Just FYI* in reference to the iPhone imessage notifications, if VW is your carrier, believe it or not, their sms message app is perfect, for a lot of reasons, but mainly for the Pebble watch notifications. As it lists the name of original sender only and the beginning of the message. Of course you can set this to preferrence also. Which I’m actually surprised you’re not able to do with imessage.
Thanks for the tip! I looked at AT&T doesn’t offer anything sweet like that and I don’t see the option in iMessages preferences. Nice watch band btw. :)
