Since I got a phone running Android 8.0 Oreo, the app has been unreliable. Often it does not inhibit the lock screen now.
Completely useless
The app had worked as advertised up until August 2017. Since then, trying to toggle the icon displays "Please connect to the Internet so RedEye can obtain licensing permissions from Google Play," but I can connect just fine. As the developer has recommended to another reviewer, I have reinstalled the app, but no luck. I can still access the app's settings, but changing them shows the same error. For this reason, I strongly recommend against buying this app until the developer addresses this problem, but I would also encourage others who are experiencing the same issue to write reviews, as well.
Clearly written by a professional, few would add an "unload" function unless they really know what they are doing. Very flexible configurations. A godsend to many whose "keep wifi running at all times (wifi calling) option does not really do it right. The addition of no screen display is outstanding - others only dim and waste battery overnight. For under a buck you eliminate the network usage of ads. My Galaxy Light - properly configured to maintain wifi at all times - did not. I now use a Galaxy Avant and if I had known about this earlier would not have had the hassle of moving to a new (better?) device. I was a commercial programmer back in the old "COBOL" days. For you kiddies out there that stands for Common Business Oriented Language. Bottom line: very well thought out - impressive piece of work. UPDATE: This solved "no ring - direct to voicemail" - just by having cpu on.
"Please connect to the internet so RedEye can get license from Google." This DRM is abuse-- nothing else. A connection is not always available.

Hello for last one week I'm continuously getting an error that the app is unable to retrieve license information and it is asking me to connect to the internet while I'm always connected to the internet. Please help fixing this issue.
Seems like not working in note 3 after updated to kitkat 4.4.2
Fantastic app, does what it says on the box! I've been using for a while now in conjunction with Tasker, but only 4 stars for no integration :(
I've used the app for well over a year and it worked perfectly. Then suddenly, after the most recent OS update, it doesn't work at all anymore.
