Hi, my corporate email client on android is using airwatch inbox. is there anyway to get the mail notifications appear on my android wear watch? any advise is deeply appreciated.
thanks in advance.
Currently AirWatch Inbox does not support Android Wear notifications. I think no AirWatch app does this.
I would suggest to speak to your AirWatch admin, who is generally someone in IT, and he can raise a feature request to AirWatch.
I am also using Airwatch Inbox on my corporate phone and I briefly have paired my Gear 2 (running AW 1.3) with the phone.
Inbox produces normal notifications on the phone, hence they are showing on the watch.
But as far as I have seen, not the whole email text is showing (like it doesn with Gmail).
But there were notifications and a small text.
So yeah, it should also work for you.
Today I have bought myself a second hand Moto 360 and set it up on a new Galaxy S5 Neo (new company phone with Airwatch Inbox installed).
Without doing anything special, I already get the Airwatch notifications on my Moto 360, but only (as said before) the body of the email.
Not the complete text of the email.
I've been using Outlook on my Galaxy S5 for a while now and was getting email notification on my watch (Moto 360 2nd gen) without difficult. Then I just stopped getting email notifications. I appear to still be getting calendar notifications, but not email.
I did two things around the time when the notifications stopped:
1.) Installed an app on my phone create extra vibrations on the watch when notifications were received (Feel the Wear).
2.) Setup the default sammy calendar to sync with my work's Exchange calendar so I could get calendar info in WatchMaker.
To trouble shoot I've tried:
a.) Uninstalling the app listed above and removing the calendar sync setup.
b.) Uninstalling and re-installing MS Outlook
c.) Verifying that Outlook is not listed as a block/ignore app in Android Wear
d.) Forgetting and reconnecting my watch
e.) Verified that I'm getting outlook notifications properly on my phone.
f.) Searching google and xda... couldn't find anything, but I'll admit I didn't do a super huge search here in xda.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm working around this right now by using eNotify, but I hate to use additional programs to do something that I should be able to do without them.
I have the same issue. About 2 days ago Outlook stopped sending notifications to my watch (LG Watch Urbane). I still get them on my phone, but they do not get sent to the watch.
I do not have Feel the Wear and I have not made any recent changes to how my phone syncs anything. I have also tried disconnecting and reconnecting everything and confirming that Outlook is not on the notification block list. I updated the Outlook app from the Play Store today, but still no joy.

I've tried even doing a factory reset on the watch, and this has only led to bigger problems. Now ALL notifications are being super temperamental for me.
Same problem here. I'm glad to see someone else is experiencing it. I've found nothing helpful on google about it.

is saying that it's a Microsoft issue. Can't verify that info, but it does seem consistent with the fact that we all seem to have noticed it stopped right around the same time and it's only MS Outlook that did it.
Same thing here on my Huawei Watch. My workaround was to restart notifications from the stock email app, so at least I won't miss anything. If it's fixed and I start getting double notifications I'll turn them off on the stock app again.
Pull down previous version from apk mirror and give it a shot.

Reviving a bit of an old thread here, but I finally got around to trying out this suggestion and it works. I pulled version: 2.0.17 (106) and installed it. I'm getting notifications on my watch again.
Current version is 2.0.36, which was just released yesterday it seems. I tested all versions on APKMirror between 2.0.17 and the newest and 2.0.17 seems to be the last version that will send notifications to Android Wear.
Where I can get the 2.0.17 version?
Thanks

Make sure, if you do this, that you disable automatic updates in Google Play Store app. Otherwise it'll just try to overwrite outlook with the newer version automatically.

I believe I did submit a report, but I'll do it again just to make sure.
On a side note, after trying a BUNCH of different programs, here's what I finally settled on:
I'm using the newest version of MS Outlet. This obviously doesn't get notifications to my watch, so I'm running AquaMail and using the imap interface to get push updates from my Exchange Server. AquaMail did the best job in terms of speed and notification type, at least for me.
Others I tried:
Cloud Magic: Speed is decent, but I only saw the first notification on my watch. Subsequent notifications never went to watch until notifications on phone were cleared.
BlueMail: This was horrible slow for me. Even 5+ minutes after Outlook or Cloudmagic would see the email Bluemail still hasn't received the message. Not sure on notifications on watch.
Mailwise: Very fast on receiving new email, and the notification showed on the watch for each notification, but after the first one you just get a list of outstanding notifications for Mailwise so you don't get to see the full subject, title or body of the newest notification. Outlook in version 2.0.17 (the last one that sent notifications to the watch) did the same thing.
After pulling 2.0.17 my watch is receiving notifications again. I have also reached out to support with this info. I am running Marshmellow and everything seems to be working fine. Hopefully, they will fix this on their latest release. For now, all Outlook updates are off.
Thanks again!
Thanks for this I thought I was going crazy as I think I just started using Outlook right before that update came and removed the watch notifications.
I noticed this too, I assumed that it was a change to the security policy... it'd be nice to have it work again
Just got this back from Outlook support :
Hello Andrew
Thank you for contacting Outlook Mobile Support. I understand your concern but we no longer support Android Wear. If you would like to address these issues then you will need to contact the retailer! I apologize for this inconvenience.
Warm Regards
The "retailer" you refer to is Google. They support the android wear app and the watches. The issue is that the outlook app is not sending notifications to the Android o/s in a normal manner. Every other app works just fine. Only the outlook app has this problem. The notifications did work until the app was upgraded beyond version 2.0.17. Something changed that broke the notifications at that point. I do hope you will continue to support your app and the android wear community!
Hello Andrew
That is when we stopped support the Android Wear devices. We will support Android Wear when Android Wear advises us to again. We enjoy helping! I apologize for this inconvenience again!
Warm Regards
So they know it's busted but won't fix it unless Google calls them??
That is horrible and typical M$.
It is not free, but touchdown has exchange activesync with push notifications. I am a teacher and it is a huge help with all the email I get.
Alternatively, you could downgrade outlook and not let it update.

Figures. I found it really useful to have work email and calendar notifications sent to my watch as I am not always at my desk. I reported the "bug" and got basically the same response as above. I guess the community will need to come up with another Microsoft work around. Does anyone know of a killer feature or bug that was fixed between 2.0.17 and current? Trying to decide if the juice is worth the squeeze.
well, my Mother bought herself the no.1 D5+ smartwatch , now i'm stuck at setting it up.
We have a dual sim card in her smartphone and one in the watch.
Now i tried to setup her google account to import contacts/apps/ect from phone to the watch, but i found no option to do so. I tried a reset from software side, but was not able to confirm the reset due to screen size.
Where can i :
add her googlemail account?
make the screen font size smaller?
i managed to install a new gmail-account via playstore, and wanted to send the contacts per mail, but gmail is not installed and again due to large font-size i can't access the play store, which makes the watch unuseable.
I'm getting lightly frustrated. I hope you can help me.
Hi,first thing,how to add google account.Download Chrome on your watch,click it and then there an option would show up.Accept the suggestion and then sign in your account.
Second,ummm,this is a common issue on these smartwatches.But look at thishttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.host.market&hl=enYou can control your watch via pc with this app.It would show your watch screen on pc.
Hi there,
I have the no.1 s9 and I'm searching for a solution to sync the activity data with google fit. The fundo wear app often looses my connection so I'm looking for another app to see my activity data.
Regards
Have you tried the MediaTek SmartDevice app?
Every few days I get a message that my watch hasn't synced with my phone for a few days. For the life of me, I can't find a way to do that in the Michael Kors Access app. I'd rather use the Wear Os app, but this watch isn't supported as far as I can tell.
