See how it works

Floating Mute — Switch it on once
01

Switch it on once

One toggle enables the floating view. An optional percentage label shows the current volume right on the button.

Floating Mute — One tap, instant silence
02

One tap, instant silence

Tap the button and the volume drops to 0%; tap again and it returns to where it was. Works over video calls and fullscreen apps.

Floating Mute — Put it where it never gets in the way
03

Put it where it never gets in the way

Drag the button anywhere on screen — over a lesson, a call or a game — and it stays there.

Floating Mute — Follows the real volume
04

Follows the real volume

If you change the volume with the hardware keys, the button adapts automatically, so it never lies about the state.

Floating Mute — Everything explained in-app
05

Everything explained in-app

A short how-to covers the gestures: tap to mute, drag to move, long-press to disable, and control it from the notification.
