[Q] Notifications have changed on Nougat - Samsung Gear S3

Hello,
i've a s7 edge + gear s3 frontier, i've been using the s3 frontier since Marshmallow but last week, when i've updated my phone to Nougat the notifications have changed.
What happens now is that i can see only the last message of an app, let's say that for instance i've a conversation composed by more than one message as follow:
"hi"
"hello"
"goodbye"
Before nougat if i clicked on the notification i was able to see the entire conversation on my gear s3 however now i can see only the last message that i've received (in the example above i see only "goodbye").
Are you experiencing the same behavior?
Thank you!

Yes it is a behavior change on Nougat and soon more apps will move to this direction when Nougat becomes popular.
However, the behavior depends on the apps you use. Some display the first e.g: whatsapp. Some display the last e.g: Telegram. Which app are you using?

In telegram and whatsapp for example i can see only one message, in MM i was able to see one message but if i clicked on the notification i was able to see the entire conversation, will there be an update to solve this?
Thank you

I'm afraid there won't be official updates to solve this issue as the notifications work just fine on the phone and android wear. You can, however, use a third-party app in the store to solve this issue. For Whatsapp, you can use Whats History. For Telegram, you can try Tlgram History. I developed both apps. You can check out this video to see the app in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRV0VEIiatw

That's really a bad news ok i'll check out your app thank you!

Well I just turned on notification for Whatsapp and when someone send me whatsup message I can replay from notification or click view all message from sender , but on few contact view all message have problem because don't show last 10-20 or xx message.
I have the same problem and it's very annoying. If anyone has a solution let us know!
Whatapp Bugs
I have the same problem. I think it's a bug. Also when I get a picture in WhatsApp, sometimes I can see the picture and most times cant. Don't understand why.
I've just noticed that if I restart the watch i can see the same notification (that didn't work before) correctly
Same issues here, both the old message list as well as the irregular image showing...
Any news?
I also am having the exact issue and it's very annoying
Hello all,
I am having very strange problem with whatsapp notifications. Although i receive notification on my Gear S2 but the problem is its always the latest notification from the contact. For eg: if a contact sends me hi, how are you, see you at 4 as 3 different messages i only receive "see you at 4" notification on gear s2 which is kind of annoying . Does anyone else have noticed this problem. Is there any way we can see all messages from that contact on gear s2 without going to phone?
Yes same here. Only the latest message. This 400 $ piece of **** is full of bugs. Damn.

Notification problem

I have a problem since lat week.
When i get whatsapp notification, in the past i could see the last notification. Today i can see only the 1st botification amd not the last. When i get 2 notifications from specific person, i can see the 1st through the botification app.
Maybe its aproblem after i installed Watchmaker.
Any idea?

Not a problem caused by Watchmaker but Whatsapp update. Since 2.17.65, Whatsapp notification behaves like that. You can try Whats History, my app, to fix this problem

unread messages will not shown on tizen 4

After updating to Tizen 4, unread messages are not stored on S3. I get a message and can view it ad hoc on the watch. So far so good. But if I can't read the message right now, it won't be saved. On Tizen 3 I could swipe to the right and there were all accumulated messages, mails etc.. With Tizen 4 there is - despite received messages - "no notifications...choose apps you want to notify".
The fact that unread messages are no longer stored is a deal breaker for me. It's a bug or feature?
I noticed this before Tizen 4.
In the messages and email apps you can see all your phone's messages and emails, however, not just notifications. I guess none from other apps, though.
For sure. If you use the standard apps the message is saved. But the yellow point which shows you missed notifications is not there anymore and the leftside notifications menu is still empty. So i've got no chance to read missed insta, fb, wa, twitter notifications anymore. That ist anoying. Can i switch back to tizen 3? Cause with this issue the watch is useless for me.
I have the same problem, is this a tizen 4 issue or a muss configuration on the user?
For me the notifications just popping up on the watch for 1sec and the watch vibrates, than it's gone and I don't have this orange dot anymore from tizen 3.
Same problem ...

Did not find a solution.... I have reseted the watch x times, deleted data from the phone app, synct my settings with one of my colleagues, but it's not working for me. My colleague has tizen 4 as well, but it's working for him.
I found a very simple solution, and surprisingly it worked!
You just have to reboot the watch (lower button pressed until you see the message "reboot").
I just don't understand why a simple reboot does the work and a full reset of both the watch and the phone app doesn't .....
Please let me know if it also works for you!

