Squawk: Reminders on Unlock
There are loads of reminder or to-do apps on the Play Store but none of them offers as much functions as Squawk does. The app can even display a toast notification every time you unlock your device for a task/reminder. Must try.
Squawk increases your productivity with alerts that appear when you unlock your phone. This allows you to easily stay on track for day-to-day tasks, something that traditional to-do list apps fail to deal with.
Your device may require at least a slide lock for this application to work. If you use a non-standard launcher I cannot guarantee the app will work properly.

Microsoft account
Two-step authentication is one of the best things you can do to make sure your account will stay secure. Google has got the Google authenticator app available for a long time, and now Microsoft has published its own two-step verification app in Play Store for Microsoft accounts. This one works slightly differently from the Google authenticator. It just shows a notification on your phone when your Microsoft account needs to be verified.
Sometimes, Microsoft needs to verify your identity to help make sure that you (and only you) have access to your account. The Microsoft account app makes this easy, and you no longer need to enter security codes from text messages or authenticator apps! Instead, you’ll get a notification when you need to verify your identity. Just tap to approve, and job done.
The Microsoft account app also works even if:
• You’ve turned on two-step verification for your account. You can still verify your identity with a single tap.
• Your device is offline. The app also generates security codes that you can use to verify your identity instead.
