Dont forget the the list of announcements to come through is on the XT2 itself - not on the tread app.

I am wondering if the GPS has got to be moving ? Reason I think this might be the case - I have yet to get messages popping up when I try it at my desk. So before I went of my last long ride, I turned on all notifications and forgot about it. I had messages popping all of the time. First stop, I turned them all off except messages and emails.

Yes I know, I keep my iPhone in my pocket when riding and only use the XT2.

I have been moving, but I’ve yet to see any text messages or anything other than live traffic delays appear on the right of the XT2 screen.

So the pop ups are for other things, not just texts? Yes, I can see how that would be annoying. I don’t know what these pop ups actually look like as I’ve never seen any.

When I return from rides and check my phone, I’ve usually got lots of WhatsApp messages and text messages and some emails, none of which have been notified in any way on the XT2.

Ah, so emails too are supposed to pop up? With never having rcvd any of these notifications that’s something else I was unaware of. It’s good that you are able to select which pop ups you wish to allow.

Where did you control the pop ups permissions from? Is this setting on the XT2 device?

In Android you select them in the Tread App. With iphone is different, I think that you have a menu in the XT2 BT options to select notifications.

I use wasap (social) and calendar. If you have muted conversations and groups in WhatsApp, only the priority ones appear on the XT2. ;)

The user manual says from main screen select the 4 squares icon, scroll down to Smart Notifications to list all notifications.

When I do this it says Open Tread app on phone.
But it’s already open, running and connected to my XT2!

These sure are confusing and unnecessarily over complicated frustrating devices.
