Here are my suggestions after using the app for a few days. Firstly, awesome app. It however lacks some necessary configurability which, I recognize is not needed for all users but from the posts I would say applies to many.

First, swipe to home screen and swipe to remove notification needs to be more sensitive. I have a nexus 5 which is recognized to be the current google reference device. IMO the swipe sensitivity is not high enough requiring far too much effort. Again, personal preference comes into play so sensitivity should be configurable.

Second, I carry my N5 in a side pouch. The proximity sensor is not quite sensitive enough to wake my device when I remove from the side pouch unless I intentionally rub against the side of my body after pulling from the pouch. Again the proximity sensitivity need to be configurable to handle this common use case.

I'm not sure with android phone if it's possible to adjust the sensitivities mentioned here on a per app basis but if it is possible I suspect that it would make the app far more useful for many users. Making it configurable would have minimal impact on those that are happy with the current sensitivity levels.

Moto X user here. Should I just ditch Motorola's Active Display for ACDisplay? Seems better then Active Display.
[Android Apps and Games] activeservo:
Regarding dismissing the notifications I found there are a few apps that like to have a notification which is irritating. If your rooted, NotificationsOff is free and is a great appfor permanently disabling notifications for apps. Just be careful not to disable notifications for all apps as I couldn't answer the phone or know when someone tested me. I thought all my friends had abandoned me for 3 days lol.
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
Are you asking us which *you* prefer? I'd think you'd be the better judge for this, honestly. :p

... and if all else fails, toss a coin.
[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
I don't own a moto x but is it a coin toss? Will ac display be as battery efficient as the native app on this device?
[Android Apps and Games] FdeKlerk:
Sorry OP.

Hi.

I have to apologize to the op for wanting to share a better version of the app.

So sorry OP or Dev for my common mistake.
[Android Apps and Games] omal:
first of all great app..:D

feels like the lock sceen swipe sensitivity should be increased a little more.. or allow users to configure it.:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
Can the op please comment as to whether the sensitivity adjustment is possible but not desirable or both? Nice to know his stand on this.
[Android Apps and Games] jpen:
Besides the weather, camera and music requests that others and myself have mentioned, I have a few other possible requests.

1. Show the alarm if set near clock.

2. Not sure if this is possible or even smart, but maybe have an option to have the screen stay on but at a very dim setting. I have my phone right next to me at my desk at work, and I am always turning it on to see time, check for messages or notifications or just liking to touch my phone. Would be cool to not have to touch it and have it always on so I can just look over. I know it may be a battery issue, but maybe having an all black background and dim the time and notifications could help with that.

Thanks again. By far the best lockscreen display.
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
1. What do you mean by "set near clock"?

2. Settings > more > timeout settings > no timeout

[Android Apps and Games] jpen:
1. Sorry, horrible wording by me! If an alarm is set, have it shown near the clock or under the clock maybe next to the date.

2. Totally missed that. Thanks!

Again.. this is just me nitpicking and not crucial things.
[Android Apps and Games] 2k4ever:
thanks, but thats not what I'm looking for

its not about the notifications - I use AcDisplay as lockscreen replacement even without notifications

but for some apps, i like to automatically disable the lockscreen via Tasker

AcDisplay already uses intents through its widget:

android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_ENABLED

android.appwidget.action.APPWIDGET_DISABLED

unfortunately, I don't seem to be able to send the intent through an other app

would be great if that could be implemented

thanks!

Thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] LifeAsADroid:
Amazing app. A few questions on how to do certain things (or suggestions for additions in future versions perhaps):

- Is there a way to set the app to "pulse" if a notification has come in and not viewed or cleared?

- Is there a way to set the app to light up if the phone is picked up from a resting position? Similar to pulling out of pocket or picking up from being face down, but using general motion as a trigger instead of the proximity trigger?

Either of the above would help a lot. Many times I have my phone on my desk face up and miss notifications since phone is silenced at work, but would be nice to see the notifications pulsing on and off instead of having to set my phone face down and keep picking it up to check for notifications.

Thanks again for a great app!
[Android Apps and Games] Jay Rock:
I am loving this app so far. It doesn't play so nicely with Touchwiz and Android 4.3 because when I got a notification I would have to tap once on the screen just to get the app to respond and then I could interact with the notifications (the status bar would also show up), but with CM11 and Android 4.4 it works just as it should. The 4.3 problem is most likely with Touchwiz, since it's the only pre-4.4 skin that would allow you to pull down the notifications from a full screen application. Nice job with this.
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
Both are being actively suggested but are not yet implemented. You can set it as a lockscreen so that you can manually check though.

