Qualcomm Inc., the world leader in smartphone microchips has released the Snapdragon Glance (Beta) application for android devices which allows users to view important notifications, see when their next appointment is scheduled, check the weather, launch relevant apps and contact people directly from the lock screen. aesthetically it might not be the best, but provides a useful set of features.
The new Snapdragon Glance app is currently in Beta version and hence supports only a handful of devices powered by snapdragon SoC.
How The App Works –
The BatteryGuru application from Qualcomm analyzes how you use your phone and claims to improve the battery life of your device. The new Glance (Beta) app from Qualcomm uses that same usage data to build an intelligent lock screen.
