Feature request: option to disable notifications when watch is not worn

This one will be very useful as it's annoying to hear the vibration when it's sitting on the kitchen counter when I am at home in the evenings.

Since garmin pay already is supposed to know when the watch is off the wrist based on the heart rate sensor, the same logic can apply to notifications also...

+1 I have two garmin watches and its really annoying, they are also time shifted with the vibration

yes that would be great, you should put it on the "demands" thread

I disable the phone connection in the controls carousel. Quickest place to enable and disable notifications.

I know this may not be what you want, and that you'd still want the device to receive data from the mobile, but it is a quick solution for the meantime. Works for me.

Maybe we should call it the "request" thread since we're in no position to demand anything.

I've asked for this a few times as well. Having 3 devices buzz when you get a notification is a bit of a pain.

I would love this feature as well! But for the time being i switch on the DND mode.

Yes, please.

Good idea. In addition to wrist based HR it should also work when a HR sensor is connected, otherwise it might stop during an activity.

You already have two options. You can turn off Bluetooth or put the watch in DND mode. Solved.
