Ever missed some important date whereas watching a video? Battery down? Connection dangerous or lost? Expensive Roaming?! Too a lot download?

That's what these overlay apps are for: to display some info all the time, not caring whether or not the app below is a fullscreen app or not. Of course it may overlap other data on the display, that is why it is rather versatile about what information to show, how abbreviated, omitting pointless items (don't inform that your physics instructor...), and a quick-hide feature.

YACO comes from Yet another Clock Overlay - I put clock in brackets, as it started with a clock, however now it grew to an app exhibiting a complete bunch of information! What may the YACO acronym now stand for? I have no idea.

The app is free and was developed for enjoyable and studying.

Displayable objects:

time with and without seconds, date and weekday

battery state, approximate remaining charge/discharge time

GPS data out there with velocity, top, climb/sink price and rely of satellites, coordinates. Fun to watch in a airplane.

✓ there's additionally the connection state:

Wifi: SSID, velocity, frequency, IPV4 address, up-/download indicator, daily or monthly information volume, present up-/download rate

Mobile: connection sort, roaming warning, supplier, signal energy, up-/download indicator, daily or month-to-month data quantity, up-/download rate

inactive Mobile (DualSIM): sign energy, to find a way to see the connection strength of the inactive SIM

AAAAND as just talked about DualSIM help (= Android 5.1): details about the voice SIM: service, signal strength, roaming warning

It is Android 6 permission restrictions aware, so when you get an Android error Screen Overlay Detected, or if you are not in a place to grant a permission by touching the button in the dialog the place you shall grant it, it's easy to temporarily disable YACO for 5 minutes utilizing its notification entry's pause button. It will routinely re-appear after that time. Simple and efficient.

This inconvenience may even be circumvented when you enable YACO to be an accessibility app (using a shortcut link inside the app's Info web page makes it easy). Then it may possibly be careful for the permission dialog and disable itself till it's secure to level out up again. This method you could have an overlay that doesn't intervene with the permission popup. Yet you must belief me that I don't use the behaviour checks for anything except the cover and show for that sole purpose (BTW: I do promise I don't!).

If your gadget has a proximity sensor, overlaying it might possibly disguise YACO in order that the gadgets below are uncovered.

I'd prefer to have suggestions (can be done within the app). This is essential for me.

More info is given at the app's homepage, https://android.chk.digital/yaco/. This app lives and grows and improves using your feedback.

Permissions:

- GPS - properly, for GPS data

- Access Phone State, Network state, Coarse location knowledge: for the information about the data connection, the Android APIs I use want these.

This app makes use of Accessibility Services. Well- only if you select to use the Auto-Hide feature! It is not necessary.
