Make some lock screen items clickable shortcuts
asked 2014-01-29 09:33:32 +0300
I set an alarm and closed the app. Lock screen still showed the alarm icon as it should but it couldn't be accessed. In that situation I had to go two screens down and and re-open the clock app from Launcher to access it. I think it would be intuitive for some of the lock screen icons to be clickable (maybe long touch) for quick access to settings. Alternatively alarm/clock shortcut could be added to the pulley menu although I think that's worse idea.
Do you guys think this is a good idea or should the lock screen stay as it is (ie. just to show some info but not access any apps)?
i think that's a good idea. but wouldn't that invalidate the feeds screen?
