Hello world,
Do you email yourself notes, to-do items and links to web pages so you'll remember to deal with them later?
The thing is that each time you have to open your email app, compose a new message, fill in your email address and only then start the message.
So I created MeMail - set up your email address once and you're done.
Launch MeMail and type away.
Found an interesting link? In your browser go: Menu->Share->MeMail and it's there.
Give it a try - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=il.co.spaces.memail
Works with all the email clients, no permissions needed, free.
I would appreciate comments so I could improve further.
Thanks.
AW: [APP][Free] MeMail - quick email and share utility
I thought about writing an app like this. I like to email myself the location where I parked my car. The email is also sent to my girlfriend, so she'll know too. Does your app support multiple recipients and predefined email subject?
The next version (which I'm working on) will have a predefined subject.
I'll also add the option for including current location, why not?
Thanks for commenting.
Great idea. Email myself so many things xD

I think including location is not important, it will make the app too complex perhaps.
It's great that you will support predefined email subject. :good: I use it to apply Gmail filter and label.
Maybe it would be a good idea to have profiles in your app, e.g.
Profile 1
Name: Default
Recipients: me
Subject: MeMail Reminder
Profile 2
Name: Dude, where's my car?
Recipients: me, girlfriend
Subject: Car Location
Is it possible to store message as draft?

Sure, since all the email handling is done by your email client - If you don't send your message it will be saved as draft.

Using profiles is a good idea, but I was thinking more of creating different desktop shortcuts that launch different settings... Profiles could be used when using the sharing feature from within the browser.
Thanks

I'm not sure I understand what this is used for. Say, I have two different desktop shortcuts. What will they do? Could you give an example, please?
Working fine for me.

I would add shortcuts to drafts, so you could easily access stored notes.

I understand. Will you also implement profiles? So that when something is shared to MeMail, the user is prompted which profile should be used and MeMail then creates the email accordingly.
Btw, I tested multiple recipients. It works fine by simply separating the email addresses through a semicolon.
very cool idea, i email myself thing all the time.
Thanks for Sharing

Bad idea, of course profiles seems to be interesting, but don't ask user each time which one to use, add default profile and option in menu to choose default profile.

Good idea! Declaring a default account which will be used for sharing within the browser (I actually thought of using a pop-up).

Regarding the shortcuts "system":
Let's say you have two shortcuts - one is called "parking" and the other "notes". When you launch "parking" it has the subject set to - "my car is at:" and the body of the message has your location. It will be sent to you and your girlfriend.
"notes" will have "notes" as the subject and only your email as the recipient.
This way you get the email started immediately (no need to choose a profile).
Launching the main app will let you manage the profiles and shortcuts.

Can someone please share it,i had to restore rom and forgot to backup this great app(can't find it on play store)
Please !? :crying:
Just starting now with the next version.
Since installing windows 8 I can't get my computer to smile..
Hopefully until Thursday I'll have something out
Thanks for the heads up.
I'm pretty new to android phones and moved from a softbank iPhone 4 to a J Butterfly on AU. It's awesome, as is the Aurora 1.02 rom I'm running on it (thanks IS03!) but there's one thing that really bugs me.... The AU email app is so basic it's not true! To give you an idea....
Notifications don't include any information other than an email has arrived
Clicking on the notification re-opens the app, not the email in question
So you then have to click on your inbox and the mail to see what's going on
Replying takes way more steps than it should (tap reply, tap body, type, click done, click send)
I've tried using the gmail and outlook apps and they're not bad at all as email apps, but lacking for chatting. I've tried some SMS apps that feature iPhone esque themes and they look good, but unfortunately SMS is basically unused in Japan - people can't reply to me. So after all that background, finally my question:
Is there simple, streamlined email client that works great for chatting?
Thanks for any and all advice!

Didn't seem like there's anything like that on au's end, I'd have found it by now as I share your frustrations.
Many people I know are using Line, though. I haven't really used the standard email app in quite a while.

