Notifications & Haptics

Feedback matters because Gestura often works while your attention is somewhere else. Good notification settings help you know when the app is listening, waiting, finished, or needs approval.

Core feedback channels

• Sound cues: useful for start, stop, success, and error moments.
• Desktop notifications: useful when Gestura is running in the background.
• Haptic feedback: useful when you use Haptic Harmony or want silent confirmation.

Settings that change the feel of the app

• sound_enabled for audible cues
• haptic_enabled and intensity controls for tactile feedback
• auto_listen_after_feedback when you want a more conversational follow-up loop

Practical recommendations

• Use sounds if you work heads-down and need quick state changes.
• Use haptics in shared spaces or when you want silent confidence checks.
• Turn on automatic re-listening only if it makes your workflow smoother rather than noisier.

When feedback needs troubleshooting

If notifications feel inconsistent, verify device output settings, ring connectivity, and the related config values before assuming the workflow engine is failing.
