Really great module, jumped in to say how useful this is! Will buy pro version in a few days if all keeps working as cool as it does now.
Small question here, would it be possible to set a dark theme for the heads-up? This way reduced opacity could be even more useful than it now is, since I find I can't lower opacity that much with the stock light theme of heads-ups without losing reading capabilities on low backlight setups.
Keep up the awesome work!

Hi All,
We uploaded version 1.3, you can install it from Google Play, Xposed Repository or directly from the first post of this thread.
Version 1.3 adds the option to define in notification rules whether to hide notification ticker, title and / or content (each can be hidden independently of the others).
This gives great flexibility for protecting your notifications from wondering eyes, prevent notifications from occupying space with long and useless text, etc.
If you have any question, issue or feature request please let us know.
Feedback and suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Hi,
i have a little feature request.
While i drive with my car, i'am connected over bluetooth to my car. Whenever a new WhatsApp message arrive, the app "OutLoud" reads the notification text via Google Text to Speech over the car speakers. Everything good so far. But when there are >= 2 new messages in a WhatsApp group, "OutLoud" will read "2 new messages" because the ****ty WhatsApp stacks all messages in one notification and the notification say "2 new messages" then. So there is also an option in "OutLout" for that problem, which dismisses the notification as soon as they arrive. This works pefectly, but the dismiss of the notifications doesn't set the WhatsApp message as read. Then when a new message will arrive, a new notification is created with the "old" messages in it, because they are not marked as read.
Now to my feature request. Maybe you can add a option which enables/disables a function, which marks the whatsapp message as read, when the notification is dismissed. Should be simply to integrate as you already integrated the mark as read funtion and an event for the dismiss notification part. I think this would also a cool feature for other apps, like telegram.
That would be awesome Thanks for the cool app

Chris

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback and suggestion. Basically this can be done (configured in settings).
We'll see if we can distinguish between scenarios the case where the user dismisses the notification and the case where a code dismisses the notification, but if we cannot make this distinguish it will mean that you'll have to toggle this option on and off (if you don't always want conversations to be marked as read when dismissing notifications).
We'll update about it, thanks and enjoy
Really nice to see that the dev team is so active and open for feature suggestions.
What about a GMail "mark as read" option? Would be pretty helpful to not have to open the app to mark as read.
great app keep up with the hard work

We'll check Gmail / Inbox along with other apps (Hangouts, Telegram and more) in the very near future for notifications enhancements, and of course we will update.

Thanks for investigating.
Maybe it would be also an option to unstack notifications messages for certain apps. For example: Whatsapp stacks all notifications if there are more than one message for a user/group. iOS does it like this. Every notification is a single notification. There is no stacking of notifications. I think some people like the iOS notifications system more (Including me ).

Ive been using the GoSMS scheduled SMS - and sending texts to myself to act as a reminder with the pop-up notifications.
Works pretty well, but it is a bit of a hassle going through the process of setting up the scheduled text.
I recently discovered COL Reminder, which does do exactly as i want - but the UI isn't as stylish as i would like.
Any.DO is pretty good too, using the task list and having pop-up reminders when set.
Does anyone know of any other reminder apps which have pop-up notifications (rather than just the status bar icon notification)?
Appreciate any input.
If you don't mind having to involve a PC, Google Calendar supports SMS notification. But this is only settable from the web based interface. Too bad Google's so lax with the Android frontend--one gripe of mine is that you can't even book a bi-weekly meeting without the web-based version.
I digress...hope this helps and good luck.

