Sigh, I used the X series for years, HANDS DOWN the best feature was the wave to unlock. It was so sensitive it was amazing, 100% success rate, it would even occasionally catch me just glancing at it. I miss it dearly. Unfortunately I had other issues so decided to try something else, I'm now on a Pixel 3...Why can't any app do the same? I've tried them all, this one is actually still the best but with maybe a 75% (or less) success rate. It doesn't work if the phone is in hibernate so basically after 10 minutes of inactivity it's useless. It's 'ok' when it does work, but it still usually takes a few waves instead of the quick and easy like with my X phones. I know I know it's not a Moto device, but just know if you're in the same boat this IS NOT nearly as good as the actual feature but, better than nothing and battery drain is quite minimal so that's good. However I wouldn't mind slight more drain if it meant more sensitivity.

Edit: after having this installed for some time it works much less reliably :( Brings back one of the best features from the original Moto X. Works great on G5 Plus. I can't imagine why Motorola eliminated the wave feature in the first place. Volume control extra option is nice, would be even better if a slider is possible in a future update.

This App is currently working on moto g5 plus(oreo) by increasing sensitivity and force notification....app preference resets each time it is launched...and the above mentioned steps has to be again applied manually.... However this way it does work.

Thanks for your patience. I have received multiple complaints about the app breaking in Oreo. I have yet to look into the cause as I am a bit busy now. I will update the app once I find the issue.
