Notify BETA - Notifications re-invented

**UPDATE**
Tap to open has been added
Auto start on boot has been added
Allot more apps have been perfected
Change the Notification duration
New UI
**UPDATE**
Hey all I just wanted to introduce my newly developed app Notify and yes it is in BETA.
This work is all done thanks to an open source project on GitHub which can be found here Github). As for the app it is Free and always will be but please do keep in mind there were allot of hours put into this project so I included a donate button within the app if you would like, also there are ads to help me out a little bit but don't worry as they are non-intrusive . Please read the instructions below on how to use the app, along with some screenshots of the new notification system this app implements.
Download Link
Google Play
Instructions
If you are on Android lollipop (5.0-5.1) you must install this app (App 5.0-5.1), run it, and start the service in order to get rid of the stock notifications that come up.
If you are on Android Marshmallow 6.0 you must do the following for each app that you want to disable the stock notifications for....Settings -> Sound & Notification -> App notifications -> The app you want to disable stock notifications for -> Disable allow peaking. This is hopefully a temporary solution, and if anyone has any idea on how to disable these peaking notifications for apps on Marshmallow please feel free to contact me!

Android Wear v1.5 Adds Proper Support For Marshmallow's Doze Mode

With Android 6.0 a new power saver mode (Doze) was included. While people are getting better battery stats, Doze had a bad habit of knocking out apps with genuinely important roles to play. Android Wear too. Thethe new update Android Wear 1.5 adds awareness of Doze Mode and prompts users to add it to the protected list.
When you start the new App the first time,it will have a bright blue notice on the screen to let you know that your watch may not remain connected unless the Wear app is allowed to run in the background. If you press on the continue button, Android Wear will be added to the list of not optimized apps. Most of the actions with the watch are handled by the Google Play Services, but services like Voice Search are handled by the Android Wear App. Google Play Services are automatticly protected from the optimized Apps.
And with the 1.5 Update Google added support for Casio's upcoming Smart Outdoor Watch WSD-F10.
The first screen of the Android Wear App is now scrollable.

How To Guide Officially install Google Pay through Play Store

This method does not require ADB sideload. All done through Google Play store.
1) Only works in countries where Google Pay is officially supported. Your Google Play account must be in the region to see the app. Check country list here: https://support.google.com/pay/answer/9023773#pay-with-wear
2) Install "Legacy" Google Pay apps onto phone and Watch4 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel
NOTE: This is not the same as new UI redesigned app
3) Open the "Legacy" Google Pay app on phone, should auto login and display same cards that exists in the new Google Pay app.
4) Open Watch4, and install if not already there. Go to Play Store -> Apps on your phone -> Install "Legacy" Google Pay.
5) Open Google Pay app on Watch4, it'll prompt to add card from Phone screen. If not showing, just keep phone app open, and hit "Try Again" on the Watch4.

Must setup PIN or Pattern in order to use Google Pay on Watch4 and make purchases using the loaded card(s).
To verify it's set as default, on Watch4. Go to Settings -> Connections -> NFC -> On -> Payment -> Google Pay

It is not necessary to install Google Pay on the phone. On the Watch is enough.

Can't enable Developer Mode on new Chromecast with Google TV

Just got my second CC w/Google TV, and I'm stunned to find that for some reason, I can't enable Developer Mode. Going to System > About and hitting Android TV OS Build seven or even seven hundred times does nothing. Which means I can't enable the installation of third party apps and a bunch of other things.
Interestingly, the Android TV OS Build on the newer CC w/Google TV is different/apparently newer than the one on my first CC w/Google TV. See pics below—the launch/first one has QTS1.210311.008.7350836, while the new one has QTS1.210311.017.A2.7686849. (What's that "A2" all about?) In any event, the first one says the system is up to date.

I was able to solve this by just updating to the latest version using the builtin updater in settings. The out of the box firmware (which I didn't document sorry but was a 2021 fw) was giving me this same bug.

Never mind.
In case any of you "stumble" in here from Google, then just know that you do not have to UPDATE any firmware. I am on the April, 2021 Security Level and I just bought that new 4K Chromecast with Google TV.
Go to the SEARCH option in the TOP MENU on the HOME screen and do a Voice Search for TOOLS and then install "Developer Tools". It will basically ENABLE the Developer Mode and then you can UNINSTALL the App.
Easy and now I have Developer Mode, so I can install nefarious Apps to my Chromecast, muhahaha...
Thanks for "forcing" me to search and documenting a better answer with RESULTS !!!
