Download Floating Assistant 1.1 on Windows PC – 2.6 MB

This app uses the Device Administrator permission.

Floating Assistant Features:
★ Its icon floats above all apps, which makes it accessible anywhere regardless of which app is opened
★ 4 convenient settings at your fingertips
★ Great personalization and customization options (paid feature)
★ No Ads completely
The developer understands the ugliness of ads within apps


Why such a unique set of options
★ Unlike other Assistive Touch apps in this store, the developer understands that most phone makers already included many quick settings in the notifications bar (airplane mode, brightness etc)
★ Thus, duplicating such settings is redundant and unrequired
★ These 4 settings which are in Floating Assistant had been carefully thought of, and are rarely seen in default quick settings menu


The 4 main buttons
★ Lock screen - This instantly locks the screen (similar to pressing the power button). It's aim is to reduce the stress on the power button of the phone
★ Volume Control - In android, pressing the volume up/down buttons only could change the current volume which you are using at that time. This, allows you to change any volume levels within your entire phone.
★ Memo - Allows you to take notes on-the-go. Take down phone numbers, jot down an idea which happened to come across your mind. It's uses are limitless.
★ Camera - Quickly opens the camera app. The main feature would be the paid feature, where this button can instantly snap pictures. Most people missed the picture-perfect moment when scrambling to find the camera app lost within the 'all apps' section.


Why should I download Floating Assistant?
★ In fact, the developer doesn't convince you to download this app. Get this app if you feel that this set of options suits you.
★ Furthermore, as this app is free, it doesn't hurt trying it out. However please take note that such options are unique, and may not suit everybody's liking
