About this app

Elevate your Android TV experience with TVOverlay – the ultimate app that turns your TV into an information hub like never before. Whether you're a casual viewer or a tech enthusiast, TVOverlay enhances your TV content by overlaying essential information and giving you complete control over its appearance.

Main features:

1. Control:
Manage TvOverlay effortlessly using its companion app, TvOverlay Remote. Alternatively, control it via Rest API or MQTT, making it compatible with Home Assistant and your smart home ecosystem.

2. Notifications:
Receive notifications from multiple sources, including your Android phone (with TvOverlay Remote app), REST API, and Home Assistant. TVOverlay offers three default notification layouts – Default, Minimalist, and Icon Only – to suit your preferences. Premium users can even design their own notification layouts for a truly tailored experience.

3. Clock:
Stay on schedule with our clock feature, and as a premium user, personalize it to match your style. Choose from a variety of colors and text options to make it uniquely yours.

4. Fixed Notifications:
Keep important information at a glance with fixed notifications. These compact alerts remain visible in the corner of your TV screen for a specified time or until you dismiss them.

5. Overlay Background:
Control the ambiance with our background layer, which sits between overlay content and your TV content. Could be used to artifically change the TV brightness without dealing with menus. Premium users enjoy additional customization options.

6. Presets for Efficiency:
Save time and effort with preset configurations. TvOverlay comes with two presets, and premium users can create and save their own. Apply multiple settings at once to streamline your experience.

Version 1.0.4 is available and should work fine on Android TV 14. I will check if different modes for the dark overlay are possible. Thanks for your patience.

please make an option for large font. The notification is too small. Great otherwise.

Hey, you can modify the notification layout on the app TvOverlay Remote, but it is a Premium (paid) feature
