Hi All,
I have had a Smartwatch2 for a week now, and noticed that over the last few days I no longer get any twitter @ replies or mentions pushed to the watch (using the Sony Smart Accessory). Also when managing the twitter preferences I experience a lot of FC's (could be due to the number of followers etc?).
My question is , how is everyone else handing notifications , using the individual plugins , or a third party app (i tried Watchit , but nothing ever got pushed).
Cheers
Gavin

I've been using watchit! both with the smartwatch 1 and 2... works great once you tweak it. remember you have to enable it in accessibility like the instructions indicate, otherwise it will not work.

Cheers - do you use any of the sony watchapps , or just let watchit control all the notifications you want?
It will be great if the notification counter would be visible on the digital clock in standby.
So i don't press button to control notifications.
This is a very good suggestion, a functionality that I don't think should be too hard for Sony to provide.
Re: Sw2 Notification
I also using this smartwatch, i also want this fuctionality on my smartch watch... Thanks for suggesstions
Watchit also works perfectly on my SW2
Watchit FTW. Don't waist your money on the other paid apps(unless you want to), Watchit is awesome.

+1 to WatchNotifier.
Its a paid App, but i like it much more.
I tried watchit, but i must disable the Message Information for every App manuelly. I will only get notifications from whattsapp. So i must disable 200 Apps!
Then i tried WatchNotifier and there i have an option to disable all Apps at once! Great, fast, stable and no problems. And 1,49 Euro are not much money.

Ant suggestions for an app for emails? There is already a task extension for gmail. But I need one for regular work emails. I am not on an Xperia. The standard email task extension won't work on a non xperia device.

The free k9mail extension works very well on the SW2, but of course one must also use k9mail on the smartphone as email client.

Yeah! Watchit is really good and free! I turned off all apps notifications by default and only had to select one by one those I wanted to be notified. And it's awesome. The only thing I miss is to be able to get rid of the default notification app of the sw2 ?

Hi guys,
I would like to know if Sony Smartwatch 2 is totally compatible with the Nexus 5 before buy it! I don't know if someone here are in the same situation.
Searching in the forum, I've seen an opinion with succesfull results but I prefer to read more than one . Also I read a Bluetooth problem (it drops and reconnects every few minutes).
Thanks a lot.

Thanks for your feedback. What about notifications (SMS, Calls, Email/Gmail, Whatsapp, LINE, Twitter, Facebook, etc...)? Hope it works great too
I checked all kind of notification (Facebook, mail, twitter, calls...) before installing augmented SmartWatch pro and all worked correctly. But I only use augmented for all notifications now.

Working ok for me except for the Music player... (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516313 )
Tryed with augmented watch, can't skip songs on Google Music too with Augmented Watch...
Seems to be working okay. The Sony authored Messaging Smart Extension still shows SMS even though they are now displayed inside Hangouts.
I'm using WatchIt! now to capture all other notifications and pushing them to the device. Seems to work great so far.

Having trouble getting my SW2 to connect to my N5. Worked/works fine with my N4. Tried the NFC method first, and I get a toast saying 'Smartwact 2 Connected' but then nothing happens. Tried connecting manually and it doesn't show up at a bluetooth device (other devices do show up).

Sorry for late reply. I think on the Nexus 5, I doesn't show up as connected, as it's using Bluetooth Low Power mode. Fitbit devices do the same. Look on your watch and it should have changed the bluetooth logo to bright white, from grey.
For those looking for decent music control on KitKat, try this redditors extension, works GREAT for me. But, you can also use remote widget (read more here) and use the Play Store widget or PowerAmp widget or whatever you want.
If you want a music app for SW2 and you have a KitKat, then try SmartMote

Hi all
After trying the lg G WATCH for a few days before returning it, I really miss the googlenow notifications on the SW2.
I have tried Augmented app, but aesthetically it is horrible, so has anybody found a notification app that includes Google Now.

