Hey there!
I really enjoys using your app! I've even bought the premium version.
The animations keep getting smoother and there are so many customisation options by now!
Wouldn't it be awesome if the pop-up would adjust to the color pallet of the android material you?
Just a thing I'd recommend :)

Can you add a clock in between or something in between? I prefer this long pill but it seems empty in between.

I love this app, and have a suggestion:
When always showing the popup in small, why not showing the energy level of the phone (like various energy ring apps).

I found a bit annoying bug. when the dynamic spot reappears after being hidden because the smartphone was in landscape even if the dynamic spot does not need to be displayed because no notification has arrived, for example its touch zone is still active and I therefore cannot access my notifications This brings a new bug, that is to say that I can click on this area to enlarge the dynamic spot and it displays the last notification (I specify that this only happens when the smartphone come back from landscape mode and the dynamic spot is not supposed to be displayed even if the smartphone is in portrait because it has nothing to display so it is not displayed but its touch zone remains active)

I want you to make the animation of the application smoother and make two separate animations for auto expand and no auto expand, not as the first and second steps of one animation.

Do you have "show always" enabled? Cannot reproduce this

smoothness depends on you device.

If you have a 120hz device like S23 it all super smooth. On 60 Hz it may not be as fluid
Thanks dev for the comment. My device had 144Hz refresh rate , i set 60 Hz for saving battery. Today set 144 and tested dynamic spot, i have to say it's super super fluid and smooth, the visualizer, the transitions , everything better in higher refresh rate

in theory this is possible, but normally you have the battery percentage in statusbar already? so in dont know if its worth implementing
i can hide my battery percentage and the icon on my phone, but i also don't perfer having it on dynamic island.

i also have another request, you can put a gif instead of png when device is charging on the dynamic island, it would be cool. and a bluetooth green animation on dynamic island when connecting to a bluetooth. the animations better be gif so it doesn't need a whole work, its just replacing png files. i also wanted fo configure your app to add gifs but after converting it back to apk, it doesnt install anymore im so bad at this lol.


edit: i found thats not easy to make, stay with the png if its hard.

Hello there,
At First, I Love this App. But one Problem I have with it. When I listen to music, the Audiovisulizer Shows just some points in a row. Please fix that.

Whats about the Island interacts with Fingerprint and face detection on the Lockscreen?
Best greetings

My phone supports 120hz, I mean, you can optimize the animations to make auto expand smoother, rather than popping up and expanding later. Alternatively, you can do separate animations for those with and without auto expand.Thanks

Managed to find a way to make the app work almost all the time (atleast from my experience)

Turning off Battery Saving Mode should make the app almost not get killed by Android anymore since they tend to be more aggressive to killing apps that are in the background when it's on.

going to Accessibility > Process Manager and deep cleaning all the apps open in the background should also help to make DynamicSpot still be in the background as there's more RAM that the app can use. You can also go to Accessibility > Recent Task Manager and then locking the app will also increase that level of sustainability in making the app still be open in the background, this will not work by turning on Battery Saving Mode as the phone will turn off all locked (not Privacy Locked) apps since it'll easily end up killing the app.

App Quick Freeze will kind of help out on RAM more too since it'll freeze all the apps that are in the background that you selected. (Battery > More Battery Settings > App Quick Freeze) Its obvious that you won't select DynamicSpot for this.

And lastly, turning on Background Activity and Auto-Launch will also help out so you can actually just make it run in the background freely. Auto-Launch will also help you out if you ever don't want the hassle to opening the app.

Some other stuff in Developer Options is the limit for Background Process should be at most 4 Processes although i am not sure if this will help out that much since it's already set up as Standard but it should help you out on just making sure that it still works in the background.

The phone I'm using is the Realme C15 with the latest software update (RMX2180_11_C.13 @ *Android 11*)

4GB RAM (uses @ around 3.1GB of RAM)
64GB ROM

For other users who uses other models, I'm sorry but you have to figure it out yourself (and maybe familiarize with your phone more) and also this only really works in Realme, Oppo and OnePlus (I'm not sure about OnePlus)

i found a bug, when i enable auto expand and select all and try perview on the app it does not show the dynamic island anymore, even after disabling auto expand it still not showing but after reopening the app its fixed, idk if its only me or not.




can you also make the music icon to get smaller when paused an fixed again after playing it again. watch the video above its only 279
kb.

also Position > General > Edge Rounding, it doesn't fit phones like S23 Ultra. need less than 10%, and if you get less than 15% it doesn't look like dynamic island anymore, even the small popup turns into a triangle and the show always look like a sqaure not a circle anymore.

