I don't think anyone can really argue that JellyBean 4.2.X is an amazing operating system for the Android, but the widget system on the lockscreen is a little sketchy at times.
I've personally found it to be a little unusable due to the widgets just not being as informative or as productive as I'd like them to be.
I found this Lockscreen notification widget that's going to change all that!
As you can see from the pictures above, they take your ordinary lockscreen and create an instant interactive notifications list. I know some of you may be thinking, "So... I just pull down the status bar and get the same thing." and you're right, but having this widget available the moment you wake your device shaves seconds for every message and email you get.
If you're like me, I get 20+ emails and 50+ texts per day. This widgets will quickly become a valuable asset.
App Features:
Installing it on your JellyBean 4.2.X device is very easy as well, and best of all Root Access is NOT required, all you have to do is:
1. Download and install the app from the link below.
2. Goto android settings - accessibility
3. Touch on NotificationsWidget and then turn it on.
4. Approve the android warning.
5. Lock the screen and add Notifications Widget to the lock screen.
If you don't have JellyBean 4.2.X, you can alternatively use WidgetLocker to use this widget
You can download the APK Here and find the original thread on XDA Here.
