First off all, very nice app. Thanks for that!

Like others I would like to activate floating touch with a short cut. So the short cut could be used in lmt or with a swipe gesture from nova or apex launcher.

And there seems to be a little "bug" in the "button assign menu". It seems that the descriptions of "Clear Memory" and "Menu" are reversed. See attached screenshot.

To the Developer................I paid for the Pro version (see my previous post) but since I updated to 4.2.2 last night it is now asking me to pay again?

This is the only app that is requesting re-payment.

Any ideas?
Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

Should be the Google Play Store's bug, we do not request re-payment.

Actually, the user could not re-payment, the play store will told you that you have brought it.

Thanks.

Hi,

Wow, a serious bug, do you know how to reproduce it?

Thanks.

From what I can remember I moved the point because it was in the way then later on I realised it was missing so I started the app again from the app drawer.

I seem to remember this happened a few times.

Is there some way to make the point disappear which I'm doing without realising?

I just found out a couple of minutes ago that double tapping the point would bring up recent apps lol

I think Floating Touch is a great idea to avoid too much complexity in the notification shade, where several other apps can put shortcuts. It's better if the notification shade is for notifications only :)

I have some feature requests. I would gladly pay for these features as part of the Pro option.
  • Be able to use app shortcuts (not widgets) as well as apps on the panel. It would be useful to be able to go direct to selected functions for applications already provided with shortcuts
  • Add a shortcut/system option for Android (a) alarm setting screen, (b) sync settings and (c) mobile data settings. I think many people frequently use these settings too
  • Control the opacity of the panel (like you can already do with the floating button). With many apps, sometimes the panel is not clear if the app behind uses similar colours, so I need the panel less transparent
  • Be able to substitute my own (user defined/'DIY') icon for each app position on the panel (set a DIY icon for each position on the panel as well as setting the app?). Users can share best icons they have made. This can also make the panel look very professional with all the icons with similar style.

All these features will also make the Pro option more valuable.

Do you think these ideas are useful/have merit?

Great, but still could receive some improvements! ;)

IMHO, the floating point is much too sensitive, most times it starts moving and doesn't open the menu like expected! I would suggest that a long-press starts the moving and that the point is disabled by moving the point across the screen border.

Nevertheless, my favorite tool at the moment! :thumbup:

Amazing APP :good::good::good:

@ Developer,

Would it be possible in the future to give a name to a folder in: " choose action-new folder "

For uses who use Floating Touch everyday, he/she would add many icons to the panel. Obviously, current design of folder is not easy to use. We will try to figure out a better way to optimize it.

Thanks a lot for this suggestion. :)

Please also add the ability to set your own icon for folders similar how you have for the customization of the float point icon...

    FAQ

    Why I cannot uninstall Floating Toucher?
    The "Lock screen" feature requires activating device administrator, you have to deactivate it in security settings before installing.
    There are two ways to uninstall it:
    1. Open floating toucher, go to settings page, find the "Uninstall" option. (Recommend)
    2. First, go to "System settings" -> "Security settings" -> "Device administrators" deactivate "Floating Toucher", then uninstall Floating Toucher in a normal way.


    How can I hide the floating button temporarily?
    When you are doing something in full screen mode, and you don’t want to share the screen with any other apps, Please Long Press the floating button, to hide it to the status bar of the phone.
    And if you need it back to screen, please tap it in the status bar, then Floating Toucher can be launched easily.

    Want to be able to show the toucher with anything i want (including gesture) that's why i talked about making a shortcut (so other apps can call it)

    Regards

    Yes. This. Either a shortcut or activity or intent so it can be called up any way one wants... Gesture, launcher, pie...

    What about 'call actions' like quick call a person or quick sms? I think it would be a nice feature.:laugh:

    In next release, Floating touch will support to add shortcut to panel. You can find "direct call" to a person in shortcut.

    Most of android ROM support this kind of shortcuts. :)

    Please stay tuned.

    BTW. using photo as point is a good idea :)
