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.
Cheers

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
thanks

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.

Bugger! Just bought Notifier Pro, and this doesn't do cards at all.

"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

Hi everyone.
To keep the Smartwatch Impressions Thread clean of bug-reports for my Apps i wanted to provide a own thread for them.
I just started developing for Android and the Sony Smartwatch because i missed so many functionality on my Smartwatch and the apps where missing in the market.
Some of them are done after people asked they want a app like that. For example the GPS Maps apps and the whatsapp notifier.
So if you miss some app for your smartwatch i might look at it to make it.
So here they are:
the Mail notifier (1.0.2.3):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.imapnotification
is using the javamail library for android. So there might be some bugs in it from me and from the library.
GPS Maps (1.0 Beta):
using OpenStreetMap: http://bytewiese.de/fileadmin/_media/dl/smartwatch/SmartwatchMap.apk
Does show a Map on your smartwatch with your position with the GPS-Data of your Phone
Google Maps App (currently v1.0.9.1) in the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.gpsmap
Calendar Events (1.0.0):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.calendarevents
shows the current/future event of your default calendar and you can swipe to the left/right to see the next or previous Event with time and description.
WhatsApp notifier (2.1 Beta):
http://bytewiese.de/fileadmin/_media/dl/smartwatch/SmartwatchWhatsappNotifier21.apk
shows a notification from the WhatsApp application when it is installed and running with notifications enabled. (still buggy as it looks.)
Calculator (1.0.0.4):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.quickcalc.
Calculator for the smartwatch.
Thanks for all your reportings and ideas and i hope we can continue in this thread.
Great
Kudos for the thread
will continue to support ur app and report my findings
Sorry to trouble u again but could you fixed the Call log Smart Extras™ since it doesnt support ICS thanks again
TIPS: Whatsapp notifier
- If stop giving notification please disable & enable it back on the phone, also opening the app on the phone trough the watch might prevent it to notify again.
Disable & enable it back again
Thanks for your hard work!
Regarding the mail app, the "action toast button" doesn't do anything.
Also if i put my phone in airplane mode at night i get a flood of "failed to connect to server" messages. Would be sweet just to have one error which clears after the connection returns if possible.
Whatsapp notifier, don't use the open on phone option for now as it will stop alerting on new messages.
Seems as though something else stops it notifying time to time but don't know what triggers it. Disabling and enabling app fixes it.
If received two messages and both have been unread, will show an alert saying "2 new messages"rather than the actual messages. Customnotifier does the same thing so there may not be a workaround.
I'm here to continue testing at your will. Your apps will be great to end up on the market.
Cheers

Hi beowulf,
The gps maps app does not work on my sgs2. It only shows a white screen. I only saw the map once for a short moment.
Hi. The loading sometimes takes a bit long.
But you can try the new version of it which will hopefully soon be available from the google market.
It is uploaded and published so look out for it. But i will hint to it as soon as i see it in the market. (I hope i am allowed to post links to my apps in the market)
It will have some new features you will hopefully like.
(You will need to remove the old version manually though)
//edit: ok. Finaly my first app in the android market.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.bytewiese.liveware.extension.gpsmap
I think i already found a bug though. It seems as soon as the app is closed and reopened on the watch that there is stil a old picture flickering. Will look at this. I would be happy if you continue to test and report bugs and ideas.
Just downloaded it from the Play Store!
Still not working though. Even the gps does not stop after closing the app.
Congratulations Beowulf6!
Thank you very much for your work.
hi Wop2k,
yes. was the same cause of my problem with the flashing screen.
i hope i finaly fixed it. I already updated the app in the market and i hope it works now for you now without a white screen.
if it is still not working i would like to know your android version.
Thanks.

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

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.

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.

No low power mode, but Google My Tracks combined with My Tracks for Smartwatch has an "always on" feature.

Similar but more basic. Set up a profile, it tracks via GPS and gives speed, distance, time, pace etc. like Runtastic, and the watch can be configured to stay on and show speed, time and distance, stop and start. On the phone plays back nicely on Google Earth.
Uploads automatically to Google Drive, but if you want to share on Facebook just gives a link rather than map and stats, and clicking the link only shows the map not the stats. All available on the phone though.
I got in touch with the developer of AeroTrackerPro for Pebble and he said he'd have a look, but no promises.

You can also get MyTracks on the watch with Watch My Tracks, again keeps the watch on but no low power. And can get better sharing via Strava and My Tracks Uploader.
Another option is to use remote widget with google my tracks, this way you get low power+always on

What I mean is to maintain the phone out of the deep sleep mode (set the config of the widget in device power on to CPU only mode). You will only notice that battery will be drained a little bit faster when monitoring the widget in real time at your wrist (what is normal)
What I use is endomondo with remote widget. I put the endomondo widget on remote widget and activate low battery mode. The bad thing is that you can see only one of the three info that real widget would provide on the phone due to the small screen of the watch. So I use it to see just the hr monitor.
Because distance and duration are told me earphones
Oh and it does work all the time, doesn't stop at all. You see life info

I believe I've looked almost everywhere, and after a couple hours looking I give up and decided to ask:
On my GEAR S I have a clock face with the basics: Time in big bold numbers a the top, followed below in smaller fonts: Notifications count, Calendar (or agenda, whatever) count and weather.
It also has a short description of what's coming up for me: Next meeting (for instance: (Staff meeting 0800-1200))
I'm a Safety Manager (OSHA, on military installations) and that's all I need to get through the day. I just bought this S2 and LOVE IT, but I can't seem to locate a clock face that tells me everything I need at a glance.
Ideas?
Thanks, guys and gals. NICE WORK on what you do have available, and it looks like most of them are a lot of HARD WORK too!

Right now this is impossible to accomplish with the gear watch designer. Maybe in a future update, it can be done. But as for now, the options just aren't available without making a whole stand alone program to run on the phone so you can display weather and all the various notifications.

Thank you. A veritable Gold Mine of watch faces. With that being said I searched through all 11 pages and did not find a single watch face that displays the weather or notifications or otherwise on the home face.
Please believe me when I say I am not trying to be argumentative. I am just dying (figuratively) to learn how to incorporate these complications directly on the watch face instead of tapping to open the Weather or notification app. The complications in GWD are really limited.
P.s. For anyone else interested be sure to add the S on the address

Ah haaa. So I was not mistaken. Mkowy led me to believe it was possible NOW. If it's on the interwebs, it must be true. Amirite?
