Add notifications in your wallpaper

Notification Bubbles is a live wallpaper for Android that turns your phone notifications into bubbles that float gently around on the background of your homescreen, even when the phone is locked. To access any notification you just have to touch it – which also makes the bubble burst.

Float-ifications

Notification Bubbles reads notifications from popular apps and summarizes them in bubbles floating gently upwards through the background of your phone.

The list of supported services isn’t huge, but does hit up all the main things you would want – Facebook, Gmail, Twitter, and Instagram, along with basic phone functions like missed calls and SMS.

Customizable bubbles

It’s quick and easy: just click on the notification bubble, and it opens. You can change the color and number of bubbles and control any bursting sound effects you may (or may not) want.

Of course before any of this you do have to connect it to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and/or Google – all of which can be easily handled in the options screen.

Don’t let me burst your bubble

Notification Bubbles is fun, but impractical. And, like any live wallpaper, it will quickly eat its way through your battery. But of all the animated backgrounds this is perhaps the most useful: check it out, it might be what you were looking for.
