Anyone know if its possible to hide the white band that has the latest notification from watch face? There are times where I dont want to dismiss the notification (because I may want to reference/follow up with it later), But that white band takes away from the watch face. I can post a pic if it will help to illustrate what I am talking about.
Only way I know how to is to mute notifications

Boo!
I dont want to have to dismiss them cause then I can just swipe up and seem them anyways... I dont need a white bar AND a notification count icon too...
In ambient mode, the card becomes black or dims and you can see the card along with the dimmed watch face, however, the card is still there obstructing. So not sure if that's the answer you want lol.
This flaw in Android Wear has me considering returning my 360. Once you dismiss a notification it's gone for good. There should be a way to hide or snooze them.
In the wear app you select hide cards on dimmed screen.. If you're in ambient mode that would most of the time. That's about the best you can do.
Hey guys, I wasn't sure if this warranted it's own thread, but I think it does since there's no "Ask Any Question!" sticky like some of the big boards.
Anyway, when listening to music through Pandora, I have a persistent notification allowing me to pause/play my music from my Moto 360. Can I turn it off? Notifications are very large and block the face so I can't tell the time. Normally, I'm okay with swiping others away, but this one is persistent. I tried adding Pandora to the notification mute list in the Wear app, but that didn't work. I can mute all notifications, that's not what I'm after. Can I just turn off music control somewhere?

Go to Android Wear app on your phone, select the Cog Gears (Settings) icon on top right corner. Select first option "Mute app notifications", select Pandora or any apps you don't want notifications to be pushed to your watch. Done!

Is there a way to disable ALL notifications? I dont see a reason to get notifications on my watch when I always have my phone on me. I guess you could say I got it for an advanced watch, not another gadget to notify me of e-mail, etc

You can just pull down from the top of the watch until it vibrates and says "Mute" then you won't get any notifications until you repeat those steps to unmute it
For some reason, this trick doesn't work with tune in radio
Really?

Ummmm, you did know it was a smartwatch when you bought it? If your not using it, as a smart watch, then I don't see the point of you owning it... Just saying.

Wanting to get rid of a persistent notification that bothers him hardly puts him in the category of not using it as a smartwatch.
Even if you turned off all notifications, it's still a smart watch, it runs apps, responds to voice queries, keeps your phone unlocked, etc...

Remember during initial setup when it asked you to activate the Android Wear notification listener service? Undo that. Then it has no idea when you have a notification.

This doesn't work for Spotify either. Are there any other idea's?
Just adding my voice... it's a really annoying 'feature' of Android Wear (or Wear OS, as it now seems to be called).
I went through and I disabled every single notification (about 300 or so of them) and the media notification still appears, and doesn't time out. This is annoying because it lights up the screen which eats through my battery. Why can't it auto-hide itself LIKE EVERY OTHER NOTIFICATION?
Grrr....
Everytime I drop down my notification panel on my phone I see android wear. I can't swipe it away. How do I get rid of it without stopping all notifications that are set to go to my watch?
Turn off notifications in the app info for Android wear app. I'd can't think of the app giving any notifications other than disconnects and reconnects and well you can see that on the watch as well
Edit tried on the note and it still hangs out probably have to have root I'd suppose which I don't need persay

I have root and it still shows up too. Bummer
Android Auto has come a long way especially now that it has OK Google voice commands in it. Before I didn't like it because when a message popped up, I'd still have to touch the notification in order to have the message read out. Now I can "OK Google" and say "read my messages" and it will read them out loud.
My biggest worry is burn in. That navigation bar at the bottom of Android Auto doesn't change at all. Has anyone had any issues with Android Auto causing burn in on their screen? I used to use drivemode which ran int he background but it gets finicky at times especially if Google has update their Google search app.
I tried to turn on screensaver and while it comes on when android auto is activated, I can't see any notifications while the screensaver is on.
Any advice?

