Comments on Volume Control (with widget) for Android

★★★★★ Odes Odes · Jun 14, 2025

Does what it described and no intrusive ads. Only thing its missing is a slider, perhaps an option to make the systems' volume pop up when interacting with the notif/widget

★★★★☆ Anas Youssef · Aug 19, 2024

This needs in-call volume control, and alarm volume control + the option to adjust which appears on volume controller in notification bar.

★★★★★ Jibreel Alban · Jan 1, 2026

I use this app with widget because my volume keys broke. This is very excellent alternative. Thank you

★★★★☆ Thomas James · Aug 24, 2024

The floating widget doesn't have a mute button? I have physical up/down volume buttons. I don't see the point. At least the notification has quick mute, so I guess I can stick with that.

★★☆☆☆ Consultant BH · Apr 3, 2025

The app is very good the problem is I don't have control of the volume buttons on my screen I want them to be there and if I don't, I will remove them I need control of the volume buttons at all time

★★☆☆☆ AbuDhifaf · Oct 26, 2024

Really cool. In case the screen is locked, need add ability to choose who will appear automatically as default Control the rise and fall of music or ringtone. Also I suggest that the division of the degree of rise and fall of sound be followed by numbers from one to 15. This is better and easier for the general concept than a percentage. After you fix that, I will vote number five immediately. THANK YOU SO MUCH…

★☆☆☆☆ JC Vela · Apr 30, 2026

It'promising but when you clear the notifications, the volume controls widget is also cleared, so you have to reload the app every time you clear notifications

★☆☆☆☆ denmark eight · Jun 27, 2024

It's an okay app, but why do I need to manually start it every boot? Please make an option to have it run automatically on startup. *Edit: So O installed this on an old phone (Samsung A70) and it has an "Automatically Start on Boot" option. Why I don't have this on this phone, I have no idea.
