Removing notifications after seeing them on watch

Hey all!
I use watchit to display my notifications from my phone to my smartwatch..
i just wanted to ask, is there a way to make it act this way.
This way being:
. For example, when someone sends me a whatsapp message, usually, it displays a whatsapp icon at the top of my phone. With my phone, it still does that as well as watchit sending a notification to my phone.
Is there a way, so when i SEE the notification on my SMARTWATCh, it will clear the notification on my PHONE so they don't appear at the top. Kinda like, mark as read via smartwatch!
I hope i made sense
Thanks in advance

If only !!
I would like this too ... but even worse is the reverse. if you have a few messages on your phone the notifications build up on your watch and there is no easy way to dismiss all notifications .. you have to manually read (or swipe as fast as you can) every message in the list ... very pre-historic and should be addressed !!

Or go into the particular extension in smartwatch app, and clear all....

Awww lol
I was hoping for an app or something.
Guess we gotta wait till Sony patches it or something!

No one shows how it works.

I searched youtube high and low. But no one actually really shows how the edge works for things like notifications. The main things I want to know is how it looks or acts or works when someone sends a text message. Or in my case more importantly a KIK message. My partner and I use KIK to communicate all the time instead of text messaging. Does it pop up on the edge? Or does it only show at the normal top of the phone needing the whole screen turned on? If it shows up on the edge does it just say new kik message? Or does it show the message from the person?

I have a note edge G version.
To answer your questions YES , you get the message itself on the edge screen because of which i actually disabled the Heads Up display. If i get a message in Whatsapp and say i am in the homescreen, the senders name and the message first few lines only, is shown. This works on most apps but I have noticed that only the first few lines are shown and then a series of periods..
To get message on the edge screen while the phone is locked, you can search RuggedAutoHunter here in the forum. He has developed an app that can show you messages even if the phone is not unlocked. Pretty neat.
Hope it helps.

Thanks, And I clicked the thanks button lol. I'll search that. Is there a way to turn off showing the first few lines of the message? Some times I have to set my phone down in public at a job site and wouldn't want someone walking by while my partner sends me a sensitive message and seeing what she says. I mean I'd still like to see new kik message received or new text message received etc on the edge while the screen is off. But don't want private information to be seen by anyone and everyone lol. Thanks again

That's a question you have to ask RuggedAutoHunter because that would only apply when you have the screen off/phone locked.

Dismissing Text Messages - S3 vs S2

I hope I can explain this well enough for someone to understand, so here it goes.
When using the S2, I could swipe up to dismiss a text message and then I would look on my V20 and the message would show as being read.
Now.....when using the S3 the message on the phone still shows as unread. I can even reply to a text from the watch, but the phone still shows unread.
Basically I want both the watch and the phone to mirror one another.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have notice the same thing I hope someone can explain why this is happening and come up with a solution

I'm not using the stock messenger, I'm using Textra. But I'm guessing they work the same.
I believe it's the difference between dismissing the notification (and/or replying from within the notification), and going in and reading and/or replying down in the actual message. Almost like layers. But it confused me at first, because the notification can "preview" the message with... the message! (Toggle "Always show details" in the notification settings)
Try tapping "Read more" before replying. Weird thing is, seems like you still have to go back and swipe away the notification after replying...

Block certain chats without leaving them

Bit of an odd request I'm sure, but I need to block any updates or notifications of a certain chat without leaving it altogether. This includes the number that appears on the whatsapp icon as well as the chat in my chat logs.
My situation is this: my boss is forcing me to be a part of a regional "shoutout" group where we post our sales. This is on my personal phone using my own phone number. Work will not supply me with one. The group gets 10+ messages an hour, so when I look at my phone I'm always checking it in case it's a friend messaging me. If I leave the group, my boss will give me hassle & often if I leave, I get re-added by our regional manager without being asked.
I understand my problem is work are being *insert expletive here*, but hiding the chat solves my problem as I will never actually need to read or post to it. Archiving only hides old messages & new ones still make it show up.
Anyone got an app mod or even an xposed module that will help? My phone's a stock S7 Edge but I'd even root it just to get around my problem...
Thanks in advance

Just hold down the chat you don't want to see, then click on the speaker icon at top of screen, click on mute for 1 year (that's the maximum mute time), make sure you uncheck the show notifications box. That should sort it for you.

Text message conversations not staying in order

When I view my list of text messages conversations they're not showing in the correct order. And the text that appears in the preview box before you open the conversation isn't showing the most recent text. When I click on individual conversations all of the messages are there and correct.. When I get a new message it will be at the top, then I respond and back out, and it'll get pushed back to March or sometimes just a few days! So for some reason just when I view all my conversations it's not remembering I've been talking to people, just annoying to have to scroll back a month to text someone you talk to daily.. Is this happening to anyone else?

Time and date of the phone correct?

Yes, and I haven't changed the time and date for anything.

I'm getting similar thing on my Huawei P10.
When I look at my list of sms messages the last message sent is not at the top of the list. I have to scroll down through a few days of threads and then the 'latest' thread appears.
So what happens is I either send or receive a text. It shows at top of list. If I come out of messages and go to another app and then go back into messages that text that was just sent is no longer at the top, it is moved down about 20 thread down.
It's really annoying. Somebody texts me, the message is at top. I answer it then switch to other app. The other person sends me another text and when I go back into messenger it's not at top anymore it away down the list and its takes a lot of scrolling to get to it.
The individual texts within any thread are in the right order withing the thread. It's the thread that moves down below others of older date.
And the thread doesn't move to the bottom of the list just down about 20. The threads above it are in correct order except they should be below the latest ones, and the threads below the latest ones which are pushed down are also in order.
So everything really old is in order.
Very recent threads are pushed down about 20 places.
The 20 places are in correct order, except they are above the most recent.
It's quite hard to explain but it's very weird and very annoying.
If I send a text and get no response the text stays at the top until another unconnected text is sent or is received. It's only when a thread is created that the threads goes out of kilter
Have checked all dates/times/zones are auto to network

Can you force setting the date and time manually on the phone? Does this happen with other SMS apps?
