Bottom notifications

Reach your notifications with your thumb, not a stretch.

Bottom notifications puts a notification shade at the BOTTOM of your screen, where your hand already is. Tap the small floating button and your notifications slide up - easy to read, easy to reach, and easy to make your own.

YOUR PRIVACY COMES FIRST

- Your notifications never leave your device. The app never sends them anywhere.
- No ads. No trackers. No analytics.
- No account, no sign-up, no email.

It needs notification access and permission to display over other apps. Everything else, including the Accessibility Service below, is optional - you are always in control.

HOW THIS APP USES THE ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE
Bottom notifications includes an optional Accessibility Service. It is OFF by default; every other feature works fully without it. Turned on, it powers four things:
- Per-app behaviour: it detects which app is in the foreground, so the button can hide or move aside in the apps you choose.
- Keyboard awareness: it detects when the on-screen keyboard is showing and where it sits, so the button moves out of the way while you type.
- Navigation gestures: it performs Back, Home, and Recent-apps actions when you assign one to a button tap or swipe.
- Rule actions: Android allows rules to press a notification's own buttons, open it, or reply only while it is on. It taps nothing and reads nothing extra.

It checks only which app is in front and whether the keyboard is showing. It does NOT read, log, record, collect, or transmit the content of your screen, your keystrokes, or any personal data, and nothing it observes ever leaves your device. You can turn it off at any time in Android's Accessibility settings.

A NOTIFICATION MANAGER, NOT JUST A SHADE
Rules that watch for the notifications you describe, then act for you:
- Silence, snooze or dismiss them, or hold them for delivery at times you choose.
- Let the first message through and keep the rest quiet, so a busy chat interrupts you once.
- Get a reminder later, a code copied, or a notification's own buttons pressed for you.
- Alert differently for what matters: your own sound, vibration patterns, a torch flash, or read aloud.
- Match on app, words, category, importance, group chats, contacts, weekday times, and what the phone is doing - then combine, nest or invert.
- Twenty ready-made templates; rules run top to bottom, drag to reorder.

SNOOZE AND ACTION BUTTONS ON EVERY ROW
- Snooze in one tap, from a list of durations including a custom one of your own.
- Actions lists what a notification really holds - a code, a link, a number, the message - to open, copy or share.
- Long-press a row for app-wide choices: pin, group, exclude, or make a rule.

A SHADE THAT FITS YOU
- Design the button - size, shape, corners, colours, border, position - with app icons around it, a live count, or the latest icon.
- Style every part of a notification, and browse as a clean list or a playful "ferris wheel".
- Save your look, back it up, restore it any time.

HELPFUL EVERYDAY FEATURES
- Swipe to dismiss, tap to open, reply from the shade, and a media player with seek, shuffle, repeat and album art.
- Group a chatty app into ONE row and clear the lot with one swipe. On only for the apps you choose.
- Choose which apps appear, and pin favourites to the top or bottom.
- Do Not Disturb aware, so quiet time stays quiet.

GESTURES, SHORTCUTS AND WIDGETS
- A tap and four swipes on the button, each doing what you choose; group them into "modes".
- Open the shade from the home screen, lock screen, Tasker or MacroDroid.
- Widgets: a full list (lock screen too), slim icon strips, and a tiny count.

A FEW THINGS TO KNOW
- Available in 50 languages.
- Works on Android 10 and newer.
- Some phones close background apps. If the button disappears, the in-app tips help.

Bottom notifications is for anyone who wants their notifications closer to hand, styled their way, and kept on their own device. Give it a try and make it yours.
