MisLED—Is Your Android Phone Missing a Physical Notification LED? Well, Fix It!

Ever been stuck in a staff meeting, trying desperately to pay attention to the details of this week’s profit and loss (or to just stay awake, in general), while your precious little Android device sits there on the table in front of you, dauntingly, with its LED blinking incessantly at you? You stare at it. It stares right back. Its flashing lights,  act as a substitute pair of batted eyelashes while it whispers; “grab me, you know you want to.” And yes, OF COURSE, you want to pick that thing up, cradle it in the palm of your hand, put your fingers to its beautifully inviting [inter]face, peer into its depths and see what important message is awaiting you beneath its surface…and there’s only ONE thing worse than the uncheckable indicator light…and that’s…not having one at all.

Thank God for Android and it’s open source market…’cause I found the perfect app! NoLED…not only will you get onscreen notifcations, but, you’ll even know what KIND of notification is waiting for you via color coded onscreen icons (emails, texts, missed calls, voice messages, and even new chat notifcations).
