About Message Alert

Message Alert adds a new level of productivity to your Android phone, allowing you to view incoming and unread messages as soon as they appear on your phone, all without touching a button or turning on the screen.

Normally, when a new text message arrives Android devices just vibrate and flash an LED. Message Alert adds to that functionality by turning on the screen and displaying an alert that allows you to read and respond to your unread text messages, all without entering a messaging app. It makes it easy to get in and out of a conversation without ever leaving your current application.

Message Alert is not a full messaging application, but a lightweight addition to the standard notifications provided by Android. The interface allows you to swipe through all unread messages, or simply close all new messages to be read later.

Other text alert applications are buggy and annoying, popping up the same message multiple times, or when there aren't any new messages. Message Alert uses an entirely different approach to handling new messages, and will only show you unread messages, not the same message multiple times and will show you them in the right order, not just a random collection of messages.



Instructions
-------------------------------------------

The app must be opened at least once after installing for it to work correctly. Opening the app from the launcher or Google Play will make sure all of the features are on and running properly. This only needs to be done one time.

After installing Message Alert, notifications should be disabled in your normal messaging application. Message Alert uses its own notifications, and this can become annoying if multiple applications are creating notifications.

To do this, go into your regular messaging app and in the settings menu, disable any kind of notification, including vibration, LED flashes, and audio.

Yep.... I love it...So far.Just installed it and the first test works just fine.I will try it out all day and see how it goes. Tried it out for a week.... Everything working fine except one thing..... The time is off when showing the text that I received.Maybe I did something wrong so I uninstalled the app and I will reinstall it today,Sept.19 and see if it is ok. Just installed it and tried it out....Sent a text to my phone and the pop up works and the date is correct but the time is showing (12:58 ) PM and it is 8 AM . Not sure why it is showing wrong time but I will uninstall it for now.

On my LG G4, the vibrate does not work on the text messages only. Factory defect I guess. This app gives me the ability to set how it vibrates. Thanks!

The problem is that I can't send a text from it. It is great in terms of alerting me, but even though it is set up and supposed to allow me to respond from the app, it doesn't. I have to close the app, and then go to my messages. But the alert part, and the fact that it is on my home page is great.

different tone than standard system notification. It's not useful if the same tone that i use for emails is used for text messages.

works great on my Samsung Galaxy Note. Just wished you were able to make some customization. Popup messages have incorrect time of day. I'm on the East Coast and the time difference shown on new popup messages is 5 hours later (like 2:30 here and 7:30 noted on message). There is no way to customize app with your current time zone

Moved from apple to DROID. And really missed the text alerts. This has sorted it out brilliantly 5*

When you get a text message it lets you open or respond to the message without unlocking my phone so im wondering about security

by T####:

Great app so far, but I can respond to my messages before unlocking my phone. Seems like a big security risk. Anyway to fix this?
