Hi!
My gear fit has some problems with notifications on Facebook messenger. If i receive a new message, the watch doesn't vibrate and screen stays off.
If i look in the notifications menu on the watch, the facebook messenger icon appears and i can See the notification. So the watch receives the notification but doesnt alert me..
All other App-Notifications and alerts work perfectly.
Anyone with the same issue?

I have the same problem, but i think that is because the bubbles are open, if i close the bubbles from messenger app, the notifications work

After tried almos everything i've found solution for whatsupp notifications:
You have to set vibrate instead of "default" to "short" inside whatsup, this makes gear fit vibrate when it get notification and the mobile vibrates as well correctly. If set as mine in silent mode it doesn't vibrate but gearfit does as it should be
Maybe facebook messenger app have this kind of settings to override android general notifications system.

This drives me crazy...both whatsapp and Facebook messenger disregard device notification setup (silent, vibrate) and you have to change them in app manually every time for each app. This it so stupid, how can they be made to follow the current device notification profile?

In the facebook application, hit Menu -> Settings -> and look in Notification settings.
It should say "Notifications: Active" hit the checkbox next to it to turn it off
He's talking about the messenger app, not the facebook app itself.
So far as I know there is no way to turn off the notifications in the messenger app itself. I might make more sense to just uninstall it seeing as the normal facebook app lets you use chat when you want to anyway.
No I'm talking about just the Facebook App lol in it u can disable all the notifications individually besides the messaging one

Yeah, I'm having the same issue with the Facebook app for Android. It seems that you are only allowed to disable message notifications for a certain amount of time before it automatically re-enables itself. Pretty annoying, especially since I am using a messenger-aggregator app that gives me notifications for Facebook messages too. Any help would be really appreciated
So any option to disable chat notification forever? I only get them de-activated for 8 hours every time
hi we are just talking about facebook message notifications not all notifications, im looking for this one also....
is really stupid that you cant disable this.... what is the use of disable this for 8hours???
And you don't want to just get rid of the app?

what about log out from this app
It seems like any other notification can be disabled permanently but the messages one. Very stupid and extremely annoying indeed!

This works for me. I hate the msg app as well but like other notifications. Did this for each person I talk to. And it stays off perm after doing this for each user.

I'm having the same problem. I don't want to uninstall the app, or turn off all notifications, because I'd like to still get notifications on wall posts and comments.
As others have stated, I also use a messenger that puts gtalk and facebook together, and it's just annoying to receive double notifications for facebook messages.
It seems people are misunderstanding what is being asked.
Facebook has a great deal many different features and gives notifications for each individually. Notifications of new posts are separate from notifications of new comments are separate from notifications of new messages etc.
We all want to get Facebook notifications *except* for messages. We want to be notified when a friend posts to their wall or comments on a post we are involved in. We do not want to be notified when some one messages on Facebook... or rather... do not want to be notified twice.
Both the Facebook app and the Facebook messenger app will not let you turn message notifications off. You can turn every other notification off individually or you can turn off all notifications completely... but when you disable just the one for messages in either app it tells you when it's going to turn it back on. We want it off permanently without losing our other notifications.
Got a brand new Gear Fit and got it updated with Gear Manager v1.67.0523 and attached to a VZW Galaxy S5. For some reason I don't get any notifications, no alarms, no emails, no missed calls, nothing. Is there something I am missing?
You do have gear fit manager? Are notifications turned on in the app? Is the fit and phone paired?

and then I had the same problem with notifications which I solved by using Gear fit manager 1.55
Hi,
On monday I was able to receive notifications for messages. Today I noticed that I didn't receive any messages on my Gear S.
When I check the "notifications" tab on my Gear Manager app, I can't see the "Messages" app in the list.
How can I solve this ?
Thanks.

This happened to me after I set up Milk music. I uninstalled Milk then reset watch and the messages appeared again in notifications. Using restore feature did'nt work, had to setup watch again like new. Everything else I tried wouldn't bring back messages in notifications..
I had to reset as well.
it is a real pain. Samsung should solve this bug...
I'm not sure what happened to mine but late last evening during the course of normal day to day with both my Note 3 and my Gear S, the Gear S decided not to receive text messages any longer. Rebooted both devices, no go. Restored my Gear, no go. This morning I'm in the midst of a full restore from scratch to see if that fixes it. Hmmm.
I'm using the Verizon messages + app. The gear is lighting up with the notification but not vibrating or ringing. It is working for other notifications. Resetting the gear and not restoring didn't fix. Any suggestions?

Does anyone know if it's possible to use a non stock app with the gear fit such as Textra sms, Gmail, etc to reply to notifications?
I noticed when you receive an alert it only gives you a reply on the gear fit if it's using a stock app such as messenger for sms.
same question here. also, I can't delete my notifications on the fit... they just don't delete. paired with my note 4
There is a app called: gear fit notifications, its les you answer with predefinied text

I use GoSMS or Handcent from time to time. On the Gear S I just get the notification that a message came in then a button to open on device. I'd love to be able to reply using either app right from phone.
