About PopNotch: Dynamic Island
A dynamic island for Android that lives around your camera notch. The song you're playing, the call coming in, the message you've been waiting for: they appear right around the camera, and slip away when you're done.
━━━━━━━━━━
MADE TO FIT
PopNotch finds your camera and wraps it exactly. Fine-tune it once and it looks like part of the screen.
MADE TO MOVE
Notifications grow out of the lens and settle back into it. Pull down to open, push up to close. It moves with your finger, so it feels like something you're holding.
MADE TO STAY CALM
One notification at a time, never a pile. Turn off your phone's own pop-ups for any app, and each message arrives just once. If banners feel like too much, keep new messages to a small icon by the camera.
━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT'S INSIDE
♪ Music
• Album art, play, pause, next and previous
• A seek bar you can drag to any second
• Colours that follow the album you're playing
✆ Calls
• Answer or decline from the island
• A small pill keeps the call close while you talk
✉ Messages and notifications
• Notification pop-ups from any app, one at a time
• Reply right in the island, without opening the app
• The reply closes by itself when you switch apps
• Choose how long banners stay, or keep them to a small icon
⏱ Live activities
• Timers counting down by the camera
• Map directions with your next turn
• Deliveries, downloads and charging progress
⇄ Two at once
• A second activity waits as a bubble. Tap it to swap
✦ Fit and style
• Fits punch-hole cameras and notches, with calibration to the pixel
• Classic pure black, or Material You colours from your wallpaper
• Works on foldables, on both screens
• Shows on the lock screen, hides in landscape for videos and games
• Phone pop-ups: switch off duplicate system notification pop-ups, app by app
━━━━━━━━━━
PRIVATE
PopNotch has no internet permission. No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Everything stays on your phone.
━━━━━━━━━━
ABOUT THE PERMISSIONS
Notification access lets your music, calls and messages appear in the island.
Accessibility Service:
Accessibility is the only way Android lets an app draw over every other app. PopNotch uses it for two things: showing the island, and closing a reply you started when you switch to another app. It can't read your screen or what you type, and nothing is collected or shared. You turn it on yourself, and you can turn it off any time in Settings.
━━━━━━━━━━
Made by One Dollar. Small apps, made with care.
