Any way to stop notifications from stacking? - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if there is a way to stop the preview cards from stacking if the notifications come from the same app, like WhatsApp? I use the wrist gestures to flick through my notifications with the font set on tiny so I get usually the whole message on the preview, but it is rendered useless if there is more than 1 Notification as it removes most of the preview and substitutes it with +1 more, or +2 more. I understand it could become hell if you have hundreds of notifications, but at least to be able to have the option. Can I set up tasker to do this? Any help would be appreciated.

[Q] Best Notifications Method for text and missed calls

Guys, I am looking for any suggestions you guys use for the best method to be notified of text and missed calls and such. It was always pretty good with the old iphone in such see the message swipe and then reply. I now really like the new little pop up that comes with the stock messaging app. But the popup is gone in about 2 seconds. Also do we not have any method to have notifications show on the lock screen. Just do not like at all to have to look in the notification center for this stuff. I do use Handcent texting mostly just for the pop up. But still not popup for a missed call. At least the S4 has a notification on the lock screen. I usually finally find a good set up but was wondering what most of you guys do. Thanks
You can try dashclock from play store. It's a widget that you can put on the lockscreen and it has a lot of extensions allowing you to see between others: clock, date, calendars, weather, alarm, gmail, whatsapp, sms, missed calls etc, battery info, etc...

Years ago I used Handcent solely because I could set recurring notifications. I've since gotten so attached to the little green droid that we now communicate via telepathy...or so it seems...
Why not rely on the notification light? I use Light Flow which not only lets you customize color but also duration and flash rate. So for me emails get a normal flash and turn off after 15 minutes. But a missed call is more important so I have it flashing red very fast and for a long time - like an hour so I'm sure not to miss it.
But this only works when screen is off of course.
I use Dynamic Notifications and Light Flow. The combo really works well for me and I like that I can schedule a sleep time so it doesn't light up the screen or the notification lights when I'm sleeping. DN will keep showing the notification at set intervals until I enter the app or clear it. Very simple, efficient, and customizable. LF is used mainly because the stock light settings did not have enough customizing ability.

Get Nils along with Nils+. This will give you very iPhone-ish lockscreen notifications. You can swipe them away to dismiss or slide the icon to launch the app. Nils is the main program and includes a widget (old method), and Nils+ will overlay the lockscreen with the notifications (new method, doesn't need a widget).
I personally use Nils beta from Google+: https://plus.google.com/communities/115156552435983276604?partnerid=gplp0
Use the links on the right side to Enable Tester for Nils and Nils+. Then you can download them. Nils is on the play store (no tester required), but you must be a Nils+ tester to use Nils+.
I really like the convience of getting a notification, not missing it and being able to reply quickly. As much so many other things the android system does betteras compared to IOS, This is were I struggle to get it better. The LED is great. Helps not miss anything. I have used Lightflow on and off a lot over the last year with a GS3. SO MANY mixed results. lights would work for some apss then not others and then getting the notification LED to cancel when message was cleared has always been a pain. Maybe need to give Lightflow a try on the G2. I'll check out Nils+ and Dynamic Notifications. For now I'm using Handcent which is working ok but I actually like the stock messanger. Thanks again!!!
if you don't mind paying, look up glowfly. it's a pop-up app for texting that works pretty well. I've been using it for about a year. I loved the stock g2 sms pop-up bc it didn't interrupt what you were doing, like if you're watching a video it kept playing... any other popup app, including glowfly, pause the video. but whatever. works better.

Heads up notifications when screen is off

Hi all, hoping you can help.
On my Galaxy S8 I've noticed a cool notification feature where when my screen is off and I receive a notification from a stock app (text message, calendar) the heads up notification bubble appears at the top of the screen as usual but the rest of the screen remains off. This is really good because it means I don't have to have AOD enabled which drains battery but I can get a quick glance at what the notification is. My question is what is this feature called and why does it only seem to work for stock apps? I'd love my Whatsapp, Twitter and Gmail notifications to show up this way as well but despite digging through all the notification settings I can't figure it out.
I have a feeling there is some feature which just isn't supported by non-stock apps but would be useful to know what that is...
TIA!
Settings > edge screen > edge lighting > manage notifications
From there you can enable the apps you want.

Well, I've just been doing some testing and with Whatsapp at least, I've managed to get this to work by enabling the 'Popup notification setting' in the Notifications settings menu and setting it to 'Only when screen is off'. There is a trade off though which is that you get an actual Whatsapp popup notification (not heads up) when you turn the screen on and I personally find that annoying but if it means I get the heads up notifications when my screen is off, then I might live with it.
Twitter and Gmail I'm still not sure about...

