Properly fixes drag and drop issues in Lollipop and moves the start button up a little bit so you can see the haptic feedback option on phones. Also updated API level to 22.

Bugfix 2.0.3

Fixes an issue on some HTC phones where holding down the overlay to move it around or close it would freeze the background interface accepting the drops. Now, if the interface sticks, you can tap where you want to move the interface, or tap the close button to kill it.

Bugfix 2.0.2

Should actually fix the issue with settings migration now. Realistically you'd clear the data and it'd be fixed anyways, but I like to be thorough.

Bugfix 2.0.1

Fixes a bug with launching in Android 5 and a setting migration bug that was overlooked.

Note - clear your data in the app if you have issues starting the overlay after updating!

Feedback Release

This release adds two optional modes of feedback to the overlay:

  • Haptic feedback: when you tap a button, a smalll vibration will occur in response
  • Brightening buttons: when you tap a button, it will brighten briefly in response

This adds a permission to allow the device to vibrate, however both of these features are completely optional. If you've installed via Google Play, wait for the update prompt, otherwise you can download or install from here.

Tasker Support Release

This release adds support as a plugin for Tasker and Locale. If you've been wanting to launch the overlay automatically near-effortlessly, now you can! Simply go into any profile, or create a new one, select "Plugins", and select Media Button Overlay. You'll then have the same configuration screen as if you were using the app standalone.

If you've downloaded the application from Google Play, you can wait for the auto-update, or go into your applications from there and install. If not, you can download this APK, and run it to overwrite the current installation. If you haven't installed yet, then now is the perfect opportunity!
