Light Flow - LED Control
It's main features are:
- Controlling the notification LED for phones that have them (cycling colors through outstanding notifications)
- Sound control, including repeating sounds
- Vibration control, including custom vibration patterns and repeating vibrations
- Android wear vibration support
- Sleep times
- Lock screen based notifications (on phones that support live wallpapers on lock screens)
- Contact specific notifications for certain notification types
This program will allow you to control the notification color for
* SMS messages,
* MMS messages,
* New Gmail messages
* New e-mails
* Calendar reminders
* Missed calls
* Low battery
* Bluethooth
* Google Talk notifications / Hangouts
* Handcent
* No signal
* SMS Popup
* ChompSMS
* K9 mail
* Silent mode
You can also set repeating sounds or vibration patterns for each notification type.
It'll even push out notifications to your wearable deivces and pebble smart watch.
It works on non-rooted phones and also allows the colors to flash in succession, so if you have a new SMS and a missed call it can alternate between the two colors. You can also set which notification type has the highest priority and let it flash in just that one color.
Note that it will take over control of your notifications and you will therefore only get notifications for categories that the app allows.

It's ok until the android 9 updates on phones. The light notification for charging won't disappear after charging if you charged your phone while on battery saver mode. It will only disappear if you if you reset notifications on the app after turning off battery saver mode.
I demand a full refund for this i had purchased the full version of this a while back with the license and to my surprise i look back at my purchase history and the app is no longer there a license should be a buy once not twice policy this company is very devious in ways that they like to cheat people out of there pocket for funds and scam us for that i am giving this company a 1 star STAY AWAY AT ALL COST YOUVE BEEN WARNED !!!!!!!
Was good for a bit, now the charging battery notification will lock up and keep a notification active and light on. No way to fix it without deleting it and remaking. soooooo annoying
Just installed the latest version on my rooted Redmi 1S runnung Nougat.. Looks pretty good BUT i wonder why there are no notifications for Wi-Fi and cellular data. Am rating this a 3 for now.
Works but the colors are not accurate. The Red looks like orange and the white looks like pink.
Useful, probably a bit hassle to set all up to work properly, but fine on rooted nexus 6
Contact specific notifications have not worked for some time, despite uninstalling/reinstalling.
The led notification light is blinking even if there are no messages in my WhatsApp. Am using vivo v9 youth.
The LED keeps showing dim at first... Please fix!!
Bought pro version a while back. They took it off the market and are forcing a repurchase. Disgusting business practice
Pro version is back. This app is awesome. Totally recommended.
App does nothing literally
A YouTuber called "HowToMan" he was right bout dis app
Uh should download it
There is a moderate battery drain. This makes sense since it is constantly active. My OP5t has amazing battery life. So it's no big deal for me.
Works very well on LG G7 ! Have to watch an ad to add new app notification.
Worked great on Android 7 and continues to work great through Android 9(pixel xl). This is an app I can't live without and I'm shocked Google hasn't built it into the OS after all these years. Definitely worth buying the pro version or the license so the developer gets paid for their hard work. It's well earned.
This app is good but i didnt know how to use this app and also a problem with this app that is everytime i lock my phone my flash light turns on
Everything is fine but it does not work
Having to watch an ad just to add an application is a reason for an instant uninstallation.
I love the concept of this app and can see many benefits when using it. Unfortunately I use a screen reader as I am visually impaired and when doing so I am unable to find the button to add new notifications. I use talkback and this button is simply not detected by the screen reader. Hence I am unable to use the app for anything. Please could you consider accessibility urgently so that I can begin using this. Many thanks and looking forward to any possible update.
The app itself works well. Setup with Samsung S9+ with Android 8 is a total pain. There are a gazillion settings buried within Android that you must tweak to get this to work. Took me about 6 hours total of messing around. Since I have 2 phones, that's an average of 3 hours per phone. I wish I had a dozen phones to get my average time down. Not the developer's fault, Would be helpful if there was more documentation on these setup issues but that would mean that he would need one of every phone out there. Now that it is fully configured, I have different LED colors and vibration patterns for Gmail, SMS and Calendar. WooHoo!
I've been using this for years works great. Only reason for 4 stars is because for some reason it just stopped working. It was working fine showing my notifications now nothing. Not even the test is working. Not sure what the issue is but i would like to keep using this app if it can be fixed
I like it But the only problem I set the flash color to blue purple green whatever one color for each app I add and on my ZTE majesty pro plus and my Samsung j1 both all notifications and everything I have added with a color to each one They all just flash green for j1 and orange for zte I want my custom colors to flash so I can tell what's flashing But all I ever see is green in my j1 and orange in my zte My zte glows green when I charge it by default Not a thing to do with this app How do I get each color to flash It's peeing me off I can't see each individual light I set for each app flash Please fix it or help!!! Other than that It's good And a must have app for me
Useless. I installed it. Wanted to set a notification for whatsapp, a popup appeared that told me to buy the app or watch an ad. I chose to watch the ad, but then I got the message no ad was available and I could not continue. I uninstalled it.
Horribly buggy. The app has promise, but the bugs destroy all functionality. The UI would start duplicating buttons and menu items, the ui would go blank, buttons wouldn't do what they said, white text on bright green background that's impossible to read.. It goes on... If it was functional, it would be petty good. "If."
Download this to add notifications for other apps. Was given the option to watch an ad to make it work. Fail. Other apps required a purchase. Utterly useless. Very disappointed.
Can't add notification without watching an ad. Cant watch an ad because 'there are none available'. Therefore pointless and completely functionless and app
The vibration alerts on my pixel 2 were always so-so. However, I would often miss notifications when my phone was on vibrate. Light flow has solved that by giving me control over vibration length and pattern. This is an awesome app!
I actually bought this app twice. It worked in beginning and so when it stopped notifying me that updates were available even when everything was set correctly on my S8, I re-purchased it; and Reactle does not answer email.
