Title: Aquamail @ Android Wear - disable vibration
Post by: lennyd on December 29, 2015, 05:56:41 pm
Hi Kostya,

is there any possibility to disable vibration on AquaMail notification on Android Wear? I'm using AquaMail for private and also work email, where I receive hundreds of email. So far everything is ok, but when all of these email are vibrating on watches, it drains watch battery very fast (for example, during a weekend theres no problem with battery on watch, but on working days it's off until lunch).
I don't want disable all notifications from AquaMail, but just vibration - and even better, for certain account. I don't know if Android Wear supports something like that, but if it does, it would be great  :).

Thanks
lennyd

I don't use my Android Wear much, but --

-- believe there is a way to do this in settings on the watch itself.

In terms of what happens on my side -- AquaMail only sets a vibration on notifications if that's enabled in its settings (under Message notifications).

PS - the second case where my code would ask for vibration is if you use "Priority notifications" (AKA "heads-up"), this is again in AquaMail settings under Message notifications.

Android ignores the "priority" flag unless a notification has a sound or vibration, so if neither is set by the user, then vibration is requested.

Took my LG Watch off the shelf, did a full reset, installed Android Wear app, paired etc...

No vibration on the watch when AquaMail was posting its notifications -- the app's "vibrate" setting is OFF for me.

And the watch did vibrate (and the phone did too) when I enabled vibration in AquaMail.

Maybe I misunderstood? Are you proposing a separate setting -- "force no vibration on Android Wear even if it's enabled on the host (phone)"?

Hmm, that's weird - behavior of your phone and watch is exactly what I meant. But it does not work  - I'm not using vibration on my phone, but watches vibrates all the time (Huawei Watch). I'll try explore watch settings, if there are some extended settings for separate apps.

Thanks for help,
