Abstract: A notification system includes a specially-configured communications device, such as a smartphone, and a notification accessory that is linkable, e.g., via Bluetooth, to the communications device. The notification system allows a user to selectively, according to user preference, reproduce at the wearable accessory customized notifications corresponding to notifications that would otherwise occur at the communications device. The communications device includes software that allows a user to control whether and how notifications will be provided at the wearable accessory. Notifications may be made using vibratory and/or light signals, and the light signals may be provided in user-customizable colors and/or patterns. The notification accessory includes a functional module including circuitry enabling the notification accessory's functionality, and an outer housing enclosing the functional module. Various outer housings may be designed to be aesthetically appealing, e.g.
