I will look into that maybe later. Right now my cause is not to copy an already well established app but to bring some new functionallity that is missing from out there. But I am not saying that a lackscreen layout is out of my plans. Thanks

Great suggestions. I will try to keep this very easy to use interface but to add some more parameters. I am working on it. Thanks

Thank you a lot. You will be able to add any app you want at the upcomming release.

Cheers guys... That's why I love XDA community. Keep it up :highfive:

EDIT: 1200 downloads in a day...:eek:

Thank you all for trying it :o

Icons

Really an interesting app :good: so, I tried to make an icon...I liked your idea of vibrant V, so i adopted it, adding a little circle counter, with a number inside, that's not casual, but indicates the number of the version...two variants, red and blue, here they are ;)

obviously both resizable, if you want, ask me ;)
[Android Apps and Games] morfances:
just installed on GNEX (maguro) but I see very few apps that associate notifications
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
The app currently supports only a predefined list of applications. If you don't have them installed they won't show up in the list. At the next version you will be able to add any app you want from your installed applications.

Any news?
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
I am preparing the next version but I got sick yesterday, so I cannot be too productive. Next version will have:

1. Ability to add any installed application to the support list

2. More customization abilities, regarding the settings that are already implemented

3. Other things that I might come up with.

Cheers

I definitely think this looks great. I think a sort of quiet hours would be good for the app. For example I could set it to not poll the sensors at night when I'm sleeping since I obviously would not be picking up the phone.
[Android Apps and Games] hatdrc:
Something else that would be nice is to have it use the proximity sensor so it doesn't activate till you pull it out of your pocket
[Android Apps and Games] fair06:
I installed this on my Droid Maxx after I stumbled across it and cannot believe I have lived without this feature. I use Active Display but miss notifications from time to time and this already saved me. I can't wait for some of these improvements to be implemented. Keep up the awesome work! So far it has been working great!
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
New version available at the first post!

v0.3.0

- option to add any installed app to the supported list (+)

- long press an app to remove it from the list

- global settings button when you open the navigation drawer (top right)

- new options: Sleep Time, Vibration duration, Still time threshold, Sleep duration after movement, select how many times you want to be notified.

- Testing new logo. Tell me what you think (haven't decided yet)

Let there be bugs... I am waiting :victory::highfive:

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] gordonpn:
I haven't tried the new version yet, but I just got an idea. What if all apps were activated by default and the user had the option to blacklist specific apps they didn't want to be notified for?
[Android Apps and Games] guy4jesuschrist:
The improvements are looking great...the only thing that's keeping me from using it, is that it needs to make use of the proximity sensor, so that it doesn't activate until removed from a pocket, as [MENTION=4499136]hatdrc[/MENTION] suggested. This will cut down on battery drain and prevent the annoyance of the device constantly vibrating while detecting walking movement.
[Android Apps and Games] Germano.Mosconi:
I just installed the new version (0.3.0) and now I can't open the navigation drawer anymore. Anyway, thank you for this beatiful app :)

Same thing to me, no options at all except the applications add list.... Θεσσαλονικιε μου συγχαρητήρια παντως ειμαι περηφανος!!
[Android Apps and Games] gordonpn:
Try sliding it out instead of tapping the top left. On my end, it works that way.
[Android Apps and Games] antoniozark:
Yes you are right it works that way....thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Germano.Mosconi:
It works, thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] fair06:
Thanks guys... I installed the latest version and had the same trouble with the side panel... Now all is well. So far working great!

Thanks again to the Dev for his hard work.
[Android Apps and Games] speedytr:
+1

This is a must.

Also a lock screen or some other way for reaching notifications directly have to be done.

If you can add these, this will be a golden app!
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
Big update at the first post. Thank you all for your suggestions, ideas, support and everything. I am very satisfied by the state of the app right now :fingers-crossed:

v0.4.0

- Fixed nav drawer not opening on click

- Added option to enable/disable Vibify based on proximity sensor (experimental)

- added some fancy animations

- improved performance of the list

- remove the "unlimeted notification times" because it is the same as the setting is off

Cheers!
[Android Apps and Games] Saratoga79:
Same request! Pocket mode would be perfect. Working great on SlimKat Rom (4.4.3) on Razr XT910.

the proximity sensor setting is the pocket mode you asked for [emoji6]

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Android Apps and Games] speedytr:
Any news for a new version? How about own lock screen or direct access to notification app (like acdisplay does)?

