Description
SoundHUD is a highly customizable volume panel replacement that doesn't require root access. And maybe best of all: It comes with a true silent mode for Lollipop users!
What's in the box: • Multiple styles - choose between an expandable volume panel, a statusbar volume panel, or just a thin line that stays out of your way • Lollipop silent mode - tired of the lack of a true silent mode for Lollipop? Yeah, so are we! • Long press actions - launch any app simply by long-pressing one of the volume buttons • No root required - leave the drill at home: no root, no Xposed - keep that sweet, sweet warranty! • Volume stream lock - got a media tablet? Turn on volume stream lock to always adjust the music volume instead of having to deal with a useless ringer volume • ...and much more!
Like Lollipop's design and simplicity? It sure is swell, but it seems the stock volume panel didn't get the memo - if you've tried getting Lollipop to shush while still getting woken up in the morning, I'm pretty sure you were on the verge of feeding your phone to Rusty (pro-tip: plastic doesn't make a very good dog treat!). Enter SoundHUD, which comes with a true silent mode for Lollipop, an expandable volume panel with separate, draggable volume sliders for every volume stream (ringer, music, notifications, alarms, in-call volume), and much more!
Silent mode HOW-TO 1. Go to System settings -> Sound & notification -> Interruptions 2. Turn OFF all priority interruption switches 3. Get up, do a little dance, and enjoy the silence! No more calls, notifications, reminders - just alarms!
What's this funny "Accessibility"-business?! To recognize when you press the volume keys and to auto-hide the default system volume panel, the app needs access to the "Accessibility" service. While we agree that the built-in warning sounds mighty scary - fret not: The app doesn't have Internet access and therefore can't phone home! Hello? Hello? Anyone? No? Oh well...

Only app that works for me that fixes the annoying default ringer with volume buttons. But when changing volume on lockscreen the bar dissappears straight away. Please fix
★★★★★
It works pretty well for me, except that it doesn't hide the default volume slider for certain outputs, like Bluetooth. This only happens while I'm listening to media though. When Bluetooth media is paused, only the SoundHUD slider appears, which is good. Please fix this 🙂
★★☆☆☆
You got rid of most of the features from noyze and use this for money. The full version of noyze has all features unlocked

Why this app needs to observe every word i type including my PASSWORDS and CREDIT CARD DETAILS! Don't install such a hacker!!!!
★★☆☆☆
Very suspicious permission. When the accessibility is enabled you can see text we type, like credit card info, explain yourself, please.
