The watch can vibrate even a second before the notification arrives into your watch.
This is because the watch will vibrate at the time a notification arrives into your phone and it could take some time for a notification to show-up on the watch.
It takes some time for the app to install into your watch, so wait a while.
The app will never be visible in the watch, because it has no watch app.
Once you can successfully test the vibration patterns from the phone app, the watch will vibrate as expected.*App does not make physically stronger vibrations.
It is not possible to make the vibrating motor stronger via an app, it depends on the watchs hardware and firmware.**NOTICE*:If you experience double vibrations then set no sound and no vibration in the 3rd party apps settings for its notifications.

What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"Transformative. Everything WearOS should be with fantastic customisation. Update March '22: After sideloading the app onto my watch after having to reset it, it no longer works at all. Very disappointing - from five stars to one. Please release the older version, even if you aren't supporting it, so that we can continue to use it."
Chris Parnell
"Paid for premium, latest update no longer works on my watch."
Eric Peterson
"Cool"
Rio Rior
"My ZenWatch 2 isn't compatible."
Karen Something
"Disappointed. Liker others had this on my fossil Carlyle gen 5 watch and know it says my watch is not compatible. Paid for premium version. You need to do something to fix this"
Craig Most
"This app worked fine until it stopped completely after a factory reset of my TicWatch Pro 3 GPS. Not sure what the deal is, but not looking forward to figuring out a workaround."
Justin Carlin
"As said by others.. Premium (paid) user who loved this app.. New update will not work on wear 2.5 In the app description, programmer says "Wear 2.0 users: You have to manually install the watch part of the app - this is a new Android Wear feature.".. I cannot install this app directly from phone. Emailed without response. At least put the old version back out to premium users who paid you... Even if you state you will no longer update the previous version. This WAS a great app.."
Aubrey Haase
"Doesn't work with ticwatch pro 3 Ultra. On the watch it says not compatible"
