I MAINTAIN THIS APP

Please report any issues. Thank you for any feedback!

SETUP: Complications
1. Install phone app
2. Open app to enable Notification Access
3. Add complication "Icon 1"..4 to your watch face
See https://bubble.dynalogix.eu/notification-icons-watch-face-complications/

SETUP: Bubble Clouds
1. Find "Notification Bubbles" section in Bubble Cloud app on phone
2. Install this theme/plugin to both phone and watch
3. Open "Status Bubbles" on the watch
4. You will get a prompt to enable Notification Access on phone
5. The notification bubbles should appear on your watch face

Setup is shown in video from 3:47 → http://youtu.be/S-A976Dcjpc?t=227

To get a watchface with the exact look of the video:
1. Install the plugin on the watch first
2. Install Bubble Cloud next
3. If Bubble Cloud finds a single theme installed it will set it up from the get go
It takes 82 seconds as shown in https://youtu.be/1RavyDzmGRE

(If you don't follow this install order, you can still get the same look, but you will have to use the menu command "1-click themes" to select the Status Bubbles theme, then long press some bubbles to move them away from the watch face)

USAGE ON WATCH
► Tap any notification bubble to expand
→ "Phone+Eye" button to open on phone
→ "Block" button to blacklist app (long press)
→ "Trash" button to dismiss notification on phone+watch
→ Tap an expanded notification to go back to the list
► Tap the overflow (+X) bubble to see full list of notifications
→ "Gear icon" at top of list to change settings
→ Swipe left to dismiss a notification (BLUE)
→ Swipe left to blacklist a persistent notification (RED)
→ "Clear filter" at bottom of list to see full list
→ "Dismiss all" at bottom (press and hold for 1 sec)
► Long press any notification bubble to change settings
→ Max number of status bubbles (they are added dynamically)
→ Option to show app icon when no active notifications
→ Open app on phone for more settings

SETTINGS ON PHONE
► See "Notification bubbles" section or tap on "Status bubbles" in the Wear Cloud Editor
→ Customize all colors
→ Options to override the theme colors
→ Some colors have transparency control!
→ Some colors come from theme by default, use override
→ Button to blacklist/whitelist screen
► "Funnel" icon in Wear Cloud Editor → black/whitelist directly
→ You can only blacklist apps on the watch ("Block" button)
→ Use "+" FAB to blacklist/whitelist phrases
→ Tap item to edit
→ Swipe left to remove apps/phrases from the list
App is very battery friendly, not running when not used

BLACKLIST/WHITELIST
► Whitelisting overrides black lists.
So if you have blacklisted an app, but its notification includes a whitelisted phrase it will still show up.
► Phrase filters are case insensitive
► Use leading and trailing spaces cleverly!
► Wildcards might come if requested

BACKUP/RESTORE
► Status bubble color settings are saved with Bubble Cloud backup

Email me if something is still not clear.

Update review: I couldn't make it work for a couple of days and was about to email devs. Then, I noticed it started working this morning. Thanks for giving your contact info anyway. 5 stars for support and the complications help me a ton! ------previous review-------Devs seemed to stop updating the app, (last update 2023) and now it won't delete or dismiss notifications. Even after opening the app and holding the trash bin, or deleting by swipping it still stays

The app is maintained, the issue is not in the app, but in the OS. Please make sure the Notification Icons app on your phone is not "battery optimized". Unfortunately some phone makers put aggressive battery management on their devices which don't allow apps to run in the background. Email me at bcwhelp@gmail.com if you need help with it!

Actually very useful app as many watch faces cannot show notification badges on their own. It is sad that many watch faces cannot handle this complication properly. For example, pixel minimal watch face doesn't remove notification icon and counter after the notification was dismissed.

No response 😒 from Marine Commander developer though it has problems showing 3rd party watch face complication icons on the Galaxy Watch 4. Not just my app. On other Wear OS watches Notification Icons works well with Marine Commander, I have tested it. Notification icons also work well with built-in and 3rd party watch faces on the Galaxy Watch 4.

I got my first smartwatch for Christmas and was adjusting the watchface. I didn't like what wear os offered so I found the bubble laucher and then purchased this notification plugin. I had some difficulty with downloading the plugin onto my watch (after purchasing on my phone) and I emailed Greg (developer) in the evening on Christmas. I was not expecting a reply that day (I just didn't want to forgot to ask), I assumed he was either not working in the evening or celebrating like many others. He actually emailed me back same day with DETAILED instructions and screenshots of potential fixes. Turns out the issue was on google store's end, but I was able to download and customize my notification icons. Great app and AMAZING service!
