Comments on Overlays - Floating Launcher for Android
★★★★☆psydex· Dec 5, 2025
One of my overlays is out of reach, and I can't modify It's settings because I can't see/click on the overlay cogwheel. Allow a dedicated menu that lists all active overlays and a dedicated button to reach each overlay's settings from there. I'll buy PRO when this is fixed.

Very useful, now Google Maps has removed audio controls from navigation, this app allows me to overlay my podcast widget on the map
★★★★★Soyer Teje· Dec 12, 2024
Great idea, exactly what I needed. I own a fold phone made for floating apps, but this is something else. I can add a widget as a small overlay always visible. The sidebar is a nice touch. Triggers on specific events has a lot of potential, although they lack some customization, like Bluetooth connectivity by device to be able to choose if it triggers when connected or in the other way around. Anyway, now I can see what I need at all times. Thank you!

Brightness toggle is inaccurate. Its full brightness means 10% of the actual brightness which I think is a bug. Fix this and I will reinstall the app. The rest of the app is flawless (as per my usage). Keep it up 👍

You can't minimize a full-screen image overlay. Everytime you long press & try to minimize it it just closes the image instead because the minimize & close both buttons are down so when you long press & drag a full screen overlay, It closes the IMAGE instead....EVERY TIME. PLEASE FIX IT. ATLEAST MAKE AN OPTION TO DISABLE THE "CLOSE BUTTON" SO THAT ONLY MINIMIZE BUTTON STAYS THERE.

Major bugs & feature-limitations on a Galaxy S24 Ultra One UI 6.1 Android 14 Bug: "Long press" is broken, so settings for modules cannot be access. Most modules therefore have no accessible settings. Those with initial-config windows — like choosing an image for the Image module — require the app be uninstalled to change. Issue: GIFs do not animate in the image module. If you purchase the video module, they can't be opened.

Scam app. Doesn't actually launch, just makes the fool out of you by giving you literally a blank screen for an overlay which they have gotten the audacity to name dummy. Well I'm the dummy for paying these scamsters 5 euros.
