with your port. Running SWN on my Huawei Watch, I never had problems on the watch itself. When I did have problems, it was always the phone app failing to tell the watch app to make a sound when a new notification comes in. I could verify this because I never had a problem getting the watch to make test noises from the SWN app even when notifications weren't working.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] speedme:
I think you are right, unfortunately the developer of the port has stopped development due to personal reasons and he cracked his test watch.

So I can only fiddle around with what he has done so far (of which I'm very grateful, don't get me wrong here).
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] SirTurbo:
i am using smart wear notifications with a Huawei Watch on my Note3 with a custom rom, ported from Note5 (Samsung made no MM for the Note 3).

At the moment i get notifications on watch (again, struggling with som errors after flashing my phone, watch was paired first before the flash at 5.x). But i cant get it to work in the way i want:

When my watch is attached, i want notifications ONLY on the watch.

There is a switch on Android wear, promising this. And it works. But only up to the time i install notification app.

(removing incl deleting folder swn and trying again and again)

when i have installed this app i get the notification on the watch AND on the phone. ignoring the switch in android wear.

This seems not to be a direct notification fom swn - when in swn is only defined a vibration pattern, the sound is played on the phone too. So the swn-app seems to kill the switch in android wear which tells aw not to notify on phone when watch is connected.

My actual work-around is to put notification tone on phone to 0 when my watch is connected. But i would prefer to do this automatic.

Do you have this issue too?

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] primod808:
That's what I did. Put my phone to silent mode and have my gear s notify me of all incoming notifications. It's a solution for now until the developer is ready to come back?
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] SirTurbo:
You use the (unstable?) port? Interesting.

Meanwhile i have uninstalled smart notification wear. And am now using feel the wear. The big difference is that ftw cant read texts. But i never got this working at snw (didnt try hard). So i am not missing anything. And ftw seems up to now to do what it is expected to do, so i can concentrate myself to the other open work on watch (and the phone with custom rom(s) - working but probably will have to switch because of some issues):)

I've just installed the new released version with the validity date check removed on my Huawei watch running Android Wear 2.0, and the app configuration on the phone was able to play test sounds and vibrations on the smartwatch.

Tomorrow I'll check if real notifications make the smartwatch correctly play sounds and/or vibrations.
[Wear OS Software and Hacking General] MiniGizmo:
I installed the app, but have some problems....

- after a while (random) the sound just stops working. Only a reboot of my watch will fix it.

- when i get a call, but i dismiss the call, or the person calling stops calling (missed call) the notification sound keeps playing.

i sent the dev a mail via google play, but that email adress does not work. Also sent a message via the app itself, but no respond :(

My apologies. I found the app on the wear play store. It works however. I added a very long notification but on the watch it not that long. Seems like it stays between the limited notification time. I really need something that can wake me up like the alarm feature that keeps going.

Hi, I have been using my nexus 6p for quite a while flashing custom roms like crazy and I read in one of the threads that the battery is best with the stock, so I decided to try it, except I am not getting a real difference.

I have turned off scanning, location, wifi, the only thing I did not turn off was the data. I even tried to turn off the SYNC one time and didn't make much difference.

I suspect it is my network. I am getting LTE in my area, but I don't know how to read the signal in the stock battery graph. In total I can be getting about 4 SOT at the end of my day down to 10 percent and I see people are getting crazy 6 or 7. Images below

I was previously on OOS 2.2.1 and TWRP 3.0.0-2 (phone encrypted) and it was able to decrypt the /data partition just fine.

I decided to update to OOS 3.0 Beta with the modified H2-MM TWRP 3.0.0-1. I did this by dirty flashing. My phone boots up fine and I'm able to unlock the phone and everything seems to be running fine. The problem is now H2-MM TWRP 3.0.0-1 is unable to decrypt my /data partition. It keeps asking for my password, saying it's the wrong password. I know the password is correct because I'm able to get into my phone just fine. Would like to be able to access TWRP to flash su among other things.

Is anyone else having this issue? Anyone have OOS 3.0 Beta with H2-MM TWRP that CAN decrypt?

TWRP 3.0.0-2's decryption was working fine on OOS 2.2.1. I tried using TWRP 3.0.0-2 with OOS 3.0 Beta, but it won't work. Seems H2-MM TWRP 3.0.0-1 is required.
