I used gadgetbridge initially but ended up switching to "Notify for Me", which is a lot more hseful. It's written by an individual in Italy but is still closed source and phones home, so I use NetGuard and LineageOS to block all network traffic to the app. It still works fine.

I don't use most functionality, but steps, sleep time, heart rate, and notifications/alarms have all been useful to me.

Is this the app you are referring to? If not, can you provide a link please? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kila.addno...
No, sorry, I typed it incorrectly and it's too late to edit. It's this:

Thanks for the tip, I just installed it (revoked network permissions + blocked in TrackerControl) and I will check how it works. Lots more options than Gadgetbridge it seems, which is nice.