I use Android Auto 45m+ 2x/day 5days/week for the last 2 months on my Pixel and haven't noticed any hint of burn in. Mine is typically left on the map view, but I do switch to the audio view occasionally. I know that's only one data point, so take that for what it's worth.

You should be fine honestly. I've used mine for 7 hours straight in our last road trip to visit family couple weekends ago. Had it on high brightness because the dang rental want tinted.

FWIW I've noticed burn-in on my Note 4. I've been driving for around 2 hours a day for the last few months, and have it on map view. There's a definitely yellowing where the map sits with noticeable light patches where the button bar is at the bottom, and the info panel at the top.
you'll get burn in. it's amoled. i've come to terms with it for the simple reason that i probably won't have the phone for more than a year or 2, so who cares
I use a app called "Navbar Apps" by damian in the play store. it changes the nav bar colors based on the app in the foreground. this keeps the black away, and gives my pixel a nice look.
I have serious burn in on the S7 Edge, can see the bar at the bottom, the arrow button for getting to maps and the search button on the top right from the maps interface (round circle with a magnifying glass in).
Didn't notice until yesterday. Now can't stop seeing it. Have used Android Auto for about 4 months 60 mins a day at least split into two commutes.
Looks like my next phone will be IPS LCD
You will get burn in. Thats just how amoled works.

Hi guys!
In the past I had an Android watch, a Pebble, several Samsung watches... The best one so far was Android.
Samsung Galaxy watch would be almost perfect if it hadn't this stupid "feature"
In short, the notification dot on the watch is there to notify you when there are unread notifications on the watch, not on your mobile phone. One would say, so what, that's not a problem...
Figure this - if you have the " turn screen on" and "show notification details" options on, then everything you get on your watch gets dismissed immediately! How stupid is that??
Is there a workaround for this, am I the only one bothered by this?
I love how Android wear has this solved. Not only that you have a notification on your watch persistent until you dismissed it on your phone or your watch but also it shows details in a form of cards...
Same settings on my watch. Notifications don't get deleted
Mine do not get deleted too. However, if you clear the notification on your watch it does remove it from your phone too.

They don't get deleted, just the orange dot disappears, leaving me unaware of a new notification...

so easy just go to notification settings in the galaxy watch app and remove the toggle beside the turn on screen option. its useless anyways. if its on, the the orange dot wont appear because it auto dismisses it by design.

I know exactly what you mean. All notifications disappear way too easily! If you accidentally go to far, it's gone. Missed it! FTS! FFS!
I tried for long time to try to find a fix. Samsung has to fix this. NOTHING the user can do!

Yes, it's up to Samsung... but the problem is, nobody talks about it, I tried to Google the problem, haven't found anything...
It's like people don't see it or don't care about it...

But I want to see what's up in a glance when I feel the notification vibration on the watch. If I toggle it off, I will have to wake up the watch screen everytime to see what's going on...

I do like those two options, so I can immediately see the notification on my screen without touching it..... but the only interaction at that point is to scroll up or down to read the notification details or touch the three-dots on the right and select "Clear Notifications" If I clear notification, then that's what happens... notification gone (it would be nice if I could just swipe sideways to clear, because for some notifications I have to then scroll to the bottom of a list of options to select clear notifications). If I don't "Clear Notifications" and ignore it, then the notification disappears from the watch screen, The watch goes back to displaying the watch face, there will NOT be an orange dot on the watch face, but the notification will be in my watch's notifications queue for me to look at later, AND the notification will be on my phone.
Seems like that's about exactly how I want it.
I have "Mute connected phone" set in the Wearable app notifications settings, because if I am wearing my watch, I want the watch to be what notifies me; not my phone. Also, I have the new OneUI on the watch.
Same problem here. I'd like to have notifications to be persistent until I explicitly dismiss them. On my Galaxy watch a notification disappears after I saw it. Is there some setting? Thanks!
So I just got the galaxy watch 5 and had this problem. I found that some how my phone got put in do not disturb. Once I turned that off all my notifications came up.
