Find phone (down the back of the sofa)

  • Hi

    The android app has a "Find Phone" option. On or off.
    I assume it should make phone shout for my attention. But all it seems to do is bing once, and I can see a gadgetbridge notification saying Find my phone. So it does do something, but not anything helpfull. So the question is, what an I missing? Can't change the notification sound from the bing.

  • So you're saying it does at least appear in Gadgetbridge as a notification, it's just that your phone isn't ringing continuously?

  • I had never used this before, so i ve just given a try to it.

    in « find phone », pushing « on » made my phone ring continuously with a blue popup screen, until i pressed « off » on the bangle.
    If my phone is setup to mute, obviously only the popup shows.

  • On my device the Gadgetbridge app crashes as soon as I press the "On" entry in the Android integration app on the watch... I'll grab a crash log later.

  • So we have 3 different outcomes from three uses.

    Mine does shows a gadgetbridge notification and that's all yes.

    Don't know why Nicoboss gets his to work though, you would want it to override the mute setting in theory.

    But I get more than johan_m_o

  • I guess it depends on the model and the Os of your phone (and its settings) as well
