Title: Glimpse Notifications
Genre: Productivity
Developer: Nullgrad Apps
Description

Are you tired of having to press the power button to see new notifications? You once owned and iPhone can can’t believe Android doesn’t offer such a basic function? Then this app is for you!

FINGERPRINT SENSORS AND SMARTLOCKS

Depending on your configuration, this app may need the Device Administrator permission.

To implement several (optional) features, Glimpse Notifications may need to turn off the screen. This happens with a delay imposed by Android and smart locks such as fingerprint sensors will keep working. Alternatively, the app may be registered as a device administrator. The screen is then locked immediately, but fingerprint sensors and other smart locks will no longer work.
