About Nevolution (BETA)

Nevolution is an open platform for Android to evolve the notification experience of existing apps, in a creative developer-independent way via community-driven plug-ins, without the involvement of the original app developer.

Android supports highly rich notification experience, and the feature set expanded in almost every major Android versions. Unfortunately, most apps only use a small set of limited capabilities of notification, rendering them less elegant and even ugly on your modern Android devices.

If you use an Android Wear smart watch or Android Auto powered car, it's extremely disappointed that probably most of your favorite apps do not work on them.

We are not asking any more, but showing them the right way to build better experience, with the efforts from Nevolution community.

Limitations

* Notification sound and vibration may be interrupted early. A solution is being worked on.
* Before Android 6.0, due to platform limitation, the status-bar icon of the some notifications can not be kept if they are evolved.
* Evolved notifications are not automatically removed by the originating app (e.g. when app is opened). A possible solution is being evaluated.

------

*Bundle*: Bundle separate notifications into a single one, click to split.
*Elastic List*: Stretch the single-lined list into smart multi-lined.
*Stack*: Stack recent historical messages as a list.
*Multi-line Text*: Expand truncated text into multi-lines.

Tutorial was a little wonky, but this is a great start. Needs work on notification dismissals (when read or used), which I'd imagine is to come. Keep up the good work

C70%
by C####:

Absolutely no benefit to using this app. Google handles it much better natively. Don't waste your time, can't even clear notifications.

It works, but when i have Nevolution notification access enabled my smartwatch will not pop up notifications anymore. The notifications get to the smartwatch, but I am not given a visual popup or vibration notification anymore. When I turn off Notification Access for Nevolution, all works like normal again. I know BETA so see if you can look into this issue. Otherwise great app, great idea! Thanks

2) I got a notice that my Century Link wifi was "dangerous." How do I go find out who/what sent this notification and why? Can't Nevolution block anonymous notifications?

by C####:

Can ONLY run the tutorial, can't actually USE the app due to immediate FC

C70%
by C####:

Tutorial is major confusing. Now I get double notifications, from this and all the apps themselves. But the notifications that come through Nevolution are silent and there is now sound adjustments. Definitely needs more work.

C70%
by C####:

It allows you change how text is displayed, and if the notification pops up or stays hidden. Add more features and it will be worth something. Like maybe an option to block a notification(like the "finding location" notification) or maybe change fonts or colors?

No use whatsoever. Notification bar on LG does a much better job.

What's the point!

C70%
by C####:

Doesn't do anything... Can't even tell if an option is activated or not, i.e. is green lit button off or on? Is it only used to filter or to activate when app is closed? Like I said, can't tell.

by C####:

I can't see WhatsApp/SofaScore/Email and some notifications in the status bar which I've modified through this app. It only shows when I expand the notification bar. I know it's in beta right now, so I'll be patient because this seems like a great idea. Hope the bugs are squashed soon

I'm a big fan of Greenify so had to try this. Works great, bit of a learning curve but not too bad. Works great for bundling notifications together.

Works as advertised

Doesn't seem to do anything on S7 Edge running 6.0.1.

All systems are go! What a neat app.

Just as title says.

C70%
by C####:

Seems to work as advertised. One thing I've noticed is with the Multi line text option is seems to prevent the notification from hitting the status bar. This persists after reboot. May need looking into.

Thanks dev.

Dev, you are amazing

Excellent

R70%
by R####:

Great app so far. I like the current things you can do in this app. One suggestion, can a widget be made for this so those of us that want to use this to easily pull back up old notifications that were swiped away can?

U70%
by U####:

How notifications should be

B70%
by B####:

This is amazing especially for not being able to read cut-off messages from stock notifications. I would like to request one small feature(more like an ui change), would it be possible to change the color of the notification for each app based on the app's primary color? Something that Google maps did very recently, it adds a nice look and feel to the whole experience. Eitherway, can't wait to see what new changes will come through, keep up the amazing work.

I would recommend this app to everybody

Needs a better UI and controls for all notifications.

Awesome app

C70%
by C####:

I loved the concept and got excited about it. If it worked, I think I'd love it, but it crashes literally every few seconds.

C70%
by C####:

This app changed my status bar and lock screen. I dunno why it affected the UI in this way, but it's weird and even stayed after I uninstalled it. Hm.

C70%
by C####:

too buggy for me to use ATM as is it still in BETA. Will wait for future updates. Awesome job so far.

C70%
by C####:

I could not figure out how to get the dang notifications off the front page. I used to swipe them gone, but not with this thing.

L70%
by L####:

It's nice to see, but the UI is pretty bad, also you need to get a notification in order to adjust the properties. Better explanation of what the setting you are enabling actually does as well

by C####:

Its to be expected. Should have been released a bit later.

C70%
by C####:

It's been a while since I last saw an app this useless lol

C70%
by C####:

Other then that, it doesn't really do much. Snowball is a much better option for organizing notifications.

I love the notification change on how it looks with Nevolution, it's wonderful and New, and different for a change.