Unless I'm configuring it incorrectly, Watchit and watchify only say there's one alert rather than presenting the actual alert.
I will look at Notify

Yes, I found this, but like the others, didn't appear to handle Google Now cards. I've tried about 6, but not very scientifically, so perhaps I've rushed the tests a little, I certainly can't recall which did what.
Will give it another try this evening thanks
Lightflow can do this. You can set which cards do and do not get sent to the watch. It comes across as text, not an interactive card (but I don't think any app does the interactive card thing) . Plus lightflow is awesome for your phone notifications.
Light Flow!
If you purchase the full version of light flow you can push alot of notifications to your watch, including google now.

"Wearable Widgets" shows any widget on the watch. But no interaction with the widget.

Well I tried the full version, and it's certainly a well presented app, but couldn't get cards to work, so got it refunded.

Doesn't it push the notifications? Or are you looking for something more then just getting the notification, like actual swipe away cards?

Hi, though cards would be nice, I would be happy with a text style alert/headline for each google now card. For me the whole purpose of the smart watch is to leave the phone in my pocket as much as possible. I like the cards but many are irrelevant or not urgent (like many texts and most FB posts) so if I can casually glance at my watch to confirm this, then it's work is done.
and no, it didn't appear to push the alerts individually.

It does. I do it. You need to go into settings and switch on what you want to come across. It works well - it even sends me traffic alerts while driving.

Then I will buy and try again, I was most impressed with it's configuration anyway. Will let you know how it goes, thanks
Apps like e.g. WatchIt have two different methods of getting the notifications from the phone to the watch: Notification access (under Security settings) and Accessibility. Only the latter one can get Toasts and thus Google Now cards. At least it was like this for me.
OK, I give up, I will live without GNow notifications till the Moto is on my wrist.
THanks for the suggestions
I use Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910C that is rooted and running official marshmallow. All was going well for 6-7 months. But suddenly I am not getting push notification from the facebook app for the last month. The only time I am getting push notification from the facebook app when I try to login from another browser and a code is needed from code generator. Push notification from other apps, email, instagram etc are working. I have tried clearing data of the app, turning off platform, uninstalling greenify. Butnothing worked. What to do now? Please help.
Hi there so generally the facebook app is unliked around here because it takes up a huge amount of RAM. Many people here prefer to use an alternate client for facebook I've heard of some I think you should try some out if you feel you have done everything to activate push notifications. Here is a rddit link in case you are wondering about some opinions https://www.reddit.com/r/androidapps/comments/3k2ol0/facebook_app_alternative/

There actually might be a setting that might have to do with this however we could have a better idea if you tried using the Facebook app on another device. Have you tried doing that?

No, I don't have another android device. When I use swipe pro, push notification works in that app. and in facebook app itself, for code generator notification and someone is live notification, push notification works immediately. Someone told me that this is facebook's problem. He faced the same problem. After his reporting for 2 times to facebook, they resolved it some days later.
Then you should probably contact Facebook if its a problem on their end that way you can now for sure if you can fix it.

I never had the beta. I was too late to register.
However, there are a lot of UI changes when compared with the leaked 1.5 version. ?
And the Bluetooth app installations in the watch are possessed much faster, although they are still slow as hell.
All I see is the Gear Fit app anything on the S2?

The same thing happens with other users or only with my iPhone SE?

but as I said, unfortunateley, same that nothing is changed. only read whatsapp/sms, whatsapp no pictures, no contacts, no calls, no maps....
just downloaded the official app : works like a charm ! I got an iPhone SE (iOs 10) and a Gear S2. Here are the step needed :
- remove the leaked app from both your phone and your itunes library
- make forget the watch in the bluetooth settings of the iPhone
- reset the watch to factory settings
After the reboot of the watch, you just need to start the app and link them again. If this doesn't work, check the firmware of the watch, must be the last one.

I only reseted the watch. Nothing else.
Basically I installed the official version, and reseted the watch. Only then I uninstalled the leaked version. But there was a few minutes with both the official and the leaked versions installed and everything was working as it is now.
Ah, and I didn't make the phone forget the watch in the Bluetooth settings. Just left it there.