Question Notification problems

Hello All
Ive got the GW4 46mm BT classic paired with a Note20U both up to date , woke up this morning after watch been fine for a week and put my watch on but no notifications coming thru to the watch did quick restart on both no go.
Reset the watch and only some notifications come thru no email or texts tho whatsapp is ok , checked settings nothing has changed.
Uninstalled galaxy gear app and reset watch still the same missing certain notifications even tho they are ticked .
Watch is set to show even if phone is open.
Any ideas ?
You may need to turn on notifications for the specific apps in the wearable app. I had to do this as I was getting no notifications for any apps.
Thanks for the reply
I've checked all the settings and all ticked . Emaids via the Samsung app now work but texts messages have now stopped showing on the watch even tho notification is ticked !!!
Same here, specially with Aqua Mail app, WhatsApp...etc.
As I never had this problem with the old generation watch I got before (Gear S3 running Tizen), I think we have just to wait for the 1st product OS update.
Youth problems are common on first releases. I hope first OTA will fix this annoying problem.

Same here. Text messages and phone calls appear fine. WhatsApp is a hit and miss, sometimes pops up, sometimes just silently shows the notification dot.
In general, regardless of this bug, notification management on this watch is a mess, very poor user experience.
Some things I noticed:
1. If you're driving with Android Auto, it's impossible to respond or take action on a notification on your watch. Anything you click on (such as 'Delete' on an email notification or 'Mark as Read' on a text message) seemingly registers on the watch but the notification persists and no action is taken.
2. The notification indicator is useless if you have the watch set to wake up the screen when you get a notification. Basically it wakes up the screen to display the notification and from that point on it's considered 'read' so the indicator won't appear, even if you didn't actually look at it. They should've had an option to show the indicator while you have uncleared notifications.
3. Multiple notifications from the same app require you to click on a tiny number icon at the bottom of the notification. Inconvenient. (Think when you have multiple WhatsApp messages from different contacts).
4. Looking at a notification screen gives you no indication of whether or not you have other notifications, you have to try to swipe left to check.
5. To clear a notification while it's open -- you either have to click 'back' to the main notification screen and then swipe up or scroll all the way down to find the 'clear' button -- which sometimes isn't there and you have to click on 'More...' first. How about just allowing me to swipe to dismiss it after reading it?!
They'e put a lot of emphasis on health, but given very little thought about the basics.
I can only confirm and complain that I get 0 notifications from Whatsapp even though I've checked all the notifiation settings multiple times. Also even though I've got the wear os version of telegram installed, the telegram notifications I get are standard notifications that can't show e.g. pictures or voice messages.
It was working fine when I got it on tuesday. It even worked fine after the "day 1 OTA". And now I get nothing at all. Tried everything from granting more permissions to the Watch4 Plugin or disabling battery optimization and stuff. Restarted both devices a lot. It just stopped working. I am glad I am not the only one...

Weird... well I guess I have to wait. lol
Update from me as well. I turned off both phone and watch and turned them back on together after a few minutes. I don't know why it works but it does.
Edit: Nvm it worked for like one notification and then it stopped working again...
Restarting both devices helped me.
I played around with a bit more. Restarting both devices helps...for a while. As soon as the watch reconnects to the phone (i.e. you move too far from your phone) it stops working. Very annoying still.

Sounds way better than my status. Do you have a Samsung phone? I am using a Black Shark phone. I still have to investigate this further...
Samsung Note20 Ultra

I have the impression that all the notifications work fine now: Gmail, WhatsApp, Nuki, telegram, Smartthings, messages, Gtask.
Hope it will stay ok.
Mean reason for me is having phone on silence but I can see notifications on watch.
Btw the watch 4 classic is a real beast.
What version of plugin do you have?
I still have no gmail vibrate.

Question Functionality Fail?

I'm having issues with notifications. Just wanted to see if I missed a setting or it's just lame by design, or even just need a re-pair/reset. but, when receiving multiple notifications from the same app, is there any way to dismiss the latest and keep the others? This was the way all previous versions of wear worked, all notifications stacked and you could dismiss each one and all others for that app would remain
Now if I get more than one email if I dismiss what is displaying on the watch all notifications for gmail app are cleared including on the phone. If I open and delete the email it shows me the next one.
God I wish Google would have taken over the software dev on this. I's great hardware, but gimped by it's own ambition.
