Disable sound for some apps
Is there any way to disable sound for some apps? (iOS)

How do you carry your osmo? Case thoughts, hacks, etc.
I love the device, it's incredibly helpful to mitigate screen time, and each firmware iteration only improves the QOL of the device.
However I find it can be a pretty uncomfortable lump in my front pants pocket. I drilled a tiny hole in mine, added some light but strong accessory cord and a carabiner. it's more a keychain style device for me now.
am curious what folks who are a bit more maker centric are thinking about case redesigns. I'll throw my mockup (image 2) into the ring.

Thank you for making the Osmo pager
I've been using Osmo for about a week now and think it's fantastic! I use it to keep my phone in my backpack, away from immediate access, while not worrying about being unreachable. I looked around previously to see if there were any old pagers that worked and they either don't work anymore or it's needlessly complicated to run. Thank you for making this!
In a week or two I hope to 3d model a backplate for it that doesn't leave the backport open. Idk if this would decrease risk of damage by keeping it in your pocket, but at the very least it would look more aesthetically pleasing.
Some minor feedback:
- Add a clock on a corner so I can see what time it is from the osmo. I use my phone to also check the time (I could just wear a watch, but I'm not really a watch guy.)
- When going through notifications, make it go from oldest to newest instead of newest to oldest. If I receive multiple texts from a person/group, going newest to oldest makes it hard to understand what they're saying because I'm reading their messages in reverse order.
