Something like Glance

[Zolotoy]

I am looking for an app that would do what Nokia Glance does - showing notifications on a phone when it's off. Any idea?

Thanks

I have installed acDisplay. Dont see nothing when the screen is off. What am I missing?

That's good because you're not supposed to see nothing!

Do you have more technical ideas?

Good thread. One of my favorite features of my Lumia was Nokia Glance which displays emails/messages, etc. all the time on your lockscreen with a nominal power draw but you can always "glance" at the phone to see what you've missed without touching it at all. AMOLED screens are perfect for this since only the lighted parts draw power.

Neither of these apps quite do that (but thanks so much for the recommendations!) - Dynamic Notifications is a Motorola lock screen replica which is not terrible but still not as terrific as Glance. You have to touch it to pull up a second screen to actually see the notification.

Somebody really needs to build a Glance replica on Android. That would be stellar!!!!

What about noLED? It looks like you can accomplish what you want with it. https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...apps/details?id=com.led.notify&token=JkjB4shN

Glance Screen was something I really missed coming from a Lumia device.

I ended up using both acdisplay and clock plus. I had to enable the daydream function in android and set it to the clock plus app. This gives me a glance screen while the device is charging. Acdisplay seems to take care of the rest.
