Android Rapid Snap : Lockscreen Calendar Puts Appointments On Your Lockscreen

Adding stuff to make your Android lockscreen be more productive than it currently is seems to be a thing that has interested. Lockscreen Calendar is a handy Android application that puts your upcoming calendar events right on your lock screen–and therefore right in front of you every time you go to open your phone. If you heavily rely on your device to remind you of what you need to do, then you should really check out what XDA Recognized Developer j4velin has prepared for you. Lockscreen Calendar brings that small missing bit of aforementioned functionality back into our lockscreens. The app switches the alarm notifications that do show on the screen by your upcoming calendar appointments. Now, you cannot longer excuse yourself from forgetting an appointment as all you need to do to remember is hit the power button and look at your screen. Carrying around your calendar in your pocket is useless if you forget to check it. Lockscreen Calendar puts upcoming events on your lock screen so that every time you unlock your phone you get an instant refresher of the upcoming events. You can configure they way it displays the date, whether it shows the location of the event or not, and how often it updates.

Setting up Lockscreen Calendar is extremely simple. Launch the app, tap the arrow icon at the bottom once and select one or more registered Google accounts of your choice. From within the screen that follows, you may alter the maximum number of Calendar events to be displayed and the interval after which the app rescans / updates said events. Tapping Update now immediately scans for any changes you may have made to your Calendar events, adjusting the ones displayed on the lockscreen accordingly.

Lockscreen Calendar supports all stock lockscreens, and can display upcoming meetings from multiple calendars. You can control how many upcoming appointments are shown, and how frequently the app updates what's shown on your desktop. This way if you're often double or triple-booked by coworkers who love to meet, or have meetings every hour or so, you can dial in the settings to show three or more items and update every hour.

Once installed, force the app to update at least once to pull in your calendar, and after that it'll update on the schedule you set. The app has a difficult time with recurring events, but the developer points out that the app is still a beta release and he's still working on it. Even so, it's fairly polished and worth a look if you have a full calendar.
