About this app

Transform your lock screen experience with True Edge—the smart notification light and Always On Display (AOD) app designed for modern OLED and AMOLED smartphones.

Unlike typical Always On Display apps that stay active all day and drain battery life, True Edge operates as an ultra-efficient battery saving AOD. The screen stays completely asleep until you receive an alert. Once a notification arrives, True Edge brings your screen to life with stunning edge lighting and subtle LED notification light effects, giving you instant visual alerts without consuming unnecessary power.

Whether you miss the classic hardware notification LED or want a sleek, modern lock screen experience, True Edge is your all-in-one AOD notification light solution.

### Key Features

🌟 Smart Notification Light & Edge Lighting
Replace standard system popups with vibrant edge light animations. Choose from over 10+ real-time customizable styles:
• Particles: Starfield, Galaxy, Bubbles, and Fireball effects.
• Classics: Smooth Orbit, Pulse, and Tide wave lighting.
• Tech & Fun: Scanner, Glitch, Morse Code, and Snake retro animations.

💬 Interactive Direct Reply on AOD
Read and reply to incoming messages (SMS, WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger) directly from the Always On Display edge screen. Simply tap a notification to view full text and reply fast without unlocking your device.

🔒 Smart Privacy with Biometric Unlock
Protect sensitive message previews on your screen. Enable Smart Privacy to mask incoming message text until you authenticate with your fingerprint or Face ID right from the AOD notification overlay.

⚡ True Battery Saving Architecture
Designed specifically to eliminate battery drain on Android devices:
• Zero Idle Drain: The engine completely sleeps when no notification is active.
• AMOLED Pure Black: Uses true black pixels to keep screen power minimal on OLED displays.
• Smart Wake Filter: Automatically filters out background system updates and non-essential alerts so your screen only lights up for important notifications.

🔦 LED Flashlight Alerts
Never miss calls or messages when your phone is facing down. Integrated camera flashlight strobe, pulse, and hyper-flash modes give you powerful visual alerts in noisy or dark environments.

🎨 Full Customization Suite
• Color Match: Automatically extracts dominant app icon colors to match incoming alerts.
• RGB & Custom Presets: Choose from Cyberpunk, Ocean, Sunset, or build custom multi-color gradient borders.
• Speed & Size Control: Fine-tune stroke width, corner radius, and animation speed to match your exact screen curvature.
• Schedule & Spam Protection: Set active hours to conserve power overnight and prevent screen flickering during active group chats.

I was very hopeful for this app, and it's close, but not quite there. Yes, pretty much all of the app notifications activate the True Edge lighting effect, but not all of them display the "bubble" at the top of the screen with which app you are being notified about, nor do they all show the "bubble" that has a brief preview of the notification. Also, I find it to be inconsistent. One email will come and no "bubble", then another email will come and it will be there. Same with Twitter, Facebook, etc. This is on the Galaxy Note 10. Would love to see it 100% consistent.

Finally found one of these apps that actually works! Only issue is I can't figure out if there's a paid version that will allow to change color for different notifications. I don't see anywhere where it gives that option. I tried hitting the no ads button but nothing happens. Other then that, it works, and even works for app notifications that other lighting apps didn't!
