Brain Dock: Desktop Taskbar

Syntac LLC

About this app

Turn your Android phone or tablet into a desktop computer for getting work done with Brain Dock.

Brain Dock brings a flexible floating taskbar, a unified Start Menu and an instant app switcher, designed for mobile computing, tablets and cyberdecks.

KEY FEATURES
• Floating desktop taskbar: reach your favourite apps, pinned apps and running apps from anywhere, without going back to the home screen.
• Integrated Start Menu: all your apps in one menu with quick search.
• Full customisation: put the dock at the bottom, top or side, edge to edge, full width or as a rounded floating dock. Choose the Flat Taskbar, Glass Pill or Side Strip style, a light or dark theme, and auto-hide.
• Smart orientation handling: smooth switching between portrait and landscape.
• Windowed apps: open apps in resizable floating windows on devices that support freeform multi-window.
• Virtual Mouse: an on-screen cursor turns the whole screen into a laptop-style touchpad. One finger moves the cursor, two fingers scroll, tap and hold to drag and drop. Tap with four fingers to turn it off.
• File manager: browse and open files in the folders you choose.
• Back, Home and Recents buttons right on the dock.
• Lightweight: built to go easy on memory and battery.

Great with an external keyboard and mouse, desktop mode, portable monitors and cyberdeck builds.

PERMISSIONS
