Verizon Droid Missed Call App

It was one of the first apps I looked for. While not perfect it is a step in the right direction. The Missed Call Android App is a great tool for notifying you of any missed Call, SMS Text Message, Blue Tooth service, Calendar service, and even Application service. You have the option to show the Notifications status icon and to Auto-start the app.

Missed Alert App

My guess is that this simple feature was left out on purpose. Missed Call Android App fills a void with Android which by default doesnā€™t offer adequate settings to be notified of missed calls or SMS text messages. Android wants people searching for apps. What better way than to leave off simple features that all want or are used to. Like alerts. There is just a flashing green LED light. Missed Call Android App allows you to configure notification services,Ā  LED color and LED intervals, vibration and vibration intervals, soundā€¦ plus option to choose sound file, and repeat notification options.

The calendar notifications are not 100%.Ā  This was a problem. It worked then it didn’t. One time is didn’t alert while I was looking at the phones screen. At the moment when an event reminder pops up you will get your custom LED notification. All the other notifications are disabled. In addition you have to stop the LED by sliding down the window shade status bar!

You have to deactivate the notifications in the default messaging applications or any other application that organizes your SMS. If you donā€™t do this you will get two notifications! I didn’t do this at first and the phone over-alerted.

Tip on how to disable SMS notifications in other apps.

If using SMS apps like the default Messaging or ChompSMS:

* Open Messaging app
* Tapp ā€œMenuā€ button
* Tapp ā€œSettingsā€
* Tapp ā€œNotificationsā€

    Nice post. I’m really reading up on apps because I think its the wave of the future. The internet is dying imho. I found a software which lets you create apps pretty easily, its called Droid Generator. I made my first app this weekend and it already brought 400+ people to my blog. Funny because it took my only 5 minutes to make the app, and the payoff is just dumbfounding.
