M2D Apps - Sender, Bluetooth Manager - Receiver

Hi, since I am a newbie (got my smartwatch last week) and installed M2D last night. Works great, also with BT. I have a Finow 5+ with Samsung Galaxy S4 and is doing fine together. Both apps (M2D sender and M2D BT) have to run, of course, but the notifications can’t be switched off on my phone?

Also the message ‘M2D Bluetooth Manager / Tap to configure’ keeps sitting in the notification drawer. Can this notification be turned off via a setting? If not, all the same it is a great app.

I am also pleased that the BT reconnects very quickly on my watch without having to choose the sender (while it wants me to choose) :smiley:

Also, the settings are not very clear to me, because they are cut short (it still is a watch, eh?). Can anyone post the settings for me?

did you choose smartwatch mode?

Do you know any way to save the phone’s M2D settings?

Each time I turn the phone off and on, the M2D configuration is cleared and again the passwords and IMEI of the watch need to be entered manually.

weird, does’nt happpen to me.

I’m not able to navigate between M2D notifications on Finow X5+. Swipe left/right does not work, only by deleting notifications.
Is it a bug or feature?

OK, I can elaborate further:

  • no ability to disable vibrations when BT connection is lost, very annoying
  • permanent notifications on the phone (for BT manager and sender), would be nice to choose low priority notifications mode like in gsam for example
  • option to not split long messages in reciver
    It would be awesome to have these features :slight_smile:

I think I did but I am not sure. Btw after switching off and on I did not receive the notifications - I think I have overlooked something so I deleted the M2D alltogether. I’ll give it another try 

Update after 45 minutes: okay I’ve installed the lot (Sender, Reveiver and 2x BT)

Okay a day later now

I got this one:

… am I doing something wrong here? I have the ‘Use smartwatch layout’ checked. I have a Finow 5+.

Edit: sorry 'bout the screen size… thought I did the right thing by embedding it from a public source  I’ll think twice next time

Nope that doesn’t work on Lemfo Lem5 (probably finow x5+ also) I spoke with Paco and he is also surprised   So my queston was that anyone find a solution for that behavior.

can you upload a video to show the problem?

On my Finow 5+ I cannot swipe to reply either. I can press the + to reply (see picture above).

Does anyone know how to remove those buttons in order to read the complete notification?

So I’m not sure if I’m doing this right but I keep losing connection between the watch and the smartphone. I have M2D as well as the M2D Bluetooth apps installed (sender on phone and receiver on watch) and it works but only sometimes. I open the BT app on both devices and select the corresponding device on each one and then I open the M2D apps (sender & receiver) and I send a test message while Receiver is open on the watch. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Then, when it works it will continue working whenever someone text messages but other times it will stop notifying. When I do the ‘Notification test’ do I need to leave that in the notification area of my smartphone? If so that means I need not only one, not only two but three items clogging up my notification bar. If I could make all of this work w/o having to babysit it all the time and not have my notification bar clogged with all sorts of stuff (ideal number would be zero) I’d be happy and I feel like I’m close but not there yet. Is it something I’m doing or is this just how this suite of apps performs?

Also, why are there some notifications that don’t get sent to my watch?

I have a problem, just whatsapp notifications works fine, gmail only notifies the email if it is a new one, but not an answer … and other applications like facebook or twitter simply do not notify anything

Any ideas?

you can install this apps on your watch but make sure that on the app on the phone that these apps are marked for notifications, btw FB drains battery really fast. what is your watch?

If you use square mode it works, Though square mode is very ugly and much smaller.

I think that the problem is around how the lem5 and finow x5+ use their app size. The swipe should work from a position closer to the center, not just the edges, because I think that the edges are not well represented in these watches
