About this app

On the free version, the modules will stop after 30 mins of continuous usage!
Full version is available through an in-app purchase for only 0.99 EUR / 1.49 USD


Lucid automatically starts when you put your device in the dock or when you charge it. The app is very customizable and comes with a lot of functionallity, like:

Clock: Show the current time & date and can also show...
... battery level
... weather
... unread GMails
... new SMS texts
... missed calls
... next alarm
... many more information from most DashClock extensions

RSS view: flips through new events from your RSS feeds

Slideshow view: start a slideshow with images from your device


On Android 4.2+ you need to enable the "DayDream" in the Android display settings to use & configure the app! Note that the system won't start the daydream if you're display is kept awake! Make sure to disable the "Keep awake while charging" option in the Android developer settings (if you have enabled that before). On Samsung devices, make sure to disable the "keep display on while eye contact is detected" option (or how they call that)


You can use the identifiers here http://developer.android.com/reference/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html to change the time and date format

Im loving this app so far. I was looking for a screensaver that did a random order slideshow of a specific set of pictures while phone is docked and/or charging. And this app is the only 1 i found that does exactly what i want. The only feature i wish was added is the ability to dim the screen with the picture slideshow screensaver. You can set it to dim the screen when using the clock, but not with the picture slideshow. Other than that, its an amazing app. Worth checking out for sure. 👍 👍

Much better than I expected. I wanted a night clock that wouldn't burn an image on the screen. A moving screensaver. This is it, and more. It displays upcoming calendar events, number of unread email and unread texts messages, next alarm and more, and has customizable colors. I am very pleased. I wish I had found this month's ago. Good work.

I enjoy the app quite a bit. I was looking for a dock solution for when my phone is at my desk to provide me an at a glance set of information. unread email's don't seem to work but that's not a dealbreaker for me... The main complaint I have is that I can't customize the movement of the screensaver. I.e. I want the text to stay on the screen longer. I'd also like a little more customization how the information is displayed. Be able to expand some things. I like that you can click on the items and it will open. It's a shame though that it doesn't seem to work on calendar items. And some other notification's that show up. Overall a very useful application, if those few things get fixed/added I'd be willing to buy premium. Oh yeah, not even sure what premium does but it'd be nice to support a responsive developer.
