I get a lot of email from work. I don't want to eliminate notifications but dismissing each one individually is a pain in the but. Before version two it kinda bulked them together and I could dismiss them all at once. Not all notifications, just the ones for that app. Now, I have to go through each one individually. It's a pain in the butt.

Hi, before I buy one wanted to find out three things if someone could assist.
-With voice commands and driving, is it true I still need to press an on screen button to send a message to someone via SMS
-With voice commands, can you schedule an appointment with a synced calendar other than Googles. I sync to an exchange calendar and when I played with google now a while back, it only created appointments via voice to the google calendar.
-with active notifications, what happens if you have three notifications? Does it also always show the screen when you take it out of your pocket. Hoping that it does?
thanks all
Voice commands will work similar to how they have on other Google NOW capable devices. So yes, you still need to press "Send message" to send it. As for the exchange stuff. If you could do it on another device, you can do it on this one.
Active notifications will show what you tell them to show. There are settings that allow you to choose what apps display. As the active notifications use the proximity sensor to decide when to display, it will indeed show whenever it's removed from your pocket. If you have multiple notifications, dragging your active lock upward will bring you to the app that produced the most recent notification.
Is that about as clear as mud? I suck at explaining things. Lmk if you need any clarification.
Thanks, just curious on two parts. If you have multiple notifications, the only icon you see is the most recent. The only way to know the others is by swiping the status bar I assume?
If you have no notifications, I assume the screen will not turn on, is that correct?
thanks

If you have no notifications the phone will show you the time when you pick it up or pull it from out of your pocket.

If you have multiple ones the others (older) show up at the bottom of the active display.

Right now, when I asked my phone to set a reminder for X at X time, it adds it to the Reminders section of Google Now. If the reminder is far away, I won't even see it on my phone unless I click the Reminders button at the bottom of Google Now.
Is there any way to make these reminders more obvious or more persistent?
For ex, if I add an event to my calendar, I can view my calendar events for the next X weeks with my Chronus clock widget right on my homescreen. Is there anyway to have my reminders show up on this widget too?
There's probably a better solution than this, but Google Keep widget displays reminders. You would set the reminder in keep rather than Gnow, but Gnow will still detect the reminder

Similar issue
Hi, I have a similar issue: the reminders are not persistent and intrusive enough. My phone may often bee a room away. When it rings, I'll hear, for sure, and most major Calendar/sms/email reminders too, but, the Google Now reminders are sort of "humble", "quiet", very much gentle and in the background. Also, they are not persistent. They will go off, and, if I'm not near the phone, they'll simply go away after a while. This makes it very unreliable, while I believe Google Now could be an amazing tool! Any way to make the reminders keep nagging with noise until you actually click "quiet" or "postpone"?
Love this watch but this one issue is driving me crazy. Very often I'll swipe away notifications from the Gmail app(yahoo mail account, not gmail) and they just come right back, or I'll get them multiple times. I don't have any problems dismissing these notifications on my phone, just on my watch. Anyone else having issues like this? Any ideas?
Dunno what's up, maybe it's the Pujie black face I installed, but I can't read any of my notifications any more.. I just get a notification that I've received 'messages' or an email, but I can't read them anymore on my watch.
Any one know why?
Ah well I feel a little dumb. It's because I've been using a borrowed Samsung phone, with all of it's crappy goodness... its Messages and Email apps don't support Android Wear.
So I installed Messenger and Gmail and set them up as the default apps. Everything's working as it should now.
Pulse has a lot of settings to check for the notifications. I had the same issue with it when I made one from scratch. I would say fine a preset that you like and change just a couple of things at a time till you get the look you are looking for.
Hello. I've had my phone for about a week now. I don't have much on it yet. Just a few apps and gmail. I have noticed that I am not getting a lot of gmail notifications. I'll get some here and there, but I do not get notified whenever I get gmail. I just looked on my computer and had three emails sitting in my inbox and didn't get a single notification for any of them. Sometimes it's fine. When I turn on the screen, the notifications will suddenly appear. I can see the lock screen is blank, and then the notifications will show up.
Anyone have any idea what might be going on with this? My wife is also having a lot of problems with twitter notifications. She'll turn on her phone in the morning and the notifications will come pouring in, one after another. It can take up to a minute for all of them to show up. She hasn't indicated that she has any problems with gmail.
We're both coming from Note 4s and never had any notification issues.
Thanks
Power saving is probably killing apps from running in the background. See if you can tweak the power saving settings so it's less aggressive, or if you can put GMail and Twitter on a whitelist so they won't get closed.
Try going into setting/apps/ top right corner menu button - special permission
go to battery optimization/ all apps
then disable your preferred app
So far Note 8 has been killing the apps to 'save battery' so notification isn't being pushed. I'm having the same issue. this helped a bit but sometimes still misses notification.
if you really want to push it more then go to battery monitor and put it into white list where the phone doesn't shut it down.
I'm still trying to figure out a solid fix but this is the solution so far with my research.