Also how does proximity sensor work? Polling time etc.
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
About the lock screen layout, I found how to do it but it might take some time. I will work on it but it won't be available in the next update.

The proximity sensor tries to assist the movement sensor with the lowest possible power consumption. It doesn't use any wakelock and it starts at the same time as the Movement sensor. If the screen is blocked both sleep for the time you have specified on settings (Movement Sleep - I have to change the name of this setting). If the screen remains unblocked for the "Still Threshold" (and of course the phone doesn't move) then Vibify starts and waits for a movement, even if the screen gets blocked or not (hands passing by, blocking the sensor while trying to pick the phone up, etc). So your phone sleeps like a baby if it remains at your pocket or upside down on the table. Overall it lowered power consumption very very much, but if you have a flip cover like me it keeps Vibify from running :rolleyes:.

At the current version (0.4.0 - Beta) there is a bug with the proximity sensor which is fixed in the upcoming one. :victory:
[Android Apps and Games] speedytr:
Thx for detailed answer. What about phone is lying on the desk face up and battery drain by this position?
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
If Proximity sensor is enabled and the screen is not blocked + phone is still for more than the "Still Threshold" + you have a pending notification for an app you have enabled from the list, only then Vibify consumes battery.

In the above state I noticed a consumption of 14% in 11 hours of Vibify running (all of the above were satisfied). The wakelock Vibify uses is the most light, but it is mandatory to keep the Movement sensor running. Otherwise you would move your phone and the vibration would come after unspecified time.

Cheers

I would like to thank and congratulate [MENTION=5897520]ric™[/MENTION] for the new logos of Vibify.

Thank you too! :) I'm happy cause I've been helpful for an app like this and...call me again, if you need more help ;) oh, I also look forward to the full pro version, of course :D can't wait to see how you will improve your app, go on like this! ;)
[Android Apps and Games] guy4jesuschrist:
If you add a lockscreen replacement UI, please allow the option to disable it, as I don't see a point in it for my use, since I can access the notification from the notification bar much more quickly. Which is also why I stopped using AcDisplay. That, and it conflicted with my current lockscreen replacement, Cover. Thanks so much for such a great and simple app! :)
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
Be sure about that ;)

[Android Apps and Games] fair06:
I have been working on testing each version of the app and so far it seems to be notifying inappropriate times. Battery usage seems minimal as I don't notice it affecting my usage time. I will give this latest version a whirl... I'm just thrilled to have come across such a great little app. It's the little features like this that should be baked right in Android. Thanks for all your hard work.

[Android Apps and Games] speedytr:
Unfortunately this wakelock is killing my battery.

I think you have to create a time limit for wakelock like acdisplay or peek cause this wakelock is a deal breaker. Phone cannot deep sleep. (wakelock killed %30-%35 battery and this is huge)

(using galaxy s4 gpe 4.4.3)
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
Thank you for the feedback! This behavior occurred after normal use during the day or during sleep, while having a missed notification? Can you please tell me your settings? Proximity sensor on? Still threshold? Sleep Time?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] speedytr:
This happened in normal use (day time) proximity on lots of missed whatsapp and message notifications. All the settings except screen on. The main problem is wakelock always active until you look at it. İt will not drain battery if it can stop after sometime like competitor apps. Screen on works but i think it will be much better it also lights up when a notification comes)
[Android Apps and Games] Germano.Mosconi:
I have a little problem: Vibify makes my phone vibrate when I'm using Facebook chat heads, even if I don't have any missed notification.
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
Thank you for the feedback. I confirm this problem! The thing is that system recognizes the chat heads as pending (permanent) notification, so that is what Vibify sees. I see what I can do, but it seems inevitable.

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
Vibify is now at play store! You can now install it from there. See the first for the link. If you like the app please consider getting the premium version! I really appreciate your help everybody.

Proximity sensor feature not working right on my device, I can feel some vibrations even if my device is in my bag. :rolleyes:

Keep pushing!
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
Thanks for the feedback. Can you please tell me your android version + phone model?

