In recent times, smartphone companies have been competing to stretch the screens of our mobile devices as farther as possible without boosting the overall form factor of the phones. If you ask me, this is an excellent move since we now have mobile phones with screen sizes as large as 6.5(+) inches, but in a compact and simple to handle form factor.
However, as you already know, good things come at a price, and one of the costs to pay to purchase a mobile device like that is the removal of the highly popular LED Notifications from these smartphones. This might not seem like a big issue for some phone users, though, since they can quickly press the power button on their devices to confirm if they have any new notifications.
Some phone owners even prefer the latest “Tap to wake” and “Lift to Wake” features that are present on most phones nowadays, so no stress for them. As soon as they pick up their mobile device, it lights up the display, and they can see any info of their choosing without needing to press the button and without unlocking it.
Unfortunately, for fans of Infinix and Tecno, the Infinix S5 and Tecno Camon 12 Air are one of the devices set to be ripped off their native LED notifications system. Not to worry, though, this tutorial will show you how to set up a creative custom LED notifications system on these mobile phones with their camera punch-hole cutouts for those who cherish the native LED notifications system.

How Can I Set Up Beautiful Hole Punch LED Notifications On Infinix And Tecno Camon?:
- Head to the Google Play Store and get the “AOE (Always On Edge)” application downloaded. If you are too busy to head to the Play Store, just click here.
AOE (Always On Edge)is an easy always-on display application that was originally developed for the Samsung Galaxy S10 devices. However, it works on every smartphone. Like I wrote earlier, it is an always-on display app, but this time, we will set the always-on display feature to show only around the hole-punch camera cutouts of the Infinix S5 and Tecno Camon 12 Air devices.
- After installing the application, grant it access to the necessary permissions it asks for.
