[ANNOUNCE] lens cover reminder
 

Hi,

actually I don't use the camera often, but every time I forget
to close the lens cover. Like others too:

In Extras-devel
is my lens-cover-reminder statusbar plugin. It shows a little icon
while the lens is open. And alerts you by vibration, if you lock the
screen.
I hope it helps others.

regards

Excelent!
Can you add a sound like the notifications one?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] lens cover reminder
 

Brilliant!

I don't know. Sound notification would be a little more
complicated. I think the vibtation alert is enough.
Or do you know a situation where it would be necessary?

I don't want something to interrupt music listening just because I didn't close the lid. Vibration is enough.

What if I take a Photo and let the phone in my desk and not in my hands?
It vibrates when the screens goes black, but how do I noticed that?

Anyways, this is a "must have" app.
I really apreciate your work in this.
Promote to extras-testing and you'll get my vote for sure.

This is a daemon, right? Will this drain my battery, even by a little?

It's a hildon-desktop plugin. It does not launch any additional process.
