Always On Edge

Always On Edge is a customization tool for Android that allows users to activate the leds on the edges of their screen to provide notifications -- or to simply decorate their screen when it's turned off. The way Always On Edge works is simple: from the app settings menu, you determine the type of lighting you want to set up for the side of the screen: if you want the light to be fixed, if you want it to move around the screen, if you want it to blink... Similarly, you can activate and deactivate the led that usually lights up by default with the notifications, or make it shine in another way. You can also set it up so that only the area of the screen around the camera lights up. Last but not least, you can also turn on the leds for a specific color you're looking for to create gradients with up to three colors. Those colors light up the outside border of your screen. In short, you can configure your leds to do anything. On the other hand, you also sync up the brightness animation of the screen to a specific type of notification, so that it shines in one way or another depending on whether you got a Telegram message, a Twitter message or a missed call.

About:

Always On Edge is an app made as a substitute for the actual LED that some phone models have. Its primary function is to light up the edges of your phones as a notification of incoming messages, calls, or other reminders. However, you can also use the app for many events, including fully charged, screen lock and unlock, headset plugged and unplugged, and many others.

Besides its many use, AOE also has varied customization options for the lighting color, style, and effect. You can turn on the LEDs for a specific color or create visually pleasing gradients by mixing up to three colors. Moreover, you can differentiate setup for each event and app, so you would know if its a call, chat, or an event notification. Furthermore, you can adjust the brightness to high or low to suit your needs. The app further extends its customizability by allowing the screen light to be fixed, moving around the screen, or blinking.

However, to get your desired effect, there will be lots of tweaking needed. The simple setting menu offsets it. However, if you want a customized setup, you will have to go through various options. Moreover, while many options are free, some require you to watch ads before you can use them. Lastly, since it uses lights, the app eats up your battery fast.

Features:
