  Well, the idea of Bangle.js if you don't have to if it bothers you. The handler for when you press the button on a message is here:

  I took me some figuring out how to get the edited file on the watch, but that definitely did the trick!

  You could try the fast reset app. If you do and there is something you think needs fixing please do tell! 🙂

  Awesome. Installed. I'll let you know if I run in any issues.

  These vibration patterns are exactly what I was looking for! I have also disabled repeat, which was set to 4 seconds (I feel it was longer than that). I'll test these settings today, see if it helps.

  I know about the long press, but I don't like it. I guess that is something I will have to get used to.

  Thanks @johan_m_o and @Gordon.

  I have been using my Bangle JS 2 for a few weeks now, and as a former Pebble user I love the watch. I love the idea, the open nature, the battery life, the eco system. There's a lot to love here. Just a few tweaks and for me it's perfect!

  I do however have a few issues with notifications.

  1. I'm using banglejs Gadgetbridge on my Android phone. When I receive a notification the watch shows the notifcation and vibrates. However, it will not stop vibriting until I press the button on the watch. Which means that if I don't wear the watch (for example at night) it will just continue to vibrate and drain the battery.
     Is there a fix for this? Did I miss a setting in Gadgetbridge?

  2. Is there a way for the watch button to always instantly bring me back to the watch face? I don't need to see a list of older notifications. I find myself just endlessly pressing the back button until I see my watch face again after receiving a notification.

  3. Last issue, and I've seen others mention this as well; the vibration motor is really weak. I have my phone set to silent and use my watch to notify me for incoming calls and messages. However, I miss a lot of calls because of the week vibration.

  Is this something that can be addressed in software? Or is there a way to install a beefier vibration motor, like the on in the Pebble (set to jackhammer that thing could wake you up).
