Red, Yellow?

Thanks for making this App available, but what does the Red dot indicate compared to the Yellow? A Key would be nice.

This App Is Awesome!

I have absolutely nothing negative to say about it. I love that the notifications comes with a pre-installed sound of “thunder” that you can set for your notifications action sound.