Hi!
In the last month we developed an app to send all the notifications that your phone receives to the smartwatch2.
It uses NotificationListener Service instead of Accesibility, so it only works on Android 4.3
Personally, Accesibility permissions are very compromising for an app that only send notifications to the watch, and that's why we started developing an app using the new NotificationListener Service.
The app will grab all the text of the notification (not only the tickerText) and will send it to your phone. You can also mute some applications (i.e. PowerToggles post notifications every few seconds) and set a period of time when no notifications will be sent to your phone (ie. During the night)
The link to the app is:
Mod edit: Removed paid app link
We also have a Free version of the app. In this version you won't get all the text in the notification in your phone, you'll only get tickerText and you cannot set periods of "Do not disturb"
Hope you find it useful.
Hi!
I tried many different apps that bring notifications to the sony smartwatch. I'm currently using a HTC ONE with Sense 5.5/Kitkat 4.4.2 and most of the notification-apps have at least one of the following problems:
-) no smilies in whatsapp notifications
-) the sense mail app groups notifications as soon as there is more than one at a time, so if I get one email and 5min later another one, the notification on the phone and on the watch as well just shows me something like:
sender1
subject1
sender2
subject2
but I can not access the content of the emails... the content is only available as long as there just one new email... I don't know if the notification app can do anything about that, but it's something that bothers me
-) some apps don't allow me to exclude certain services like the htc backup service from notifying me on the watch because there is no dedicated app for that
-) some apps don't allow me to scroll through longer notifications
what about your app?
greetings

AFAIK, SW2 doesn't have Emoji in its charset, so any notification app won't show that emoji characters. We are working in a workaround transforming some emoji in an alternative which can be shown by the watch

Our app will send to the watch all the text contained in the notifications, instead of sending only the abbreviated text which is what some other apps do.
This was one of the motivation behind our app. We wanted to read the whole email in our watch so we developed SW2 Notifier
I cannot tell you about HTC sense mail app, but I can read full mail text in Gmail, Google's mail app and CloudMagic (which are the clients I use). I think that the situation will be the same in HTC sense clients, but I cannot tell you 100% how that will work.

You can select which application notifies you in the watch and which not. You can leave htc backup service out, and it won't send any notification to your watch. So that's a yes, you can filter out any app you want.

If I understood you well, yes you can scroll it long way down in the text of the notification. I.e, If you receive, let's say 10, messages in Hangouts, you can read them all.

I just tried out your app and here's my feedback:
-) it would be great to have an option to define if the notifier should by default enable notifications for a new app-notification or not (as it is now you have to disable each app you don't want to get notifications from and you have to wait until you receive a notification from that app, so for a while you will have to open the settings over and over again to remove an app from the whitelist)
-) unfortunately I have the same problem as with all the other notification apps when I receive two or more notifications about new emails, attached you see two screenshots that show what I mean... as you can see the watch just shows me that I got two emails from "Kamil" and both have the subject "Test2" (if you scroll down on the watch you see just another line telling me that Kamil sent an email with the subject "Test2"), but I can not see the content of the emails (the content is only visible when I have just one email-notification)... this happens with the HTC-mail-client and with the default android-client as well... maybe the notifications-grouping is a sense feature?

We take note about that, we'll add that option to settings, in order to deactivate notifications by default.
About the other comment, did you try Free or Paid version?, In Free version we don't send all text of the notification to the watch only what Android calls "ticker text" which is the text you can read in the notification bar when you receive a notification.
In the PRO version, we send all the text which is contained in the notification (if you swipe down in the notification it will expand and will show extra text, and all that text is what we send to the watch).
I use Google's default mail client (have a nexus) and even though in the notification bar i cannot read whole text, in the watch I can read all the email.
I tried the paid version, it looks like as soon as there is more than one email notification the notification doesn't contain the email text anymore but just the sender and subject of each email

Hi,
I bought the PRO app yesterday, and from a quick test I am very satisfied with it. My biggest problem with others was that they couldn't show extended notifications of Hangouts, and this one does it nicely.
So, great job!

Yup, I can avoid installing 2 or 3 apps by using this one. I am liking it!

