SUMMARY

This is a feature request for a minor but usability feature.

KDEConnect now already has the ability to send and receive notifications. But after turning on, it receives regardless of the screen status. Therefore, if I send notification from one Android device to another, both devices will receive the notification.

It would be ideal to see notification only on the device that I'm currently watching -- screen on. Therefore, adding an option to only show notifications when screen is on would be really useful.

A use case would be before sleeping and both devices have do-not-disturb turned on, but I'm using one of them; while during the day, that device is not usually used so there is no point to show notifications on it.

Surely there may be a few overlapping when both are screen on; but this would already be a lot better than having both all the time.

Hopefully this is also ported to desktop. Though to be fair, I don't currently have a use case.
