ArcLighting Notify LED island 101-prod

The SymetiumUI application incorporates accessibility services to enable optional features, such as setting the navigation bar color to match the primary color of foreground applications and allowing users to create custom presets for different locations across their device. The app ensures user privacy by not collecting any personal information during its operation.

Additionally, the app provides customizable lighting indicators, including audio visualization, notification alerts, critical or low battery warnings, and a charging indicator. The ring can also be displayed on the Always-On Display (AOD). Please note that this feature is currently in beta; it may occasionally malfunction. It is recommended to use a third-party AOD app if issues arise with the stock implementation. Ensure that Samsung/stock AOD and Edge Lighting are disabled under display settings, and verify that both the third-party AOD activates correctly when the device is locked. Also, confirm that Arc Lighting is enabled with AOD active and 'Override' turned off. The app offers an 'Override' toggle for users who prefer not to install a third-party AOD app; however, this will force a fingerprint icon on the display—a behavior managed by Samsung and not directly controlled by the application.

Key Features:

• Extensive customization for lighting effects on supported devices such as Galaxy S10 series, Note 10, OnePlus devices, and some unsupported models, including a variety of colors, animations, and styles.
• New manual alignment adjustment feature for unsupported devices.
• Adjustable glow effect that can be toggled on or off.
• Notification lighting that functions whether the display is on or off.
• Music synchronization lighting that reacts to audio playback; note that enabling this will deactivate other lighting effects.
• Battery level indicators for charging status, low battery, and critical battery conditions—users should configure custom zones for optimal performance.
• Overheating indicator suitable for gamers and power users.
• Optional rotation animation effects.
• Gradient color options for increased visual diversity.
• Arc Lighting can be personalized to match wallpaper colors, the currently active app, or both simultaneously.

This application requires specific permissions to operate effectively:

• Accessibility: Enables the ring overlay on lock screens and Always-On Display; accesses current app color information. Essential for app functionality.
• Draw Over Other Apps: Allows the ring to appear above other applications, necessary for correct operation.
• Microphone Access: Analyzes internal device audio for music lighting effects; permission is only requested if Music Visualizer is enabled.
• Storage Access: Retrieves wallpaper colors for custom ring coloring; permission requested only when used.
• Notification Access: Alters ring color based on notifications received.

Regarding device screen safety, some Android displays may experience mild burn-in if a static element remains on-screen excessively. Users can disable the default persistent effect to show the ring only when triggered. Samsung devices with burn-in protection typically mitigate this risk by moving pixels periodically.

Known issues include occasional crashes when adjusting position—solved by force-stopping and restarting the app—sensitivities in position adjustments, glow effects freezing atop other visuals when no light is active (turn off glow if unused), overlapping indicators like battery temperature necessitating turning off certain effects if they interfere with visibility, and reliance on the override option when other configurations fail. Users are advised to disable certain features if they encounter problems or instability.

Frequently Asked Questions:

1. How can I disable notifications from individual apps? This feature is planned for future updates. Currently, users can set notifications from unwanted apps to 100% transparent in custom color settings.
2. Is this app free? Yes, it is free to use indefinitely. However, users are encouraged to view short ads periodically—about once every hour—to continue usage. Watching multiple ads extends access further. Purchasing a version without ads is also available.
