Notification Right at Lock Screen

Now you can access to all notification in lockscreen, it dosent matter if Lockscreen is security protected still all notification can be accessed and removed from both lockscreen and notification bar, just by swiping right to left(default)

Active Display

Active display is and brilliant feature available on Moto phone, that turns the display on as you take your phone out from your pocket and off it when you put it back, its only downside is it consumes little more battery.

Quick Launch

Navigation bars with add-ons and quick launch is also available which is highly cutomizable,
One can decide shortcut as apps, utilities, contact(single or phonebook), WA direct contact.
One can also chance width, transparency of Navigation Bar and add more buttons to it like screenshot.

Quick Shortcuts and addon

Interchageable Navigation Buttons

Powerful Power Menu

Power menu got a lot of feature just like navigation bar, here too one can add different apps, contact and utility tools, One can also change oder according to him considering looks and utility.

Floating Mode

Ahhh, floating mode this is another thing i love, In Android Kitkat Status bar is accessible all time, floating mode is plus point. You can read full message during a game without leaving the game or Youtube, you just have to pull the notification bar then hold the notification, then click floating mode, it just not only work for messages but anything shown in notification.

RAM and PIE Menu

RAM status can be directly accessed from recent panel and old PIE menu also available here, in which like other one can add app, contact shortcut, change dimensions and colours.

ROM feature may vary from build to build and Model to Model.
