This app brings up Moto Display when the device's proximity sensor detects motion while the screen is off. Plus there are some more features.
Extra features:
1) Music control notification - control music volume directly from Moto Display without touching volume rockers
2) Wave-n-hold for screen off - switch off the screen with the proximity sensor based gesture built in the app, no need to use the power button.
[This app doesn't activate Moto Display (or lock screen) while the device is in the pocket]