Do some apps not play well with this? The app I have on my phone that gives me the most notifications is TheScore, but notifications from that app don't appear in AcDisplay. I certainly don't have it on the blacklist, so I'm wondering what the issue could be. I was using a similar app for notifications that did show them from TheScore, but I like this app better overall. Any help would be appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] Pkt_Lnt:
I used TheScore for some time. Had trouble with notifications, good email support, but they use some different format for alerts than standard Android method it seems. Something in my setup or rural weak signal location caused issues, especially at home on wifi. So I changed apps. You might contact them, as I have not used it in months.

I use Calengoo calendar and same thing, AcDisplay does not pick up alerts, but I have found no other calendar that works better for me.
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
Do either of these use permanent notifications? Because AcDisplay doesn't show those.

[Android Apps and Games] noirstronaut:
I joined this forums solely to get an answer to this question: I use a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and with AcDisplay, I can seemingly only use it in landscape mode from one orientation. Locking the screen in one orientation does nothing (and in turn sticks it at the AcDisplay angle upon unlocking) and doesn't seem to have any option for rotating the screen appropriately. Is there any remedy for this or am I simply a lost cause?

On top of that, should the AcDisplay widget do more than turn the app on and off? It's simply a 1x1 button, but nothing more. I thought if the widget had worked, I could simply replace my clock with it and be on my way, but, ya know, nope.
[Android Apps and Games] meatboy371:
If you have xposed framework, just use AppSettings module to force auto-rotation for AcDisplay.

[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
AcDisplay supports only one orientation for now.

The widget is a toggle for AcDisplay. It doesn't have any of the options of the app.

[Android Apps and Games] kash55:
Is there a way or a feature coming to show notification details without having to touch the icon.

ie. in Dynamic Notification you can set an option so that when you get a msg the phone awakens shows the notification with 1 or 2 lines of what the notification says without having to touch the icon for more details.
[Android Apps and Games] LifeAsADroid:
+1 to this. I used App Settings and used the force auto-rotation - works like a charm from all four directions. The only thing it won't do is show AcDisplay on the backside of the phone 8) lol
[Android Apps and Games] noirstronaut:
Just did this as well; works wonderfully. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] cigator:
I like this app, but am I missing something. The active display is hit or miss for me. Also, when I touch the icon, the message shows for a split second, even though I keep holding my finger on the icon.
[Android Apps and Games] MattDoza:
I struggle dismissing with each notification. Swiping is far too inconsistent. And unlocking feels like a longer swipe than it needs to be. Previously you could hold and swipe to the right to dismiss and I wish that would return. I can't say I have a suggestion for unlocking.
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
To dismiss, just swipe from the icon left or right. Speed is important, the distance isn't. Really, don't focus on how far you swipe it - just do it quickly and let go, as if you're actually swiping an object away.

The same goes for unlocking. Speed is more important than the distance.
[Android Apps and Games] MattDoza:
Wow. You're totally right. That's been my problem all along.
[Android Apps and Games] ETW11:
I think it's just a problem with AcDisplay because I've used five different active display apps and every one of them has been able to display notifications from TheScore except AcDisplay. It seems every active display app is missing something. I wish I could take the best from each one and combine them into one app, but it appears that's not going to happen. As it stands, I think I'm going to have to go with Dynamic Notifications, though I can't get the proximity sensor to work with it.
[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
You are correct about speed but no one should have to exert that much effort to get a speedy swipe. Doing it single-handed is even more difficult. All I can say is there is no other app that I personally use that requires nearly as much effort to perform the gesture. Even after using the app for weeks now I still have to sometimes repeat the gesture several times to get it to work, especially the swipe to dismiss.
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
No effort involved, you don't have to be pressing hard, you don't have to move your finger for more than a centimeter. You just flick it quickly. I always do it single handedly and I don't have any superpowers that I know of. :p
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
There is the one, but I don't think that'll help in this case.

Is there a way to get this working properly with Paranoid Android? Right now it reboots the phone randomly. AcDisplay is great so I would love to be able to use it on this ROM.

Why does it cause the phone to reboot? I've got Peek disabled, maybe I need to disable a few other things?
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
If an app is causing the system to reboot, it's a ROM problem. The fault isn't with AcDisplay.

Note: if you're using the Xposed module, it is possible (although very unlikely since no one has reported it.) In that case, post a logcat.
[Android Apps and Games] RED_:
I agree it's most likely the ROM. When I installed the app it did tell me that this app doesn't play nice with Paranoid Android so thought I'd ask here too. Yeah I guess I'll post a logcat up when I get a chance. I'll probably have to run it all day to catch a crash. I doubt PA are in a rush to fix any such issue since they have Peek but maybe that's just my view. I should probably report it as a bug.
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
It has been reported and I believe quite recently even fixed with the release of the peek app.

[Android Apps and Games] snnrkn:
First of all thanks for this great app. I have two issues.