Business Calendar Free is a good app to use as a to-do list and set reminders.
thanks for the replies guys,
cttttt - it is handy to know that Google Calendar can alert my by sending texts, though im afraid it is a little impractical for what i require.
muqtaliff - i have played around with business calendar in the past. but havent found away to enable pop-up notifications for reminders. how can this be done?
thanks again fellas.
In Business Calendar, go to settings, scroll down "Settings for New Events" and choose the Default Reminder Time (On Time/5 Minutes etc). Save the settings and test it out with an entry.
I use Tasks N Todos. Supports Notification Bar pop-ups, ringtone, and vibration reminders. Also syncs with Google Tasks.
Astrid Tasks is also pretty good.
but i am guessing with some addons u can give yourself location based reminders too..
Hey guys,
Im afraid i mustn't have made myself clear when describing what i am looking for... when i say "pop-up" reminder notification, i mean a notification which appears as a "pop-up" on the screen, not just an icon in the status bar.
Ive attached a couple of screen shots from Any.DO and COL Reminders to illustrate the feature.
Cheers.
Popup Notifier
Hey guys,
for anyone still interested, i have found a pretty useful app which does serve my purposes.
Let me just give you a little background as to why this is useful to me.
I have a few ways that I manage 'to do' type lists on my phone....
- I use Springpad to manage shopping lists. These are short term to-do lists which require no reminders but can be viewed and edited when the shopping is done.
- Any.Do is how i manage my long term to do list (synced with Google Tasks). I use these 'tasks' more like long-term notes. If someone recommends a band or album to me, i'll note in in Any.Do. If i have an idea for some art, i'll note in in Any.Do. These tasks/notes also do not require reminders.
Now... the one thing I had been missing (kind-of) was the ability to set short & long term reminders which gave me a pop-up notification. For things like "call mum on her birthday", "buy concert tickets when they go on sale", "put the bins out", etc. You would think that for tasks like this - it would be as easy as creating an 'appointment' in Google calendar and having a reminder set... this is only half true. Creating an appointment and setting a reminder is the easy part - sometimes actually being reminded by that reminder is not so easy. The way i see it, the little notification icon in the status bar is not sufficient as a reminder. These icons can easily queue up, and the status bar is normally pretty cluttered with other icons. So if you're anything like me - you don't pay too much attention to the status bar. The feature that is missing, is the ability to have an on-screen pop-up notification to remind us of all these 'appointments' we need to keep.
This is where Popup Notifier comes in. It is a pretty simple idea, which is very well implemented. This app will allow you to enable pop-up notifications for a variety of apps which may need them (SMS, Missed Calls, CALENDAR, etc).
So with this addon app, we can now create reminders through our calendar apps, and we will be notified of these reminders with not-so-easily-ignored pop-up windows.
Hopefully this will help a few peeps who share my reminder-related sentiments.
I look forward to hearing feedback and opinions of other peoples experiences.
cheers.
Reminder
Well, I recommend to Mr. Reminder Application for android users that can set for any reminding any event/occasion/day/date.
Hi, I've been using Hover for a bit and am loving it. The only slight gripe I have about it is that when I get a message through Facebook messenger, it always shows me the "chat heads active" notification before the actual message. What would be really useful is if you could blacklist these hidden (permanent? Not sure what the word is, see the attached picture) notifications that come from some apps (Google Now does it too) but still allow "normal" notifications through. This would also be really useful with peek: I'm assuming that whenever I get a Google Now notification like this, saying the weather or something my device is waking up to poll sensors etc. This isn't necessary, but I don't want to blacklist the whole app as other notifications (reminders etc.) are useful and I'd like to be able to Peek at.
Sorry if this doesn't make a lot of sense, it's rather hard to describe. I know hover and peek are relatively new features and I have no idea how hard this would be to implement, but if possible it would be great
Thanks for all your great work on this ROM!

Long hold notification > App Info > Blacklist > Blacklist from Hover/Blacklist from Peek
Sorry, got ahead of myself.
in fact the google now notification is not a persistent one, just it does show up very frequently, and sadly there is no option on which updates we'd like to receive
had the same problem with facebook messenger, just blacklisted the whole app because as there is a chat head hover notification would be useless
How do I turn off Gmail notifications on the watch with GNE?
I just want them to show up with the stock Gear Notifications.
Someone? Please?

In Notifications for Gear S (maybe it's not GNE, don't know), you can select what apps to have their notifications sent through Notifications.
For that :
1. start Notifications (on the phone)
2. press the "wrench" icon in the upper right corner to enter settings
3. Uncheck "Read Gmail Notifications"
If it's still showing notifications, you can use 2 other methods :
A. filter by notifications text
- in the settings use the "Do not read notifications containing ..." and add whatever text you know will always show up
B. selective notificationns
- in the settings activate the "Do you want to be asked for new...", this will make the app ask you for each new notification type. When the dialog shows up (when you get a notification from a new program) you can choose to send the notification or to ignore it
In case GNE and Notifications are not the same app, you should look into GNE's settings and see if it has similar ways to choose what notifications it sends.
But, then I won't see Gmail notifications at all, instead of only seeing them once, versus twice, which happens now with GNE.

If you only disable GNE to send the notifications and leave the standard Gear S notifications active for Gmail then you should get just one notification (the standard one).
If you instead want to get the notification just from Notifications Extended, well, i for one didn't manage to do that.
When i disable notifications for Gmail from the standard Gear S notifications then the Notifications Extended doesn't send the notifications either. I might have something configured incorrectly though, haven't played too much with the settings.
Hi, I'm looking for a way to disable the bundling of notifications of the same app grouping into 1 notification. I especially hate this with whatsapp, where I sometimes have to swipe so much to see the different messages I got, that it's faster to just go into the app.
In this cas:,
1. I have to swipe once to expand the main notification
2. I have to swipe to see the group messages
3. Even when fully expanded, not all notifications are visible.

Hi,
I have a call to inform about earthquakes (Yurekuru Call). It will display a popup with time until the earthquake approaches. It is very precise most of the times.
Still I like to keep wireless emergency alerts for redundancy, in case something is not working in the above app.
Unfortunately the emergency alerts notifications popup removes the apps notification and has always priority it seems.
This makes the apps alerts useless.
I see in the systems settings there is an option to "Turn on notifications". But I'm not sure what it means as I couldn't find any explanation.
Will this deactivate the emergency alerts completely or will it just disable the popover?
Is there a way to disable the popover but keep notifications so that in case my app misbehaves I have those at least?
Or can I set the priority for the emergency alerts popover somewhere so the apps popover has higher priority?
Thanks!

Do the emergency alert popups qualify as notifications? I don't think so. I can't find them in the recent notifications list.
@DarsVaeda
You're absolutely right: a popup is a non-fullscreen window shown on top of Android's screen, whereas a notification is shown in Android's notification bar
A popup and a notification are 2 totally different things.
I think you want instead of a popup a notification sent what only can be realized by emergency app's developer.

You got that wrong a bit. I want the emergency alerts to be a notification. I want the app to keep the popup.
