Features include:
* Customise your Dot View screen with custom gradients.
* Control your music playback and see what's playing right from the Dot View cover.
* Add gestures to the case and customise them.
* See notifications at a glance, with support for all Android notifications. (enable the listener in Settings -> Security -> Notifications access)
** See the full notification when it first comes in: your notifications scroll across the screen.
* Quick dial contacts right from the cover, with support for up to 9 shortcuts spread across 3 pages.
* Don't have a contact and still want to dial them quickly? Open up a full dialer right from the cover.
* Use mini apps from the cover: camera for a quick shot, or a calculator right from the cover.
And if you're bored:
* Play a quick game of Snake, retro-style!
Compatibility:
* This module was coded with the stock DotMatrix application set to 480DPI, the developer cannot guarantee it'll work fine with other DPIs.
* If you have other modifications installed, support cannot be guaranteed.
Usage:
* Dialer:
Swipe up on the indicator to call a number. If no numbers are input, a swipe up redials the last person called.
A future update may add speed dial from the stock dialer.
* Snake:
Tap the HTC logo on your cover to pause the game, tap it again to save progress and quit the game.
* Shortcuts:
Swipe left and right to change between shortcut pages.
- Support new Dot View update: this module has not been abandoned, and neither will any of my paid apps, it is long overdue and I apologise for that, I was just caught up in uni and really didn't have time. Updates will be made on weekends from here on.
- Experimental album art backgrounds
- Support latest Dot View update
- Experimental album art background
- New and improved dialer mini app
- For users whose camera doesn't work on Dot View, the app won't crash anymore, but it'll likely still not work, still investigating why this happens
- Bug fixes
- Fixed crash upon opening settings for free users
- Added crash reporting, requires new INTERNET permission
- Calculator mini app
- Fixes for overlapping notifications on incoming call screen
- New mini app: Camera, useful for quick point and shoots
- Fix for invisible clock if there was a notification before Dot View is started
- Fixes for overlapping 3rd party and 1st party notifications, 1st party notifications are prioritised
- Support for new Dot View update, this update requires the new version and will not work with older Dot View packages
- Hotfix: notifications disappeared at times and the gradient showed instead.
Note: Reboot immediately after the Xposed "Module updated" notification shows. Delaying that will eventually cause a crash
- NEW: Added custom gradient support
- All non scrolling text now uses gradient colours as with the time

- Implemented notification clicks, this can be enabled in settings. This allows you to tap a notification to go into it when the cover is opened.
- Menu could not be used for first three items for non-pro users, fixed. Note: limited to contacts.
- FIXED: Not all packages were shown in notification blacklist.
- FIXED: Nothing happens when a contact or number is called. This is because behind the cover, the user is asked to select which app to use. Forced to phone in this version.
- FIXED: possible bugs (none of these have been reported though)
- FIXED: Battery percentage and date may not working correctly in 24h mode
- FIXED: Launcher icon setting did not have any effect. If you placed the icon in a folder, it will leave it once, sorry
