Unmute watch notifications for particular app - reopened

Jangcy
7 months ago

Hi,

I am using Foreruner 955 and IOS Garmin Connect app.

Some time ago I have accidentally muted notifications from two apps that are important for me. 

I think that option to 'mute' particular application is no longer available when notification appear, but a year ago it was possible to dismiss or mute the notification. Yet, since I did it a long time ago, notifications from these 2 apps do not appear on the watch. For every other application - it works.

Also, my settings for those 2 applications are as for every other that work. Pasting the screenshot for one of them, which is iOS reminders app.

How I can get notifications to work for this app again? Reinstalling something? Reinstalling Garmin Connect App? Unpairing the watch? Resetting the watch to factory settings? I'd rather not do any of these until I'm assured that it would help.


This is reopening of old thread as I want to eventually sort this out, as it's annoying: support.garmin.com/.../

    Normally, you can disable notifications from a specific app by disabling the Notification Center option (Centrum powiadomien in your case). It keeps the notifications on the phone, and avoids forwarding them to connected devices. However, this option is enabled on your screenshot, so it should work. Garmin Connect iOS does not handle any filtering of notifications, it only happens on the OS level, or the notifications could be perhaps disabled in the concerned app(s). Do you get any notifications from the concerned apps on the phone self?

    Hi trux,

    Thank you for your message.

    Yes, on the phone I get all the notifications from the concerned apps. 

    For the reference, I'm attaching settings for the application that correctly shows the notifications on the watch (Signal):

    So, as you can see, it's the same as it is for the Apple Reminders app.

    What puzzles me, is that over a year (?) ago, when you received a notification, on the watch you had two options: dismiss and mute. Right now I have only dismiss option (wymaz in my polish case), but there is no mute option anymore. I remember that for these two affected applications, when it was still possible, I have accidentally hit mute. Since then, I cannot unmute them. Seems like this option had been somewhere in the Connect App, but its not anymore.  If it was android, I could probably download and install old version of the app and look for the option, but in iOS its not a possibility. Pasting the photo of only dimiss option.

    If you have any other suggestions that I may try, please let me know.

    P.S: Sorry for the edits, but it seems that this forum was throwing an error because I added polish character (:D)

    Signal's notifcation settings:

    Only 'dismiss' option (for other working application).

    I never saw any such option on any of my Garmin watches, so it must be something relatively specific for your model. I recommend asking on the FR955 forum, and see what other owners of the same model tell.

    Hm. I didn't know that there is a model dedicated forum. Would you be able to provide the link? Thanks
