When I first got the Droid Maxx I kind of struggled to get use to not having an LED notification which was easy to spot across the room. I would sometimes miss an email l or text because I had the phone set down and left the room not hearing the notification, was busy, or just forgot to look. I loved the active notification but still wished there was an LED as well. I came across the vibration notifier app a couple months ago and have have found it real handy for ensuring that notifications are not missed for too long. It allows you to set vibration or sound (or both) reminders for any app which creates a notification. It has a lot of options and works real well.
