AuraLook: OLED Notifications

About this app

Tired of Android's boring lockscreen notifications? Missing important messages in a messy notification tray? AuraLook intercepts your incoming alerts and presents them on a beautifully minimalist, pure OLED black canvas.



Bringing the iconic ShortLook aesthetic to Android, AuraLook gives your device a premium, cinematic lock screen experience without draining your battery.



✨ HOW IT WORKS

AuraLook only triggers when your screen is OFF. When a notification arrives, it gracefully animates a massive app icon on a pitch-black background. It works seamlessly whether your Always On Display (AOD) is enabled or off, serving as the ultimate ambient display replacement.


🧠 SMART FILTERING

Your screen shouldn't wake for every background task.

• DND Sync: If your phone is on Do Not Disturb, AuraLook stays completely quiet.

• Clutter Control: Automatically ignores silent alerts, music players, and ongoing downloads.


🔋 OLED BATTERY SAVER

AuraLook uses a true black background, keeping OLED/AMOLED pixels completely turned off. You get maximum visibility with minimal battery drain.


📱 FLUID GESTURES

• Single tap to dismiss.

• Double tap to sleep (Requires accessibility service).

• Swipe up to directly open the notification.


🛡️ 100% OFFLINE & PRIVATE

AuraLook requires ZERO internet permissions. It is physically impossible for the app to transmit data, read messages, or upload contact photos. Everything stays locally on your device.



👑 AURALOOK PRO

Upgrade with a simple one-time purchase to unlock deep customization (No subscriptions!):

• Contact Avatars: See the actual profile picture of the person messaging you.

• Privacy Mode: Hide sensitive message content from notifications.

• Manage Apps: Choose exactly which apps are allowed to wake your screen.


⚠️ COMPATIBILITY NOTES

• Smartwatches: Fully compatible with Wear OS (Galaxy Watch, Pixel Watch). If notifications stop syncing to third-party watches, simply disable the 'DND approach' in AuraLook’s advanced settings or disable DND Sync in your smartwatch companion app.

• System Conflicts: To prevent overlapping UI, turn off native screen-waking features (e.g., Pixel's "Wake screen for notifications").



(Uses the Notification Listener Service to detect alerts, and Accessibility Service API solely to securely turn your screen off.)

Ratings and reviews

Hands down the best lock screen notification app out there! The core functionality of handling lock screen notifications is flawless—clean, intuitive, and highly reliable. It displays notifications exactly how they should be, making it incredibly easy to manage updates at a glance without even unlocking the phone. Minimalist yet powerful. Kudos to the developer for creating such a useful and well-executed app!

Nicely done. Now that I have used it for a few days and even though free version gives me everything I need, I bought it just to support the dev. Good job.

works so perfectly even on the free version, when I can I would love to pay to support since its exactly what ive been looking for. thank you!!
