We have just released a new version that make it the ultimate tools

for streamlining your notifications, especially in anticipation of the

Apple Watch release.

Limit notification noise: Filter and actions

The idea behind that version is the following: You add you sources for

notifications and make sure for example they are all silent. You then

create filters, which are advanced way to gather groups of

notifications. You have many criteria available to group your

notifications: Source type, sources selection, keyword, priority. You

should be able to have a very good tool to gather notifications. Once

you have your filters created, you can read your content in Boxcar and

create actions on filters to be notified only on your really important

notifications. This makes Boxcar for iOS a very helpful tool to cut

the notification noise and make getting your notification on your

Apple Watch truly useful.

Watch support

This powerful filter tool was developed to enhance the usability of

the app in conjunction with Apple Watch. The Apple Watch is a great

way to get your important notification on your wrist … As long as it

is only the notifications that matter to you. It is possible to

configure right with Boxcar 1.4.

Moreover, that new Boxcar version come packaged with a new Boxcar

Watch application that allows you to quickly catch up on your news

when you have a couple of minutes.

Here is a short screencast on what it feels like: Boxcar 1.4 Watch App
