Before, I picked up my phone at every ping or vibrate.
When I wear the watch, all phone notifications are automatically muted and the watch is set to only notify a few apps (Whatsapp, phone calls, calendar). No emails, no kik, no games nothing.
If you’re on Android, long-press the notification and select “silent”. The notification will still be there, but it won’t vibrate or light up the flashing indicator (if your phone has one). Smart watches are still useful, though.

You could have just disabled notifications for all apps except Whatsapp, calls and calendar on your phone.
So it won’t improve your life. Way to go.
It did mine, it was asked and I answered.
Yeah but those notifications are still valuable, they just need to be dealt with on a daily basis not instanteously.
You can still do that with your phone

that’s great but I don’t want a silent notification, I want it to buzz. 4 priority levels, watch>buzz on phone>silent on phone>snoozed until EoD
I turned off all notifications but calls, missing a lot of things, but well, I guess it’s not that important if it’s not a call.
Still not answering call though. I’m not a logical person
That’s a very smart idea!
