Digits
I am not getting notification that I have a new text..how do I turn that on ? Calls come through fine
It sounds like you have everything set up correctly to get those message notifications loud and clear. There are a few things that you can toggle to try and kick the notifications to work properly.
- Unassign and reassign the line
- turn off notifications in the app and settings and then turn them back on.
- Try turning on Cellular-mode only and test. Then turn it off again.
- If all else fails, uninstall the app and reinstall it. That usually irons out all the kinks to make it work better.
Yeah, I just tried the latest rev of the PC Digits app, and the web-app, once more. The PC app started to sign in, got 3 message threads with 1-2 messages in each thread, and the displayed a connection failure: "We are having trouble with connectivity, some system notifications may not be available"
The web-app has been signing in for >10 minutes now, across three different browser attempts (Edge, Chrome, Firefox), nada, it just fails out, eventually.
I don't understand why T-Mobile doesn't seem to apply many dev/test/PM resources to this, but it sure looks like they do not, from my s/w and h/w design background. I also don't understand why anyone would be motivated to use this.
@BongoBob You could simply use the Google Messages app for that 2nd line and use messages.google.com on other interfaces (PC, tablet, whatever), and not hassle with this mess, but that’s a personal decision I suppose.
I remain disappointed in what I thought would evolve into a nifty-usable interface ,some years ago now. Given that timespan, I wouldn't hold my breath here...
