About this app

You read a message, think ‘I’ll get back to that’, and carry on with your day. Sound familiar? Floatify helps you remember to come back to it.

Floatify turns selected notifications into small floating bubbles, called floats. They appear over other apps, so you don’t have to keep opening your notification shade. You choose what deserves your attention and when to come back to it.

A TAP, THEN IT’S YOUR CALL
Tap a float to read the message. Long message? The content scrolls inside a colored frame that stays in place.
• Reply from the float when the original notification supports quick replies.
• Snooze for a short break, a custom duration, or a date and time you choose.
• Delete the float when you’re done.
The Snoozed Floats list shows what’s coming back and when.

SIMPLE OR ADVANCED: YOU CHOOSE
Floatify has two modes. Start right away with Simple, and switch to Advanced when you want the full toolbox.

SIMPLE: FREE AND READY IN A MINUTE
Everything you need to keep important messages in sight:
• One switch per app decides which notifications become floats.
• Read, reply, snooze or delete straight from the float.
• A calm, consistent look that works from the first minute.
• Sound and vibration settings.
• No account needed.
Simple is supported by a small ad banner at the bottom of the app.

ADVANCED: THE FULL FLOATIFY
A one-time in-app purchase: no subscription and no ads. Advanced adds a lot:
• Your own reminders, plus floats made from shared text.
• Google Calendar import and synchronization, with a shape per calendar.
• Float synchronization between your devices through Google Drive.
• Grouping by app or calendar, with a counter and message browsing.
• Make it yours: shape (even per app), emoji or app icon, animation, size, speed and transparency.
• Dock floats at the screen edge or in the sidebar, and keep snoozed floats there with a countdown.
• Quiet hours for the moments you want peace.
• Home-screen widgets in light or dark style, with adjustable transparency.
• Statistics.
• Support for your Wear OS watch.

You can restore a previous purchase. If you already used Floatify before this purchase option was introduced, you keep access to Advanced. Google synchronization requires linking your Google account. Both modes remember their own settings, so you can switch between them whenever you like.

PERMISSIONS, ONE STEP AT A TIME
• Display over other apps lets floats appear above other apps.
• Notification access turns notifications from your chosen apps into floats.
• Usage access helps hide floats in apps you’ve excluded.
Floatify guides you through setup. Google connections are optional.

Floatify is made by one developer in the Netherlands. Have an idea or spotted something that could be better? You’re welcome to get in touch. Your feedback helps the app grow.

A little reminder, at your pace.
