I am using the widget for the lock screen. Notifications are truncated vertically so I don't get to see much unless I expand the widget. This may be a limitation of the lock screen. Some sms messages show up while others do not. I would like to be able to touch the notification and have it jump right into the app to view it(hangouts or calendar). I imagine that this will probably get some updates in the future that address the issues. Nexus 5.
Very happy with this app, since it gives me lock screen notifications on my nexus 5 running cm11! thanks developer. EDIT: Reduced from 5 to 4 stars because allowing this app to access your notifications breaks the "OK Google" hotword detection!
Its stupid it won't even show notifications don't waste your time
It was advertised as being able to preview the body of emails in gmail. But all I get is the Sender and subject.
When I got the app I did everything then when I come see if it works and it don't.I don't know is it's my phone but the app sucked
Sadly, the widget for this app was not available to my HTC A9191 so the only way to use it was by setting it as my wallpaper. This was a step too far and I uninstalled it.
Good app, but can you pls add an option for AM/PM time. I will give 5 stars then.
Gives me the option to use own photo for wallpapers but when selected screens are just black.
I like that I can use the stock lock with this. I wish it worked with Maildroid and other apps, but it works just as you say, although not all the time. Keep working on it. NiLS has this mastered.
I have no idea how to set this app up. All it does up on is my home screen. I can not figure out how to set it as my lockscreen! Please help me. The directions give me be help!
This is a great app. Does exactly what I want. Only problem is that it doesn't always show me my texts or emails. Works about three quarters of the time. Fix that and I'd give it a 5. Nonetheless, very pleased.
Ita good.. but i have a problem.. i selected different backgrounds for home and lockscreen.. but they are still same..plz fix this..
I LOVE the idea of this app and it works pretty well, but when I use it to set the wallpaper, the wallpaper is just black. I've tried doing both home screen and lock screen or just one. I've tried different wallpapers, uninstalling, and restarting my phone. Any ideas?
Shows notifications on the lockscreen, just how I want, and with the latest version you can turn off double clicking the message to reply, which bypassed the security. Thanks for a great app, beer sent!
I like the idea of being able to see my texts on the lock screen and I want my screen to turn on with the notifications. Though the directions to set it up is difficult to understand. I have a Samsung Galaxy s2 Revolt and any help to set it up would be appreciated.
Only sms shows up even afrer rebooting and leaving it run for a day. I use touchdown, nma, gmail, etc. none of which show up.
Absolutely nothing happened. No setting could be changed to make it work
Changing the wallpaper settings is way too complicated if you want home screen and lock screen to be the same.
False . you should take this crap down
The lock screen often displays the wrong time, as if it isn't updating often enough.
2 complicated. MAke it.easier to set up. Then i.will give more stars and I give 5 stars if.it.works.properly
Unfortunately i am not able to see whats app and facebook notification while putting accessibility on...!
How do you enable the plus screen on the Samsung Galaxy S5. Without it I can't use this app
When u download it you can't scroll up down or side to side. Also u can't pull down the notification.
Do not supports on lower android versions. :(
When i have missed call. Wont show other notifications. Disappointed.
It is awful I can't use it!!
This is not a useless app.. Galaxy phones are crap for notifications and the s5 is worse without lockscreen widgets (had to get widget locker to use this app). This does just what i need, thankfully. I have also noticed though that my emails are not displaying it's body in the notifications. Otherwise, great app.
