email notice

[degarb]

I want to say email title of new emails in google primary tab. Not forum , update or social tab.

So far bumpkiss luck. Googling reaped no info other than tip to use k9. K9 and tasker, doesn't work . no trigger, no variable with sender yet. I even put k9 as owner app of notifications. also k9 is hopelessly crippled because it cannot do simple Gmail tabs. So in theory, even if I got this working, this would not be something I really would want because I am flooded with promotions updates social, and only interested in the primary tab.

Hi degarb,

The Gmail app allows you to change which Labels (tabs - Social, Primary, Updates, etc) generate notifications. You could perhaps disable notifications for all of those except primary (this is how I have it configured - I figure that the Primary tab is the only one that could require my immediate attention).

You could then setup Tasker to speak all Gmail notifications.

To change the notification settings in the Gmail app:
• Browse to the Label you want to change
• Tap (menu) > Label Settings
• Uncheck Label notifications
• Repeat for the other labels you don't want to know about.

Hope that helps
