Phone Notifications, missing new messages

Posted by Bill Gebhardt @billgebhardt, May 28, 2020

A good friend sent a message yesterday. I missed it because: I didn’t hear it, I don’t look at my phone much, and I can’t feel any vibration because it is loose in my pant pocket. How have others solved this issue?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Hearing Loss Support Group.

Here is the link,https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TPCHW8B/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . My son-in-law is the tech wizard and he seems to think it will work. As we understand it, all we have to do is sync the bluetooth. Will know when it arrives June 9-16. Bill

It works. Even thought "cochlear implant" was part of the promotion, it has more fitness than notification features, it serves my needs. Buzzes me for med alarms, ph calls, text and still working on email. Bill

@billgebhardt Thanks for the update. It's always good to know if the suggested technology works out. After time, you'll maybe find that there are features that lacking. I haven't researched, but there may be a measure of the strength of the vibration. Some people may need stronger vibrations from a watch??? Hope you figure out how to get the email notification to work. Keep us updated.
