About Feel The Wear - Notifications

Wear 2.0 users: You have to manually install the watch part of the app - this is a new Android Wear feature.

Weak vibrations on your Wear watch? Do you miss notifications? Feel The Wear allows you to set custom vibrations and sounds for your apps' notifications. Works also without a watch, let the phone have the custom vibrations! Phone only operation does not support sounds.

Now also SOUND including uploading of your own (premium feature)! Volume is linked to the watch's alarm sound volume or you can set your own.

Always contact me with any issues via email please.
App is not fully optimized for incoming phone calls because of Android Wear limitations.
Watch vibrating a 1-2 seconds before the notification shows-up on the watch is normal, my app is fast :)

PREMIUM:
* upload your own sounds
* create your own vibration patterns by tapping the screen
* automation via Tasker, Automate and similar apps
* home screen widget to toggle custom vibrations on/off (mute)
* option to repeat vibrations (customizable)
* advanced mode - edit vibration pattern string (including copy&paste), per-app options and per-contact patterns/sounds
* EXPERIMENTAL phone call sound - now also per-contact options
* optional global vibration for all apps (long press an app to block its vibration)
* custom screen-on time out for watch (keep the watch's screen on longer)
* hourly chime - vibrate every hour and/or at 15/30/45 minutes or even every 5/10 minutes
* and more

FREE:
* pick from 7 pre-defined vibration patterns or 12 sounds
* set vibrations even for apps which have non-vibrating notifications only (e.g. Skype, Viber, WhatsApp, Snapchat, etc.)
* optional long vibration pattern when phone disconnects from your watch (configurable in premium)
* options to change vibrations behavior when watch's screen is on
* quiet hours for people who do not charge every day
* Android 5 phones: option to obey priority mode (DND)
* optional "turn on watch's screen"

* optional custom vibrations on the phone e.g. when watch is disconnected. also works without a watch.
* configurable behavior when watch is charging or in a dock
* no vibration for ongoing/permanent/progress notifications
* add an optional delay to the vibration (settings)
* vibrations history to debug random vibrations
* and more

App needs a permission to read the phone's notifications and will ask for this on the app's first start. The watch can vibrate even a second before the notification arrives into your watch. This is because the watch will vibrate at the time a notification arrives into your phone and it could take some time for a notification to show-up on the watch.

It takes some time for the app to install into your watch, so wait a while. The app will never be visible in the watch, because it has no watch app. Once you can successfully test the vibration patterns from the phone app, the watch will vibrate as expected.

*App does not make physically stronger vibrations. It is not possible to make the vibrating motor stronger via an app, it depends on the watch's hardware and firmware.*

*NOTICE*:
If you experience double vibrations then set no sound and no vibration in the 3rd party app's settings for its notifications. More info here https://plus.google.com/110234199301708624596/posts/6WatCMWynD3

It's a great app. I just wish I could get actual google card notifications instead of random vibrations without anything to see (on the watch, they still show on the phone, but that's a bit inconvenient considering) - I should mention that I have the original Huawei Watch stuck on Android Wear 1.5 (since they aren't in a hurry to update it

If you want to get the most out of your watch notifications you need this app. Having custom sound notifications from my watch has been so useful! When I first downloaded the app the sound wasn't working with my phone/watch combination (LG G5/Asus Zenwatch3). I emailed Martin (the developer). He kept in contact with me for weeks, continuing to update the app and checking with me personally to see if it worked. Now he's got it working perfectly. That really impressed me. Great app, great guy. Buy it and support this developer.

Everything is working on my LG Watch Sport, only one issue. In the Android app I see 'Updating your watch...' all the time. I tried to reinstall Feel the Weather on my watch and my phone (Google Pixel) - still the same. However, all notifications working good! This app deserves five stars for sure!

Hello! I love this app but it seems that every time I start my music on spotify or play/pause it it seems to run the Global pattern. I'm not sure if they is a way to disable specific apps or if there is a setting for this but it would be great! EDIT: Solved by press and holding down on Spotify

Had to pay just to be able to try the function that was the entire reason for trying the app in the first place (wanted to make all notification vibrations just a VERY short kind of tap on the wrist rather than the current long vibration for everything). Worked for most things, but not for phone or voicemail which were two of the primary ones I needed. Emailed dev asking for a refund, as it's an in app purchase rather than a play store purchase that Google could refund and ZIP, ZERO, ZILCH in response. That's a few bucks flushed down the toilet and will ensure I'm less likely to try any "in app purchase" apps in the future.

When I purchased my ZenWatch 2. I was excited for the audio features since I was coming from a first gen Moto 360. However, when I learned that only audio notifications worked with phone calls and nothing else I was disappointed. However this app saved me and now I get notification sounds for texts, Facebook messenger and my emails. It's a great app and would recommend it to anyone who wants to try.

Vibrate for silent notifications doesn't work. If vibration for the phone is turned off in e.g. Messenger the watch doesn't vibrate. Then what's the point? :)

I could barely feel the vibration on my Moto 360 Sport. This app allowed me to lengthen the vibrations, on a per app basis. The premium version also has an option to identify the source of vibrations.

This app should be an inbuilt feature of Android Wear. Works amazingly well. Haven't tried the me update that released today on 8th Feb 2017 as I thought I'll do it only upon reading the reviews and experiences of other users. Afraid that I may lose the superior functionality in getting right now.

Does what I want, alert me if I leave my phone. But I get a lot of random watch vibrations. My watch (Fossil Q) will vibrate even though there's no notification on the watch or the phone. Is there a setting that I'm missing?