In addition keep in mind that if the screen is unblocked and the phone is still for the "Still Threshold" time preference, then Vibify starts and doesn't stop even if the screen gets blocked. That is needed because even when you try to pick up your phone you might block the proximity sensor and that would stop Vibify.

Cheers!
[Android Apps and Games] Saratoga79:
Thanks, will test more!

Just for information, I'm running SlimKat 5.10 (4.4.4) under Motorola Razr XT910.

[Android Apps and Games] Eddiemc:
Atm when I have a notification, the phone vibrates as crazy. Is it possible to make it just give a small vibration when I move the phone, not keep vibrating as long as theres movement?

So when I pick up the phone it will just give one small vibration, and that's it. Possible?
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
Hmm it should be that way :rolleyes:... I should only vibrate once and then stop... What is your phone model and which version are you using?? What are your setting of the app (sleep time and still threshold)?

Thanks for the feedback
[Android Apps and Games] rotzy:
I recently downloaded the free version from the Play store to try (since Samsung's Smart Alert doesn't seem be working on this device). It seems to be working well but I have noticed that it will not turn on my screen even though I have that option enabled.

Verizon GS5
[Android Apps and Games] Eddiemc:
Oops, my bad. Forgot those details: n9005 (Samsung galaxy note 3), cm11 latest nightly, Android 4.4.4

All default settings, proximity off.

I've turned on proximity now, after having my phone in my pocket and thinking it was ringing when it was just an sms that vibify went crazy about.

I'll play with the settings and report back.

Edit: Default settings gives me 4 vibrations with unequal space when picking the phone off the table.

Edit2: fixed

bumped up the settings to still threshold 5 sec and 10 sec sleeptime, and i get the pretty 1 single vibration I wanted..

Edit3: alas, not fixed. Random. Got 2.5 vibrations on the last text..
[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
Very nice app, I like it. But the battery drain seems to be a little bit high, my system displays it as the reason for about 53% of total power consumption. I don't know if I forget to disable an option or something like that, but with such a high power this app will likely not become part of my device. :(
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
If you have a missed notification for many hours that might lead to high battery consumption. Settings like sleep time and quiet hours lower the battery consumption. You can also set Vibify to notify you only once or twice in order to lower the consumption even more. Finally the proximity sensor option can save some battery but it is not stable yet.

Thank you all for the feedback and support. It was a busy week at work but I hope I will have more free time next week to launch a good update.

Cheers everybody

[Android Apps and Games] setiawanjimmy:
Helo, this is a great app but can someone tell me why do vibify sometimes keep my device awake while other time works just fine.. It consumed lots of battery when it keep my device awake..
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
Actually Vibify keeps your phone awake in order to detect when you move your phone, and give you that vibration. The thing is that if you forgot your phone with a missed notification for long time, Vibify will keep your phone awake for all that time, waiting for you to move the phone. The battery consumption is very small, but if those periods exceed 3 hours you can see Vibify rising at the Battery Stats !

I am thinking of adding an option as a threshold time, to protect the battery and disable Vibify after for example 1 hour of continuous operation (waiting)... What do you think?

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] adl:
Hi and thanks for the app!

Coming from the Galaxy S 4 i really missed that feature when i switched to a Nexus 5. The app works flawless so far (discovered it this morning and using it for some hours now). Will see how battery consumption is, when i use it during the next days. I like stuff like this "Pocket mode", where the phone turns on as soon as you take it out of the pocket and had received a notification, but it sucks to much battery for me, that´s why i tried your app and it seems to do an amazing job so far. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] setiawanjimmy:
Well, I know if there are notifications then it will keep the device awake, but in my case there was no notification and it still keep my device awake for few minutes. So I charged my phone to 100%, unplugged, went to shower and after finished shower I check my phone and it was 98%. So I check my battery consumption and there it is vibify keep it awake for like 16min.. Well after that it just works normally. So I don't know what happened.

Well its a good feature if you add some threshold time, could be useful when we are sleeping and there are notifications coming in. It could drain the battery if it keep the phone awake all night.. Another work around I believe by turning on the proximity option and leave it face down..
[Android Apps and Games] spirosbond:
New version coming with new feature :cool::

+ Safe turn off - After the specified duration Vibify will turn off to save even more battery.

Stay tuned and please rate the app on Play Store.
