Light Flow Lite is an Android application that provides users with customizable light notifications for various alerts.

Design and Functionality

Light Flow Lite revolutionizes the way light notifications function on your device. With this app, users can assign a spectrum of colors to different notifications, provided their device model supports it. Light Flow Lite allows users to choose from a variety of hues including blue, soft pink, cyan, deep orange, gold, green, indigo, lilac, lime, magenta, orange, pink, violet, red, light blue, turquoise, white, yellow, and many more.

Versatility and Customization

Light Flow Lite is not just about colors. It provides a high degree of customization for alerts. Some alerts, such as 'battery charged' or Bluetooth, come with a predefined color, but the rest can be modified according to the user's preference. If users want to apply the same color to multiple alerts, they can differentiate them using unique sound patterns or vibrations. This level of customization ensures that users can identify the type of alert without even unlocking their devices.

Night Mode and Special Features

The app also offers a night mode, which allows users to choose a less bright light or a shorter sound for notifications, ensuring they are not disturbed during their sleep. Light Flow Lite also allows users to assign colors to entire categories like social networks. For instance, on WhatsApp, a specific color can be assigned to a particular contact and on Facebook, a distinct color can be dedicated solely to private messages. This feature enables users to know who or what has sent them a message at any given point.

Conclusion

Light Flow Lite is an innovative and highly useful app that brings a new dimension to smartphone notifications. Its extensive color palette and customization options allow users to tailor their notification experience to their preferences, making it easier to stay on top of alerts and messages.

Potentially dangerous permissions

  • ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access precise location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION.
  • CAMERA: Required to be able to access the camera device.
  • GET_ACCOUNTS: Allows access to the list of accounts in the Accounts Service.
  • READ_CALENDAR: Allows an application to read the user's calendar data.
  • READ_CONTACTS: Allows an application to read the user's contacts data.
  • READ_PHONE_STATE: Allows read only access to phone state, including the phone number of the device, current cellular network information, the status of any ongoing calls, and a list of any PhoneAccounts registered on the device.
  • WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to write to external storage.

Other permissions

  • ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Allows applications to access information about networks.
  • ACCESS_NOTIFICATION_POLICY: Marker permission for applications that wish to access notification policy.
  • ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
  • BLUETOOTH: Allows applications to connect to paired bluetooth devices.
  • BLUETOOTH_ADMIN: Allows applications to discover and pair bluetooth devices.
  • CHANGE_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to change Wi-Fi connectivity state.
  • EXPAND_STATUS_BAR: Allows an application to expand or collapse the status bar.
  • INTERNET: Allows applications to open network sockets.
  • MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS: Allows an application to modify global audio settings.
  • NFC: Allows applications to perform I/O operations over NFC.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
  • REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS: Permission an application must hold in order to use ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS. This is a normal permission: an app requesting it will always be granted the permission, without the user needing to approve or see it.
  • SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW: Allows an app to create windows using the type TYPE_SYSTEM_ALERT, shown on top of all other apps. Very few apps should use this permission; these windows are intended for system-level interaction with the user.
  • VIBRATE: Allows access to the vibrator.
  • WAKE_LOCK: Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
