Viewing Notifications
While using the Gear VR, you can view general notifications, such
as events, messages, and alarms when they display as a pop-up
notification on the screen.
You can turn on the pop-up messages in the Universal menu.
To see more notification details, review them on the mobile device
after you separate it from the Gear VR.
Note: The Gear VR blocks pop-up messages for notifications when
the Do Not Disturb feature is activated.
If the Notifications feature is turned off, new notifications and
incoming calls are ignored.
