    Buggy crap. Uninstalling the app caused the phone to hard reboot. Never seen that with any other app. Junk.

    Would be perfect if you could toggle the notification light.

    Great app, but needs an update for JB HTC Evo 4G LTE. Doesn't work at all.

    Everything works PERFECT on Defy Mini Dual SIM, and the customization level couldn't be better. Besides, the app permissions are the essential ones, not like most apps which require permission for Calling, Texting, Reading and Writing SMS, Contacts Data,

    This app never worked for me. It started crashing after first install. I thought it might be the settings but even after checking everything and trying to use the settings, this app still keeps crashing every time I use it. I am using Samsung Galaxy Nexus

    Including "Keep screen on while plugged in", which was one of the main reasons I bought it. Developer didn't respond to my message.