    Hello, is there any solution so the dynamic spot can stay at the camera hole when the phone is in horizontally?
    If there isn't, can you make it possible?
    Like, keep the dynamic spot in the camera place and rotate icons and so depending on which side of the phone is facing to the ground or something. Nice work by the way :)

    Hey there, the app is fantastic. I tried it when it first came out and took a break from it. Coming back you've added so many useful features that make it feel way more natural.

    For additional appearance options, would it be possible to add the ability to customize the small popup vs the expanded popup. For example, I'm on an S22U that has pretty squared off corners of the screen. When I'm small popup, the more rounded corners look great but when it expands it doesn't match the radius of the screen so it looks weird.

    It would be great to adjust the radius of the smaller popup and the expanded popup separately to match the screen design more closely. I could also see it being beneficial to allow adjusting the spacing on the sides of the expanded to allow more room between the popup and the bezels when expanded.

    Great work and thanks for an amazing feature!

    here's some feture request.!


    I didn't write most of these and they are copy paste from the requests you missed, i i edited the copy pastes for easier to understand. 7, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14 are writen by me


    1) when playing music, a waveform animation would be great.

    2) Ignore silent notifications

    3) a mix between your style of notification and classic One Ui popup, to keep a preview of the message.

    4) Snooze Button for notifications in expanded view.

    5) Option to automatically disable Dynamic Island when an app is in full screen, e.g. YouTube.

    6) tapping opens the app and holding expands, dobule tapping should hide or live activites or more...

    7) silent/vibrate/sound event.

    8) visualization like you did for music, for voice recording, waveform better

    9) i want small circle smaller because it's still a little big for me

    10) support for Monet (Material You) for the background and perhaps background that changes based on Dark and Light mode

    11) Dark mode, i really want it, light mode hurts my eyes on dark places...

    12) tapping on Live Activites opens apps list and holding screen shot, what about if we double tap it shows the shutdown options?

    13) when power saving mode is enabled then animations should be disabled, would be better if we choose when it should enable (must be an option because some people don't want animations to stop)

    14) animations on visualizer are way too smooth, it looks like visualizer is 1 second away from the song (correct me if it doesn't make any sense because i'm bad at english)

    15) camera hole should stay aligned when the phone is horizontal (top liked request in this past 30 days {today is 2023 14 mars} )


    FIXES :

    1) i want to switch apps to another app with live activites but apps that are on SD Card cannot be on the list and it causes bugs, would be better if fixed in the future.

    2) Show as notch still expands and unexpands like the circle front camera, fixing that makes this app better for notch users.

    Edit: I edited this post to fix my mistakes SORRY. because two of these requests was the same thing.

    EDIT: New requests added (2023 Mar 14)

    EDIT: One more request added literally 35 minutes later😂

    Add this feature please
    In case of multiple notification and/or events
    Add option:-
    * Show letest
    *Show them all
    Swipe left or right will remove the preview of notification . and in case there is more notifications next one will be displayed
    multi notification support may get added in a future release, but as the app is used on the fly you will normally no have too many paralles notification
    3
    POLL:
    1. Should notifications of all apps be enabled by default in dynamic spot?
    2. Or should it stay like now, when all apps are disabled by default?
    Or 3. All apps enabled by default but with a toggle to select all/select none.

    Hi there,

    with the release of iPhone 14 Pro Apple introduced Dynamic Island.

    As i already created a notification light app for Samsung or Pixel phones (aodNotify) i tried to port the app to something like Dynamic Island.

    In android we have no camera islands, but camera spots / cutouts. So that's when dynamicSpot was born :)


    With dynamicSpot you can easily get the iPhone 14 Pro Dynamic Island feature on your device! dynamicSpot gives you Dynamic Island's mini multitasking feature, making it easier to access recent notifications or phone events.

    Just tap on the little black popup to open the displayed app, long press the popup to expand it and view more details.

    iPhone's Dynamic Island is not customizable, but dynamicSpot is! You can change interaction settings, select when to show or hide the popup or which apps should appear.

    As dynamicSpot uses Android's notification system it is compatible with almost all apps, like messaging notification, timer apps and even music apps!
    So if you e.g. start a timer, dynamicSpot will show you the running time.


    The app is in a public beta currently and will be further optimized. Animations may not be super smooth and not all apps be compatible currently.
    But im working on it :)