But that's edge lighting - that already works and is just a light based notification. I'm talking about a heads up notification bubble appearing when the screen is off so you can see who it's from and a preview of the message.
It's the same thing. Turn off edge lighting and you won't get those bubbles. It does require some tinkering though for most apps. Textra for example I had to change how it displayed notifications in order to get the bubble you are speaking of to work.

Also on the list under manage apps, there is a line which is bolder than the others. I think apps above that line are "optimized" to work with this notification feature.

Android Oreo 8.0.0 Heads Up notifications.

Hi, i've using oficial Oreo for a day now, and i have the same problem that in the previews, the annoying heads up notifications. I can't find the way to disable them in the settings, i did it through adb comands and use the floatify app but it have a problem with de notification bar, it overlap and it's annoying as well, i tried some other similar apps but they aren't optimiced for Oreo, do anyone of you know how to add a few seconds to the stock heads up? or an app that doesn't have so many problems, or i just have to wait a while?
in android 7 there was level notification and it was very useful but i didn't find it now in android Oreo !!
i hope someone help

When you say "heads up notification", are you referring to peeking where there's a short pop up message over the status bar? For example, every time I get a message on Facebook Messenger, there's peeking. If so, that frustrated me as well and I loved it when I could turn if off with Nougat's Power Notifications controls.
I finally found a way to disable peeking; I had to turn off sound by going to Facebook Messenger's App Info - App Notification - disable [Allow Sound]. I already use Lightflow to customize sounds/vibrations from my Nougat days. Once I disabled [Allow Sound], peeking stopped but I could still hear sound/vibration through my customization in Lightflow.
Problem solved for me.
Feel disgusting to heads up notification too.
try "Gaming Do Not Disturb"
I open it all the time to ban heads up notification
Here is how to set notification on oreo. go to setting > app And notification > then select your app for which you want to turn off or reduce importance of notification. If you select preference urgent / high / medium and low. then low means no sound no visual notification and urgent mean sound and popup.
Apps like telegram: it doesn't work properly, I have to do this for each conversation and group and that's annoying. any other tips? and the thing is it does revert back to urgent after few notifications

stop heads up notification

hello!
any one of you has tried this method?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/howto-4-to-disable-heads-notifications-t3197660
it has worked for me since s7, s8 and note 8...
thanks
You can eliminate almost all heads up notifications by going into the settings application, then click Apps, click Gmail, click Notifications, change all settings to "Make sound."
Repeat this for any app you do not want heads up notifications for...
Hope this helps!
What's a heads-up notification? The pop up banner ?

you are right!!!
in note 8 there was not this option!!!
Sounds like this is what I made another post about, just didn't see this one as I was looking in Q&A.
Why are the banner notifications so insanely disruptive on the Note 9 vs the Note 8? It's almost insane how different it is.
Edit: thanks to this post, think I found the setting driving me mad!
I still have the note 8 and i didnt have to do anything crazy to disable notifications for popping up. Its a feature in the android os that you can set for each app. Ive not had any pop up or heads up banners for a long time on the note 8 and the same for the 9
You can use system ui tuner from playstore there can you disable it
adb command no root needed.
adb shell settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0
That is for system wide
Note: the adb method no longer works for UI 2.1 and the adb hack isn't needed any longer. It would still be nice to apply a global default with this hack rather than changing each app individually. It's now under each apps notification settings, under "Message notifications" and is called "Show as Pop-up".

Smart pop up view with normal notification possible?

Fourth paragraph is the question If don't want the explanation lol:
OK so smart pop up is an alright feature I think! Reminds me of the old galaxy days and the Roms made for it with the same feature ☺. Is it called heads up display?
Anyway the thing it's missing is it only pops up the bubble and doesn't show any info forcing you to swipe down and look at the physical noticstion bar to see the info on the notification.
This makes me want to not use it for my messaging apps(the only reason to) because much like Facebook messenger it helps to see the message pop up for a second.
Basically my question is can we somehow even with an app enable normal notifications to pop up like they do with smart view off but still alao have smart view enabled.
I don't see why Samsung hides the physical notification and just has a bubble pop up it should be both! The bubble is just convenient to have as an option to view notifications over other apps lol. ?*

Sorry basically I'm asking to have both the bubble and normal notification come up as it does if smart view were to be disabled for that app! If both can work simutanesouly. Or if an app can achieve the same effect. I don't like most the apps that do bubble notifications just not as fluid as the old custom Roms or Facebook messengers version.

The edge lighting flashes the edge of the phone with a message notification, the popup bubble then appears and if i pull down shade the notifications are also there.
I don't think i could miss a notification with all 3 , short of a hammer popping out of the screen and smashing my head. ??
