Is there a way to split notifications in Android Lollipop. Would like to have a separate notification for every WhatsApp message instead of a grouped notification with all the messages (also with phone calls or SMS). Similar to iOS... Some applications like Calendar do it, but for some reason for GMail (same email address), WhatsApp, missed calls, etc they are only grouped and don't know if can split them into separate notifications. Can I? How?
Thanks!

I use SMS reminders in Google calendar. For some reason default Hero messages application does not group these messages under one name as it does for other contacts so I have pretty lengthly list of Google reminders in my inbox.
I tried adding dummy Google contact but it did help. Maybe I should have add telephone number to it but there is no sender number in message details.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
I had a similar problem, because each reminder message is from a unique number (the proper shortcode followed by a sequence number), so that Google's system can identify individual messages (and replies when applicable). I never did figure out a way to get them to group, but I did find a work around. I switched my notification types from SMS to Pop-up (in my GCal settings, online). If you have notifications turned on in your phone's calendar, then the calendar app on your phone will alert you (similar to the way the alarm does) rather than getting a text message. The other advantage to this, at least in my opinion, is that if I don't notice it right away, it'll snooze and pop up again in a few minutes, unlike a text message, which is a one shot thing.
So, i'm pleased with the stock text messaging app in ICS finally, except no notification reminders. so, back to Handcent, which has become such a bloated slowware now, but i can live with that. i'm used to it.
Then i see no notification reminders in gVoice. no notification reminders in gTalk. Don't want emails to have reminders, but anything chat / text / video calls / internet calls etc should have notification reminder settings. NOTHING DOES!!!
i seriously don't want to need to look and unlock my phone every 5 minutes to see if i missed something!
Hi there, Android newbie here
I just came across this WhatsApp widget for Root which is able to display recent messages. I was wondering how the developers managed to get the data from WhatsApp.
As of now, I can think of three possible ways:
a) The widget refreshes its contents whenever it detects activity on the WhatsApp message database.
b) The widget "hooks" methods that get called in one of WhatsApps activities when new messages arrive and mirrors the messages into its own database.
c) The widget listens for push messages with the WhatsApp signature or listens for traffic between WhatsApp and their servers.
I use the termin "hooking" because of the way iOS tweaks are written, I have no idea if this is possible on Android. Which way is more likely? Any suggestions are appreciated
Let me elaborate on the background of my question: I noticed that WhatsApp groups new messages as a single item in the notification window. I'm thinking about selling my iPhone and getting an Android phone, but I would like to have a preview of all incoming messages like iOS's notification center.
Hmm... anyone? is this the wrong board?
I have Note 5 with 7.0
Installed native Samsung messenger app and Google messenger app that is default that I'm using.
Sometimes I receive messages that doesn't appear in the messaging thread and notification isn't received. I know I receive the messages because I have Cortana installed that is pushing notifications to my laptop. I see these text received notifications on laptop but it's not appearing on mobile.
Any clue?
Is there any way that I can get 'grouped' notifications on my GTR similar to wear os or tizen?
For example, if there are 5 messages from person A and 5 messages from person B, then the notification should show A(5 messages) and B(5 messages). Once I open the first notification, it should list down the messages from that person.
By default, each message is shown as separate notification which is very annoying (especially for notifications from WhatsApp groups)
Thanks !!!
