Description

The current "Find my Watch" functionality utilizes the call notification functionality. I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to separate this functionality into a separate watchapp alongside "Find my Phone" feature (https://github.com/JF002/InfiniTime/issues/343).

The current implementation has the downsides that:

  • The UI doesn't necessarily represent the use
  • Timeouts (e.g. screen turning off) are not optimal for the functionality
  • Vibration pattern or length is too short for locating the watch

Research direction

Start by reviewing the current "Find my Watch" functionality and how it uses call notifications, then compare the intended relationship with the linked "Find my Phone" feature. Done means a separate watchapp with UI, timeout behavior, and vibration suited to locating the watch.
