whatsap gets hectic so would never enable it. I told my wife, in an emergency SMS me, then I will get the notification pop up, that along with debit orders coming off :(

My wife has been instructed to do the exact same thing. SMS and phone calls show up on my screen. Sometimes I get home from a weekend morning ride and someone in the suburb has lost their cat and the suburbs info chat has a million(obviously exaggerating) messages about a missing cat that then comes home 10 minutes after the initial million messages and then another million messages and pictures about the kitty that is safely home.

I see it hasnt filtered through to the baby 130, doubt it will. But then I'm ok with that.

I actually would like that. I just got an extremely sweet deal on a Edge 130 from a fellow hubber, and so far I am very satisfied with it. I am not very active on WhatsApp, and not a member of any groups. I would not mind getting the odd and infrequent notification on my Garmin.

Hopefully there is a setting for “urgent” whatsapps only as I dont want to receive messages from whatsapp groups while riding, if its urgent call me!

Not to my knowledge, how would WhatsApp, or GCM for that matter, know that a message was urgent I wonder?

It won't. But if you can choose from which numbers you receive notifications or are able to exclude certain numbers/groups it would go a long way.

 

Doubt that it would have such functionality though, at least initially.

just mute the annoying groups.

My neighborhood group is on permanent mute as they're a bunch of paranoid racial profilers
