KEY FEATURES
Aerize is a simple utility that allows you to display a pop-up notification on your home screen whenever someone sends you either an email or a text message.
By clicking on the Aerize Alerts icon in your applications menu, you are brought to the configuration screen where you can customize a number of things:
- Font size: Small, normal or large.
- Auto-dismiss: This allows you to alter the length of time pop-up notification remains on your home screen. You can disable this feature, allowing the pop-up to remain on your homes screen until you manually dismiss it, open it, or mark it. You can also set Aerize up to dismiss the pop-up after 5, 15, 30 or 60 seconds.
- Show email pop-up/show SMS pop-up: You can set Aerize Alerts to show when either one or both email and SMS texts are received. You can also disable Aerize altogether.
- Body preview: Set the length of the body preview to short, long, or disable it altogether – showing only contact info an a photo (if you’ve assigned one to the contact).
- Buttons: You can set Aerize to show the buttons (open, mark, delete, go to inbox) in a stack at the beginning of the message, in a strip, or at the end of the message in the pop-up.
- Only show if: This allows you to set the rules dictating when a notification pops up. You can allow pop-up notifications for anyone, or set Aerize to notify you with a pop-up if the sender is a contact, has a photo assigned to them, or if the message is of high importance (added in version 1.1.0).
- You can display an example alert with your own configurations at any time by scrolling to and clicking on the display example alert button.
Nice review. I’d rather have PeeKaWho though, it looks a lot more complete than Aerize.
Aerize is nice as it compliments the oem bb syle. The peekawho is visually appealing as well, however, both apps have FAILED
By not incorporating a “missed call” on their apps. I hope they can do this soon!
