Full description

Bubbles In Time is a small Android app that floats your favorite photos, videos, and messages over whatever you're doing — so the things you love stay just at the edge of view. Pick a moment from your phone. It becomes a draggable bubble. Read a message, glance at a face, watch a short clip — all without leaving the app you're already in. WHAT IT DOES - Floats photos, videos, and text messages as bubbles over any other app - Drag bubbles anywhere on screen, tap to expand, swipe away to dismiss - Long-press to pick a new bubble or change what's inside - Works over apps, home screen, and everywhere in between - No notifications, no interruptions, no ads WHO IT'S FOR For anyone who wants the small things they care about to stay close, even when the phone is busy with something else. A photo of your kid. A short clip of someone laughing. A note you don't want to forget. A picture of a person you miss. Whatever matters enough to keep in view — it floats with you, and steps aside when you're done. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Bubbles In Time runs entirely on your device. Your photos, videos, and messages never leave your phone. There's no cloud sync, no account, no analytics, no ads. Nothing about you is collected, shared, or transmitted. Camera and photo permissions are used only when you choose to capture a new bubble or pick one from your library. The overlay permission is what lets bubbles float over other apps — Android requires it for that feature. ONE-TIME PURCHASE $2.99, yours forever. No subscription. No in-app purchases. No upsells. Buy it once, use it as long as you have a phone that supports it. QUIET, ON PURPOSE The phone wants your attention. Bubbles In Time wants to give it back — by keeping the moments you love close, without asking for anything in return. REQUIREMENTS - Android 9 or later - Permission to display over other apps (granted once on first run) - Optional: camera and media access (only when you initiate)

What's new

Initial release for closed testing. Bubbles In Time floats your favorite photos, videos, and messages over any app on your phone — like little reminders that drift across the screen. Tap a bubble to expand. Drag to dismiss. Long-press to change content. Settings → Frequency → choose how often bubbles appear (30 min to 4 hours). Thanks for testing!
