Annoyed that your phone doesn't light up when you receive a text? Just install this nifty little app! This tiny little program runs in the background and awakes your phone for a few seconds to alert you of a new text message. Optional popup and toast messages, disabled by default.


Works with Hangouts, GO SMS, Handcent, and other 3rd party clients! If you are having trouble getting it to work with these clients, try uninstalling and re-installing THAT app (NOT THIS ONE). The way android handles notification priorities is based on which app was installed first. I apologize for the inconvenience, but there is nothing I can do on my end.

Also, the length of time the screen is on may not be consistent between certain phones. There is nothing I can do to fix this, either - different phones have different limits imposed by manufacturers that I cannot override. I apologize that you cannot use my app to its full potential.

Try it before you buy it! Download the free version - certain features are not available in the free version.

If you have any suggestions for features, feel free to email me at dberm22@gmail.com

Stops working on HTC10 every couple of days and need resetting. Pro version no better then free one

Just what I needed for my Motorola Droid Turbo 2 phone. Now I never miss a text when my phone is in silent mode or the screen is blanked out. Program works great. Thank you for making this program. Well worth the .99 cents.

Paid for the pro version. Installed it. Yet my purchase is not recognized, and I still get bugged every single notification to buy pro. What gives. Fix it.

Used to work great on my HTC One, Android 5.0 Now on a Samsung S6, Android 5.1 it is terrible. When I installed on the new phone it was popping up constantly asking me to upgrade to the pro version, which I already purchased and installed. Once in awhile it seems to turn on the screen but more often than not, the screen does not turn on at all. Very disappointing. Would have highly recommended it before, but not anymore.

Can you maybe introduce an option where if the screen is awake and using your phone so that when you get a text it doesn't have a pop up note, chances are that we know we got a text while using our phone, so it gets kinda spammy, thank you

So simple and worked instantly. Perfect. I couldn't get my screen to light up on with sms and it drove me nuts, this was so simple and perfect.

Keep on getting a upgrade to pro popup even though I paid for it. Uninstalling until fixed. This is on 5.1.1, Nexus 6.

Awesome little app. Started using this after my notification LED stopped working.

I paid for the full version, yet still got asked upon opening every message, "do you want to go pro"? Tried changing every setting known to man, to no avail. Total waste of money. Uninstalling now.

I use to like it more, but it seems to be having trouble with the Hangouts app.

K70%
by K####:

This would be MUCH more useful if it had an option to show the text that was received on the popup, not just "New Message Received". That was not a big deal till I got the Lollipop update to my HTC One M8. Used to be when I had a text, this app would wake up the screen and the HTC lock screen would show the text. But with L, the lock screen is littered with a ton of other notification messages, so the text message gets buried. THAT is why the popup needs to show the actual text of the message.

This is great. Works perfectly on my HTC One. I don't know how many times I haven't realised that I had received a text message. Now I can't miss them with this. The blinking LED on the HTC One is just too small and is easily missed.

I can't get it to work for anything. I bought the pro version too. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

I've had this app for sometime and been very pleased with it. Unfortunately I updated it yesterday.. The black and white text was very clear and appeared when the phone was on standby.. Now the phone just lights up,and the blue text is poor. Wish I hadn't updated!!!

Does exactly what I need for sms messages. Wakes screen up to preview text for the amount of time I choose. From there I can slide up to view, or leave it. Job done, thanks!

Works great on HTC One X. Very helpful and paid for this app even though it has the same function as the free.

by A####:

This is the perfect, lightweight app I was looking for on my phone. I tried SMS Popup (a few issues) and all of the SMS/MMS alternative apps, but I wanted to stick with the stock messaging app on my Droid Razr HD. I'm looking forward to the addition of MMS to its WakeUp feature...

It is the small and simple apps that make life all the better. I would be lost without this app and for me the free version was a must have app. That has now been replaced by this version. The extra features are just the icing on the cake.

Good app that hassle free while chatting on nexus one

Small, light app that does exactly what it's meant to do. First app I've ever paid for on the Play store. Keep supporting this developer!

Does what i wanted it to do; turn on the screen when i get a notification. Stinks that there wasnt anything new really in the pro version though, toast notification is just a little thing that pops up at the bottom saying "new message" when you unlock the device. Was hoping for something that popped up on the lock screen under the clock that i could tap to go to the message.

K70%
by K####:

Good, simple app. This is what I was looking for, without any other options, so it's perfect for me :) The screen length option doesn't seem to do anything on my phone (it stays on for like 10 seconds no matter what option I pick) but that isn't really an issue for me.

I can't even Download this app after paying for it.

I'd love a night time mode, where you can set it to turn off during a certain time, eg when you're sleeping. But this is an awesome app anyway, and I'm so grateful that it exists!

This app consistently crashes when I try to "view message". This may have something to do with hangouts being the default SMS application. I would love this app if it were working properly. For now, app will be disabled.

This app is so great, I downloaded the free one at first and with the first text message I received came and my screen lit up to notify me (I keep my phone on silent because of work) I immediately bought the pro version. I love this app. It's amazing. Great job!
