I've also heard there is a xposed module. Any updates on xposed either?

Xposed doesn't work with Lollipop yet, and may not for a while, if ever. Perhaps it will come someday, or perhaps something slightly different will come with similar functionality, but I am not very hopeful.
I am sure the feature will hit custom ROMs eventually. There were some versions of multi-window in custom ROMs in Kitkat and earlier OSes. I am sure that the devs are looking into porting them.

Nope
And might not be.
We can only hope another xposed type mod comes on the scene in the coming months. As has been said, xposed might not get re-written for L. Big job by all accounts.
Personally if a battery % and center clock mod came about, I'll be a happy bunny!
Here's the latest about Xposed for Lollipop. Expect it "soon"!

Excellent news (for some)
Anyone installed xposed and the gravitybox mod on the Lollipop GPE stock rom as yet? Just wondering what if any the bugs are like?
Xposed and Gravitybox are bother in Alpha, the latter was released yesterday.
Hi,
I don't want to start an argument over when/whether/how Xposed will ever run on lollipop, I just have a hypothetical question. If you're gonna hate, please go hate in one if the other threads on the subject.
What I want to know is: IF Xposed is fully ported across to lollipop will the existing modules still work, or will the require rewriting/modifying.
Obviously any modules that require functionality specific to KitKat or other android versions will break, but what about more genetic modules?
Thanks in advance,
Sotolotl
i'm assuming the only person who can answer this is @rovo89..
I think it depends. Some single purpose mods may still work. But the multimods like wanan and gravity box will need a new one because they already have Android specific for Jellybean and kit kat versions. Just my guess.
Xposed API will be the same:

Have you read xda news? If not http://www.xda-developers.com/xposed-framework-for-android-lollipop-is-here/
answer
On lollipop 5.0.2 , xMultiwindow& hallo floating and xprivacy no longer works.
But works youtube background player.
be happy with it !
Hello! I'm on the wonderful new Lollipop alpha build, but none of my modules seem to be doing anything. The ones that do notify me all say that the module is not enabled in the framework app (even though all are, and yes, I rebooted after enabling them). My framework app DOES show that the framework is installed and is the correct version (61). Any ideas?
You're probably going to have to wait a while before those modules get support for the *NEW* OS you're running.

If that's the reason then I'm totally okay waiting a little longer for the modules to be updated. It's just the fact that it's EVERY module (out of seven) doing this, not just one, and the announcement thread said that most modules should be usable with no changes. Okay, thank you!

If you suspect its a failed install, there is another thread with unofficial reports of working modules. You could test one of those if you suspect its your install.
More likely, I suspect its something like http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/hooking-t3030626 which is preventing things like Greenify from noticing they're activated.
While Ahmed's answer wasn't very useful, his point is probably valid. Its a new (alpha) release, so there will be some bumps along the way. Give it time.

Unfortunately not always. Some modules will never get update when developer abandoned module - e.g Snapshare.

I have more or less the same issue, I downloaded the screen off YouTube playback module before it got updated and it didn't work, I installed today's update for "newer android versions" (quoting changlog) and the module now works. Only a small handful of modules work with Lollipop - according to my experiences.
If xposed framework is working now on lollipop under ART, is there a way to use Xposed with kitkat runing ART runtime?
I also want to know
Currently no. Rovo said he MIGHT do this later when he finishes the L version.
A backport would be amazing. Wouldn't the larger user base aid in development?
LumenTeun said:
Are you sure that KitKat ART has a larger userbase than Lollipop? I hardly think so since KitKat defaults to Dalvik and you need to enable developer options to change to ART. Lollipop will eventually become the predominant Android version, so focusing on making it work is probably the best course of action right now, at least in my opinion.

You misread my post. The number of KitKat users is far greater than the number of lollipop users based on the Android distribution numbers as of March 5th. Most users with Xposed installed are fully aware of ART being available for KitKat but, like me, place Xposed above ART in terms of importance. Then there are users, like me, that chose to stay on KitKat because Xposed for ART didn't exist until recently.
Lollipop will become the most widely distributed version of Android, but not for a long while. 41% of the user base is on KitKat while 3% is on Lollipop. If you include builds as far back as Jelly Bean (4.1.x), the user base of 4.x users comprises 83% of all devices. Most of the 43% (4.1.x, 4.2.x, 4.3) are more likely to be upgraded to KitKat than Lollipop. Many of the phones set to be updated to Lollipop are still waiting the OTA while many others won't be receiving anything above 4.4.4. So yes, an ART-enabled Xposed Framework for KitKat will have a much larger user base than Lollipop for a long while.
I also want to know
Sorry, it's unlikely that Xposed will ever be backported to ART for KK. The industry has pretty much left it behind.
Does anyone know if rovo89 has given any news about ART on KitKat and Xposed? Latest answer what I have found is this: "Possibly, ART support could be backported to KitKat, but that’s of less priority." (February 2015)
Lollipop is already "stable" enough. So maybe he could do this while working for Marshmallow?

It's not happening. You can post your questions all you want, keep repeating yourselves. No one is going to waste their time with this.

Get in line. I already asked him to make Xposed for Froyo.

I don't care. rovo, I want Xposed for Eclair, so that I can flash it on my Xperia X8!
The only way I see this happening is if you throw money at rovo to dedicate some time to backport it to KK ART.
100 or 200 dollars might be able to sway him. He's super busy now and I just don't see it happening.
Setup a gofundme or something and see what you can piece together.
Set up whatever, I will donate!

A better option would be to port the KitKat UI to lollipop. anyone tried that yet ?, lolipop UI is a mess
Hello guys ! I was wondering, is it possible to get on our Moto G 2014 snapchat's new functions ?
Thanks in advance ?
snapchat barely works for me
I'm curious about this as well. It says the Lenses feature doesn't really work on older Android devices, but our phone was released just last year. It probably has more to do with the actual specs than anything else though. I've seen people with Galaxy S 5s and iPhone 5s that can't get Lenses to work.
According to comments in Play store the new update is not working on any Android even newest flagmans . Only iOS users can use the new effects,hope they come up with new update so we can have these new features too.
To begin with it didn't work for me, but now it randomly started working lol
It worked for me on Stock rom, but on 5.1 roms didn't. Fortunately there is xposed module called SnapchatLensesEnabler and it work for me on AOSP 5.1. I think it will also work on another roms with xposed installed
