Feature Request: A selection of different vibration patterns for bg high+low alarms

[JoernL]

For example Sony smartphones have a strong vibration motor built-in. When it vibrates on low or high
bg alert this is really loud, because xDrip only has one pattern for this - 3 times long! It would be nice
to set another pattern for this: 3 times short or 1 time long ...

I would also like to see possibility to set different vibration patterns for high and low alerts to distinguish which alert is alarming

Any updates on this?

[JoernL]

I have manually changed the pattern for my needs. You can find it in:

xDrip/app/src/main/java/com/eveningoutpost/dexdrip/UtilityModels/Notifications.java

Line 63 in e4f7fa3

public static final long[] vibratePattern = {0, 1000, 300, 1000, 300, 1000};

1000 = vibration duration and 300 = break duration.

@JoernL Unless I am misunderstanding you, you have created your own version. Well done.
You can open a pull request.
If I have misunderstood, please let me know.

@JoernL You are very welcome to create a pull request with your changes and it would be awesome if you could add a preference setting for this feature.

It would be also very nice to have different vibration patterns for smartwatches (e.g. on the Galaxy watch 4 the vibration is very weak by default).

May I add vibration patterns for the "forecasted low" alert? This is the most useful of all alerts to me.

Sure, open a new pr for this.

Could potentially use some clean up, but added this PR 😄
