About Lock Message
This app is a fork of "Circle Message" created by Michał Prędotka and is available under BSD License. I have ported his code to the latest framework ubuntu-sdk-20.04 (focal) and optimized (heavily modified) it as per the current Clickable template.
After adding the custom message, If you do not see the messsage on "Lock Screen", then its probably hidden under the usermetrics queu. Please double tap on currenlty shown text inside the circle to activate your custom message.
You might need to double tap couple of times to see the message. Also, be patient on double tapping as this also depends upon the sensitivity of your touch screen. Text messages inside the circle are usually very sensitive.
For more help, please reach me out on GitHub. See this pull request for further help

The current version is tested on Redmi Note 9 Pro and I am looking forward to feedback on other devices from fellow users.
This app helps you write a message that will appear inside Circle on the lock screen. This feature can be useful as you can add custom messages to your UT lock screens.
Some use cases where this can be useful.
- You can add a custom message with an Email address so that if you have lost your phone then someone who found that phone can reach you via Email.
- You can also leave a message with a second phone number so that someone found your phone can call you to share the location of your phone.
- You can add a custom message for someone who will have custody of your phone e.g. when you are leaving home or if you have temporarily changed the passcode for someone else to log in to your phone.

Works fine on FP4. Thanks for the good work! Would it be possible to make multiple lock messages to be available on the lock screen that rotate in intervals?

Works great on Volla. Thank you for this useful app. Need to double tap to get the message to appear again in the circle after a reboot, but probably normal.
