Used to be program that let you use Text to Speech to Gmail, Hangouts.... all notifications you want to setup.
Got a new phone but the program is gone, I am back to hoping I notice vibrations.
Did the Developer give up on the app ?
Do you know what the app was called ?
The only thing I found on Google Play was something called Feel the Wear.
The program documentation seems to say to can get sound notifications not TTS but you can set it so when you get Gmail it plays one of the sounds.
Does not work for me at least not yet.

hi
i had a quick search on the forums and havent found a solution, i have just changed from o2 to 3 mobile PayAndGo, (needed to save some cash) i had a notification mp3 setup to play on new email, know i understand that the same mp3 is played for any notification and not just a new email, but since been on three my phone plays the notification sound more than i get emails, im costly picking up the phone and there is nothing in the notification window or new emails.
im running android 2.2 stock, i don't seem to be able to find anyway of disabling the notification sound or anyway to say what to notify on, in settings/sound i can change the sond file that is played but don't see any way to disable it, and i don't seem to be able to find out what is causing the notification sound to play.
anyone help or know of an app that will help either set what condition the phone plays a notification or shows an event log?
i think it is down to the phone doping between 2g and 3g or coming back in to service.
thanks for taking the time to read this.
it is the mobile data reconnecting causing the Notification sound to be played.
I have a random notification sound on my phone and I can't figure out what it is. It's like a "reverse doorbell" if you can picture that. Instead of DING-ding, it's ding-DING...so low ding to high ding. When I go to my phone there is nothing in the notification area.
I don't have a ton of apps installed, about 3 pages worth when I pull up all of them.
I feel stupid for not being able to find out what's doing this, but I'm starting to get frustrated. Thanks for any help!

Try this: Go to into the Sound settings of your phone and navigate to the notification sound setting. Go through all the sounds and find the sound that matches the one you are hearing. Note the name of the sound and then go into each app that has a notification sound and see if any of the apps currently are set to that notification sound.
Or this: Turn off all notification sounds for all apps that give notification sounds (email accounts, calendar, SMS apps, etc). Confirm you no longer hear the sound and then one by one start enabling notification sounds for each app. Hopefully you will be able to pinpoint which app is making the sound.
Hope this helps!
Dingding
Did you check to see if your gmail account had notifications turned on? Mine kept making that ding-ding noise until I figured out how to disable it.

Ha, I was hoping to avoid this (going through each app) but that's what I did. Turns out it was Yahoo Mail. I turned off the notifications at the top of the screen, but they hid the notification "sound"! Thanks for your help!
I just noticed that the stock messagin app wont vibrate or play sound notification while "Message/call voice notification" is activated.
Love that feature - to hear who is textning you without having to taking the phone out of the pocket.
Maybe I have boken this feature myself somehow, but however I try I cant get it to work

I simply can not enable the awesome voice notification at all anymore. I used to, but now its just not "press-able" in settings.
Hi all,
my Google Now reminders fail to vibrate. The reminders will vibrate and play notification sounds on the phone though, but on the watch I can only see the card if I occasionally activate the display.
Actually those Google Now reminders would be extremely helpful as I can quickly set them up by voice command, but the missing vibration renders them useless.
Is it just me or does anybody else have this problem as well?

I am actually surprised hardly anyone is commenting about the issues with Google Now on the watch. It makes me believe my watch is damaged somehow.
Since the upgrade to 1.4 Google Now is very inconsistent. I get cards on the phone and not on the watch, not even a vibrate. I installed "Feel The Wear" and get vibrations but no cards. I have to open the Google app on the watch to see what was the notification.
Integration with Google Now was the reason I chose Android Wear instead of Samsung Gear.
Now it seems Google does not care about Android Wear.
I was also surprised that there was no feedback to my thread here. I was also searching different sites and found evidence, that there is indeed a problem with the Google Now reminders.
Example:
https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidWear/comments/45jfym/google_reminders_will_not_cause_the_watch_to/
But I still don't know if it is not working for everyone. It would be good if someone who has working vibration notification for Google Now reminders could comment on this thread.
I guess the question should be be:
Who is having NO problems with Google Now on this watch?
I haven't had any issues with Google Now but I don't use it for a lot of things other than sports scores and weather.
I have a new A5 2017. I DON'T play music on it but I PLAY A LOT OF GAMES.
It's really annoying me that when I get a message or email or something a notification pop up appears and obscures part of my game and I have to wait for it to go away before I can carry on playing.
I don't seem to be able to find how to stop this without turning off all notifications. I don't really want to do this. I will know which app a notification is from because of the sounds I have allocated to them. I don't play music so I don't mind how much noise they make. I just want to get rid of the pop up messages.
Can anyone out there help me please?
It's very simple actually7, specially on samsung phones like this one. Just install "game Launcher" app from the Galaxy Apps, enter the app and enable "Game Tools". That will enable a floating button on every game you play, where you can diassable alerts while playing, block the navigation buttons and even record your gameplay (internal sound supported).

Do not disturb mode mutes all calls and alerts on your device, unless you set them as exceptions. You can set Do not disturb mode to turn on and off automatically at scheduled times.