1. It takes two touch to interact with notifications. First touch on the notification icon brings statusbar to the screen but notification doesn't respond. Then second touch is when i can do whatever i want with notification. It should take one touch.

2. As stated by others, notification dismiss is very difficult. I have to swipe real hard to accomplish it.

[Android Apps and Games] Dhiraj:
Proximity sensor does not work properly as expected. Dynamic notification is perfect in this field.
[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
Absolutely agree. It is even more true for the swipe sensitivity.
[Android Apps and Games] LifeAsADroid:
Proximity sensor and swyping to remove notifications from the AcDisplay screen work perfectly on 4.4.2 Motorola Droid RAZR Maxx HD.

Only thing I would like to see would be a breathing / pulsing notification screen when new notifications come in and haven't been acknowledged (either swype to clear the notification or swype off the AcDisplay screen itself).
[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
They don't work so well on my Nexus 5. I don't think it is my technique because I have no issues at all on dynamic notifications with swipe or proximity. Must be how your device is tuned.
[Android Apps and Games] Dhiraj:
I am running DN on my Moto G, 4.4.2 .It is almost perfect in all respect and more mature than acDisplay, even it uses less battery compare to AcDisplay. Only drawback is that it has been build upon 4.2 framework, as a result most of the beautiful features of 4.4 are compensated.
[Android Apps and Games] LifeAsADroid:
Could be a hardware / software compatibility issue, if ALL other Nexus 5's are reporting the same issues.

Could also be a "third party app" affecting the compatibility of AcDisplay and your Nexus - I've had this happen with apps affecting the performance of other apps based on settings within the third party app.

Or could be that your RAM or processor performance is nearing its max (which would be hard to believe unless you are running a TON of apps all at once all the time!)

Or could even be technique in general. Not that you're "doing it wrong", but I might have a harder touch and swype throw than you (my phone likes it rough, lol).

I've used Dynamic Notifications prior to AcDisplay. The one thing I like better about Dynamic Notifications is the BREATHING / PULSING FEATURE that quite a few people are hoping is eventually implemented here in AcDisplay. Two things I didn't like about Dynamic Notifications:

- The inability of the app to rotate correctly to landscape mode (while the phone is docked in my car for instance). Even using forced rotation the app just rotates and the bottom is cut off, not that it readjusts itself to fit horizontally instead of vertically (AcDisplay rotates beautifully).

- Dynamic Notifications also kept force closing on me, I even used the app Keep Running to attempt to re-launch the app when it shut down. That didn't work too well either. AcDisplay has no trouble staying active, perhaps because of the Xposed module layout? Unsure, just stays active all the time, never force closed.

I gotta give the layout to AcDisplay as well, It's more asthetically appealing to me than Dynamic Notifications.

To each their own... just someone please implement the breathing / pulsing notification feature on AcDisplay 8)
[Android Apps and Games] GermainZ:
It's on the todo list… but patches are welcome :highfive:
[Android Apps and Games] LifeAsADroid:
OMG you just gave me something to look forward to. Once that function is added - AcDisplay for the ultimate win!

No rush of course, I understand we're all busy, and I just appreciate being able to reap the benefits of others' hard work. Just good to know it's already on the list and not an idea tossed aside 8)

Hey! I just started using this and I must say it's quite amazing! :good::good::good:

I have a case covering the proximity sensor of the phone. The phone vibrates on notification but when I open the cover there is no acdisplay, it is somehow stopped from appearing thinking it is in my pocket?

Is there any way to disable this? (and no active mode is not what I'm looking for)
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
Not really, the next version should disable that. But in the meantime you could use the lockscreen function to view AcDisplay anyways.

[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
I have my phone setup to be lockscreen only and no wake on notification. I use the proximity sensor to wake when removing from pocket.

I thought I was having issues with the sensor because it wouldn't reliably wake from pocket. What I noticed is that when you get a notification and you aren't using notification wake then you must wait about 5 seconds before pulling from pocket for the proximity sensor to work. Anyone else notice that?
[Android Apps and Games] meatboy371:
Yep. That's the way active mode works, so the screen won't wake inside your pocket.

Tapatalked from my N4
[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
Agreed that's a good thing, but why after you've removed from your pocket doesn't it wake? Seems like it ought to wake regardless if prox sensor indicates it's no longer in your pocket? Having to wait is a bit awkward.

About Textra:

I had the same reoccurring notification problem, which happened with only one specific contact, very frustrating. I presumed it was a Textra bug and not an AcDisplay one, and changed my messaging app. So, is it really Textra's fault?
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
Yes, this is Textra devs doing weird **** with the notifications. There is nothing AcDisplay does for specific apps (besides ignoring them if you blacklist them) so if an app misbehaves it's a problem in that app not in AcDisplay.
