An improved notifications app for the PebbleOS watches
Note: the old Pebble app is not supported. You have to use either the microPebble or the new Pebble/Core app.
Instead of just showing received notification pager-style, NC will show all the notifications from your phone (within reason).
Configure every aspect of the notification. Have different settings depending on which app sent the notification or depending on what the notification says.
Instead of just a few hardcoded icons in the firmware, NC will display icons for every single notification.
Display whole notification text instead of just short excerpts.
Filter out notifications saying specific text.
Pausing system helps with controlling bursty noisy notifications like a group chat with a heated conversation.
Don't want to deal with the notification right now? Just snooze it for later (Android 8+ only).
Original vibration happened while you were distracted, and you did not notice it? App can keep buzzing for it periodically until you notice it.
You can still read excerpts of your notifications while the watch is not connected to the phone.
Don't you hate when your phone also makes noise / vibrate in addition to the watch's vibration? You can have auto-phone-mute that mutes your phone automatically whenever a watch is connected. Also, toggleable directly from the watch.
- Hourglass (
) - The app is loading data in the background. You can generally keep using the app while this is going on. - Phone disconnected (
) - The Watch has been disconnected from the phone. You can still use the app to read excerpts of the previously-synced notifications, but you cannot execute any actions - Error (E) - Something has gone wrong. Please make a GitHub issue with the reproduction steps.
If an indicator is filled with black color, it indicates the currently selected notification.
- Diamond (◆) - Unread notification
- Square (■) - Paused notification (see Special Actions below)
- Circle (●) - Read, unpaused notification
- Right arrow (>) - There are more notifications that way
- Left arrow (<) - There are more notifications that way
- Single click / hold DOWN - Scroll text down (wraps on click)
- Single click / hold UP - Scroll text up (wraps on click)
- Double click UP - Switch to previous notification (wraps around)
- Double click DOWN - Switch to next notification (wraps around)
- Click SELECT - Open actions menu
- Double click BACK - Open settings
- Click BACK - Exit
- Double buzz - Either the actions menu is still loading or the phone is disconnected (check the status icon). If former, this usually takes a very short amount of time, so you can usually retry immediately.
- Double buzz - Trigger failed. That usually means the phone got disconnected (check the status icon).
- Single buzz - Action triggered successfully
- Double buzz - Phone got disconnected from the watch while the app was open (check the status icon).
- Single very short buzz - You have periodic vibration enabled
When triggered, all vibrations from the app that created this notifications will be temporarily paused.
The watch will not vibrate for any new notifications from this app until it is manually unpaused or until all notifications from this app are dismissed.
When triggered, all vibrations from the selected conversation will be temporarily paused.
The watch will not vibrate for any new messages in this conversation until it is manually unpaused or dismissed.
By selecting the Snooze action and then selecting the time, notification will "disappear" from your phone & watch and re-appear after the selected time. You will get notified about it again.
Note: only supported on Android 8 and newer.
If you just want to simply mute or hide a specific application, you do not need to deal with the entire rule system. Just select the + button and then the mute or hide option.
On the top of the rules list is the Default Settings rule. These settings are applied to any notifications before any other custom rules are applied.
Rules are a primary way to configure notifications in the Notification Center. Rather than a static configuration, they consist of a conditions that determine when a specific rule applies and settings that get applied.
Example rules:
- When a notification comes from the
Work Emailapp, mute that notification. - When a notification comes from the
My Social Mediaapp and contains the wordPromotion, hide that notification. - When a notification comes from the
SMSapp and containsMy Last Name, but does not containMy Annoying Cousin's name, change the vibration pattern to something specific.
You can currently set up three different conditions for every rule:
- Originating app / channel - Passes when a notification originates from a specific app or a specific notification channel of that app
- Whitelist regex - Passes when a notification title, subtitle or body text contains the specified regular expression
- Blacklist regex - Passes when a notification title, subtitle or body text does not contain the specified regular expression
All conditions are applied using the AND logic - every condition on the rule needs to pass in order for the rule to apply. There is currently no way of performing OR logic, but you can simulate it by creating a copy of the rule.
Every rule has a bunch of settings that you can apply when rule's conditions pass.
Settings are applied sequentially to all passing rules from top to bottom. You can reorder the rules by drag-dropping them in the rules list to change the order of applying.
