so i was out with a few friends a few nights ago at a restaurant that was quite loud and i had my phone sitting on the table and i noticed that whenever i get a text it only vibrate and makes a sound which is good, but in a loud environment i cant feel or hear the alert. is there a way to have the screen light up whenever i get a text?
 
I was just going to ask this question.

Is there an app or widget that will will notify on a text when the screen is off? Like the OP my phone sits on silent all day at work, I do not see the light flash. If I had something that would pop on when I get a text it would be helpful instead of me touching the screen every 15 mins.
I'm new to Android after a long time with Apple, all help is appreciated.