Congrats on the development and thanks for contributing to the SW2 community.
I am experimenting with the Pro version. Interesting the way you need to turn off notifications only after your phone/watch have a notification from that app or service (as opposed to WatchIt where you can do so when you first install WatchIt). I am running 4.3 on my phone, so I reckon I am the right target market.
Does seem to show more content on some notifications, but like others have also reported, if your phone gets a number of emails and notifications at the same time, SW2 Notifier only lists them out and provides the same amount of content in the list as WatchIt. Same is true with Google+.
Its a small $ investment and hopefully encourages people to develop for the platform, and its a nice looking extension. Don't know if it is enough of a difference to get someone who already has WatchIt to switch to SW2 Notifier. Since WatchIt is free I believe, and also works well with 4.3 phones (benefiting from same notification access), I think the SW2 Developers need to do something more to replace WatchIt.
btw, I am still trying to find the perfect notification extension. I use a few (WatchIt, Watchify, SW2 Notifier) to receive email, Gmail, and Google+, and the stock extensions to get Twitter, Facebook, Messaging, Slideshow, RSS, Missed Call, Music Player, Calendar Reminder. Seems the stock extensions that are dedicated to a type of notification still seem to work a bit better than the WatchIts and other broder notification extensions. Fortunately the SW2does not limit the number of extensions (apps) like Pebble does.
A suggestion would be good to select what notifications you want upfront as opposed to case by case as they come in.
Trying the free version. It's splendid so far. One "issue" I have is that I use Hangout and when a person sends me one message, its fine but if they send another afterwards and I didn't check the first, it comes up as 2 messages.
It would be nice if either my phone or watch could read the messages seperately but it doesn't which is a bummer. Other than that, its great!
ok, I've bought pro version, but it is as good as annoying. After 15 minutes of working I can have over 30 messages on my watch. Offcourse I've switched off non neccesary notifications, but for example for deezer I've got triple multipled notifications. Also really annoying are 'ghost notifications'. On my phone i;ve got 0 notifications, but this app shows me some empty notifications without any message. How can I rid of that?
Thanks all for using the app. It started as a personal need for us but it turns out as a useful app for everyone. We are carefuly reading the comments in order to improve the app in future versions.
There are some interesting things we'd like to comment.

In Free version, the text sent to the watch is shorter than the paid version, sorry. In the paid version you should read the whole hangouts notification including messages.

Thanks for the feedback, we've been noticing something similar. Android notification system is a little bit messy. Sometimes, the notification service notifies the app saying, "hey there is a new notification posted", but it is not. Filtering these notifications out without affecting some others is not so easy as it should be. We are working on that in order to provide a better experience.
Hi there, I bought youre PRO version, nice app, IMO only missing one feature, a feature that lets you set a delay between notifications of the same app, eg when a app fires multiple alerts, it would be nice to get only one buzz on your wrist
I agree to some previous post, have an option to have the new notification services disabled by default
So I've been using this app now for about five days. I've pretty much got most of the notification apps for the SW2 all except Watchit were unreliable. I'm glad to report that this app hasn't missed a beat. I've replaced Watchit with this one. I'm really looking forward to the updates! Finally a decent competitor to Watchit!
Hi, i send an email for you, i perchasede your great app, but this app has a problem and not good for persian and arabic language users, because this app cant show notification with persian/arabic language and show persian text like???? , another app like augmented smart watch pro show correctly persian text on smart watch 2, please add this feature in next version

Does this app currently support or plan to support in the future, features similar to those shown on Android Wear smartwatches. For example being able to select archive on gmail notifications.
Hi everyone! I'm working a new Android messaging app, and to test my idea, I have a few questions for which I'd love to hear what you have to say.
Do you feel that you spend too much time on your messaging apps?
Are many of your conversations productive?
Would you like it if conversations were short and to the point? If so, with what kind of people would you want this (ie your friends, family, colleagues, etc...)?
Do you love the mute notifications feature on apps like Whatsapp?
I appreciate your time - feel free to PM me or reply on this thread. Thanks!
I would love you see a messaging and email app all in one. Like the same platform as the new Inbox. Its super smooth and convenient. If you could text too it would be perfect to me
