Hey everyone,

this app was published and sold for years on Google Play, until Google got too annoying with their permission restrictions and their bot removed the app. I didn't want to remove functionality so I just called it a day. Now, inspired from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, I decided to work on the app again, mainly for myself but there has been a constant stream of Mails asking me where it has gone, so I decided to republish it on some alternative App store for free (just as it once started). Long story short, I haven't found any useful alternative Appstore which is not abandoned or worse than Google Play, so here we are, trying to use this board as release home base.

Is it really me, the same developer? Yes and my updates use the same APK-Signature as on Google Play so you can check it (or just update an old version with these new ones). One note: I'm using the package name of the prior free/test version (which is now the full version). If you have bought the pro version years ago, you need to uninstall it and grab this one instead.

Red Alert​

Go to Red Alert with this wallpaper!

A live wallpaper showing the Red Alert signal. But it's not just some eye candy, true to its original purpose it will help you to monitor your device and alert you about any important events. Missed a call from your friend without noticing? You won't ever again when the Red Alert flashes on your screen and the klaxon calls for your attention ;)

Currently the following events can be set to trigger the yellow or red alert:

Messages: SMS, MMS, GMail, Skype, WhatsApp, Kik, Snapchat, Telegram

Any other Notifications

Missed Calls: Phone, Skype, Viber

Alarm Clock

Battery Level and charging state

Phone Temperature

Failed Unlock Attempts

Signal Loss (WiFi or Mobile)

This app is free, complete and contains no ads. It does offer an option to donate.

Changelog​

v3.6

Fixed the Alarm Clock functionality (which got broken by newer Android Versions)

Added the option to show an alert indicator on Always-On-Displays (which many OLED phones have, but I tested it with my Pixel 6 mostly)

Fixed the LCARS picture alert animation which was messed up on phones with a narrow display

Added Telegram implementation for third-party alerts

Some minor fixes

v3.5

It's been a while :) For now the full version of Red Alert is free and without any ads. Consider leaving a tip if you enjoy it.

Battery alerts now offer different battery source to monitor. For now the one additional option besides the phone battery is Daly BMS Bluetooth, which is used in some (and mine) lithium batteries you can find in RVs and so on

Removed the old voice command implementation due to its subpar recognition rate. For future versions support of google assistant is planned

Fixed the alert on snapchat implementation (more fixes coming)

Added a new alert trigger for all notifications not handled already by a third-party trigger

Advanced users: Turn on the Always-On-Display on alerts (mostly for Pixel 6), more stuff for the AoD to planned

Additional Instructions:​

If you want to enable the "Always-on-Display on Alert" functionality, which allows you to turn off the Always-On-Display usually but only enable it when there is an alert, you will have to use the following line in the Android Debug Tools to grant the required permission:

I'm not sure which phones support this function other than Pixel 6, but it requires at least Android 12.
