Pixel Watch minor change needed
This works great on the Pixel watch except for one bit. You're not currently able to modify the quick settings arrangement. So the middle first row is the flashlight. This means you're not able to trigger the bedtime mode which is first icon in the third row down.
Yeah I noticed this as well, not really sure what a good fix for it would be though but I guess we'll see, as this was long designed before the watch came out. Maybe as a setting in the watch app, or a seperate APK?
I hope the dev can add an option to enable bedtime mode on the pixel watch. I can't believe it doesn't already sync with the phone.
Not sure if my Pixel Watch is different, but the middle first row (the one this app triggers) is the DND quick settings toggle.

There's no problem triggering DND. It doesn't matter where that is in the quick settings because the developer was able to program that trigger in. The problem is triggering Bedtime Mode which is a different setting. Bedtime Mode needs to be in a specific position because the app uses a sequence of actions to trigger that button. DND is just above the bottom gear and Bedtime Mode is just to the left of it. Neither are in the top row.
Correct, I was only mentioning where my DND quick settings toggle was because it sounded like your flashlight toggle was getting triggered instead of Bedtime mode, however, my DND toggle is getting triggered instead of Bedtime mode.
So yours doesn't look like this? The top row and most of the second row are missing in the image but you can see the second to bottom row is Bedtime and DND.
Oh yes, mine does look like that. When I attempt to use the Bedtime mode setting in this app it triggers DND.
So the middle first row is the flashlight.
Does this app by default trigger flashlight or DND for you? I assumed you meant it trigged flashlight for you which made me think your QS toggles were in a different order or something.

It will do both, sometimes. Turning on bedtime mode on my phone will trigger DND mode on my watch, but only sometimes it will also trigger the flashlight.
First THANK YOU @rhaeus for this app. It's already made my life MUCH better. Many thanks.
That said, I'm having the same issue.
One possible short-term work around: have an option in the app to set the row/column of the bedtime mode quick-setting button. So for example, Pixel users, it could be set to 4-1, but for Samsung watch users it could be set to 1-2.
Hey @jaymzh @Dave247 @solo2424 ,
I have made changes in the fork of this app to use WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission rather than accessibility. As I don't have any pixel watch to test on, can you please try my fork of this app to see if that works for you https://github.com/DreadedLama/dnd-sync
EDIT: Typo fix

Thanks very much for mention and your work on it, I had completely forgotten about this little app
At first I thought something wasn't working, but it turned out I just had to reinstall the mobile apk as it incorrectly got the DND permission status. On Android 14, it requires having to grant the app restricted access permission before you can then enable Device and app notifications, which I realise now someone else already mentioned in #7
Bedtime mode still doesn't seem to get properly set on the synced device but that is a separate issue which I'll create a new issue for on your forked repo. (https://github.com/DreadedLama/dnd-sync/issues/1) Overall though the sync feature looks to work a lot better, and also has the added benefit of being future proof due to Google trying to push people away from using accessibility mode.

Yes, you'll have to grant it restricted access and only then you'll be able to give the mobile app DND access. I have mentioned this in the readme file too off my fork.
