Messages overlay app

This app handles the display of messages and message notifications as an overlay pop up.

It is a GUI replacement for the messages apps.

Messages are ephemeral and not stored on the Bangle.

Usage

Close app by tapping the X and scroll by swiping. The border of the pop up changes color if the Bangle is locked. The color depends on your currently active theme.

Firmware hint

Current stable firmware draws incorrect colors for emojis. Nightly firmware builds correct this.

Low memory mode

If free memory is below 2000 blocks, the overlay automatically only uses 1 bit depth. Default uses roundabout 1300 blocks, while low memory mode uses about 600.
