Re: just me ??
"Available with many (but not all) Lumias - don't know if Android has it - not that I have seen though."
Moto X has active display, that is very similar to glance. There's an app in the play store that will replicate it by replacing the lock screen on any android - you need the right display type for it to not waste your battery though.
I use glance on my 1020 - it's a nice feature, I'd just like a few more configuration options.
