Echo Notification Lockscreen 0.9.19
Stylish interface with some themes and settings
You'd expect a lockscreen app to come with themes, as well as wallpapers for customization. But Echo only comes with one wallpaper and no additional settings for the UI. Of course, you can select a picture from your gallery to set as background. Still, the wallpaper comes with relaxing blue colors, portraying a picture of the sea.
Manage notifications received from apps
Echo lock screen displays notifications from applications on your phone, arranged into categories. But you must do this manually. You can prioritize notifications and group them into categories. This will take some time, depending on the number of apps you've installed on your phone.
Echo displays the time, date and battery status, but that's about it. It won't show the temperature even if it's featured in your phone's status bar. This would have been extremely useful, considering that people often check weather conditions on their phones.
Secure your phone and create reminders directly from the lock screen
Still, Echo Notification Lockscreen is a good app to manage notifications received on your phone. The priority feature only wakes up your phone if you receive alerts from top apps and you can even set up your screen lock directly from within the app. You can choose a pattern or a PIN. In addition, the app lets you create instant reminders. If you missed a call, you can set Echo to bounce back the alert at a later time. It comes with ads which can be removed if you upgrade for 3.99$.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
Clean design with a stylish background, but the app lacks a selection of wallpapers to choose from and also more themes. |
Function8
It performs well, no lag or stability issues. However, the app is rather simplistic and could use a bit more work. |
Security7
No online registration, but requires access to almost all areas of your phone, including contacts and messages. |
Battery7
It uses quite a lot of battery for a lock screen app, you should keep that in mind. |
Price8
It comes with some ads, which can be removed if you upgrade for 3.99$. |
Compatibility8
The developer didn't mention Android versions required for this app, but it should work on tablets and was optimized to work with several launchers. |
Simplistic lock screen app that could use some more work.
