Persistent/Repeated Notifications without AOD

Hi,

I have two Android phones, both running Android 16 (Samsung zFold7 and a zflip 6, both running OneUI 8.5), one for work and the other is a personal device.

I'd like a way to know that there are pending notifications that need my attention in a way that doesn't rely on AOD or Samsung's half-baked repeat notifications settings. Something ala the old Blackberry LED notification.

AOD doesn't work for me as my fold is often face down at work, and I'm just worried about burning in pixels with the display. A smart watch could work as a separate visual queue, but i would need two as I'm not aware of any way to link notifications across two devices.

Enable DND (or at least silent phone) when Outlook meeting starts.

I've got a Fold7 that I use for work, and our office is fully in the M365 ecosystem. I just want my phone to silence itself while I'm in a meeting, so that it doesn't ring or beep or make any noises while I'm there, so that I'm not the source of annoyance.

I don't see any way to trigger it via mode or routines, and I'm hoping I'm wrong, that such a simple and obvious solution is feasible.

Looking for a LiP-4WM Battery

So, I recently took the plunge and got my hands on a RH1 (Thanks MDCon!) and I thought it was going to use a normal gumstick-type battery. However, it looks like it uses the LiP-4WM. I found some on Amazon but not sure if these are worth it, or if there is a more reliable source in Canada that is available? Gerry's are nearly twice as expensive, including the shipping the charge.

Would this battery charge within the unit, or would I need an external battery charger as well?
