# Messages app
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This app handles the display of messages and message notifications. It stores
|
|
|
|
|
a list of currently received messages and allows them to be listed, viewed,
|
|
|
|
|
and responded to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is a replacement for the old `notify`/`gadgetbridge` apps.

## Settings
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can change settings by going to the global `Settings` app, then `App Settings`
|
|
|
|
|
and `Messages`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `Vibrate` - This is the pattern of buzzes that should be made when a new message is received
|
|
|
|
|
* `Repeat` - How often should buzzes repeat - the default of 4 means the Bangle will buzz every 4 seconds
|
|
|
|
|
* `Unread Timer` - when a new message is received we go into the Messages app.
|
|
|
|
|
If there is no user input for this amount of time then the app will exit and return
|

|
|
|
to the clock where a ringing bell will be shown in the Widget bar.

## New Messages
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When a new message is received:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* If you're in an app, the Bangle will buzz and a 'new message' icon appears in the Widget bar. You can tap this bar to view the message.
|
|
|
|
|
* If you're in a clock, the Messages app will automatically start and show the message
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When a message is shown, you'll see a screen showing the message title and text.

|
|
|
* The 'back-arrow' button (or physical button on Bangle.js 2) goes back to Messages, marking the current message as read.
|

|
|
|
* The top-left icon shows more options, for instance deleting the message of marking unread
|
2022-02-08 10:49:13 +00:00
|
|
|
* On Bangle.js 2 you can tap on the message body to view a scrollable version of the title and text (or can use the top-left icon + `View Message`)
|

|
|
|
* If shown, the 'tick' button:
|
|
|
|
|
* **Android** opens the notification on the phone
|
|
|
|
|
* **iOS** responds positively to the notification (accept call/etc)
|
|
|
|
|
* If shown, the 'cross' button:
|
|
|
|
|
* **Android** dismisses the notification on the phone
|
|
|
|
|
* **iOS** responds negatively to the notification (dismiss call/etc)
