Description

PLEASE NOTE: This app will only function correctly on ROMs with Halo functionality, such as Paranoid Android. If you aren't on one of those ROMs, all this app will do is automatically launch the app you just got a notification for.

HaloPop allows you to automatically turn any app that you want into a popup when you receive a notification! It does this by listening for new notifications, and when one comes through for an app that you have enabled to run automatically as a popup, it shows that app as a popup over all other running apps, just like when you like on the Halo icon to launch it.

Works great for apps that don't have popups, such as Google Hangouts, or any other type of app where you don't want to use the included popup and would rather use the full app scaled down in the middle of the screen. Any app that give you a notification is supported!

Set up:
1) Install and launch the app
2) Enable the notification listener service when prompted... you have to do this or else the app WILL NOT FUNCTION
3) Push the + button on the top right of the screen and select all the apps you want to popup automatically
4) Enjoy :)

Some great apps to use this with:
- Sliding Messaging Pro
- Google Hangouts
- GoSMS
- Handcent
- GMail
- And basically anything else!

HUGE thanks to all of the guys working on Paranoid Android, without them none of this is possible!

If you have any comments, please feel free to email me before leaving a review and I'll get back to you ASAP!

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew

4 ★I randomly stumbled on this on the market so I decided to try it out. It works good but the only issue I've found so far is while I'm working on my phone the applications set will pop up disturbing what I was doing.

4 ★This would be exactly what I need if the popups didn't show up automatically. There should be an option to choose if you'd like the popup to show upon tapping the notification, possibly on a per-app basis.

3 ★The app works as intended, but its intended function is annoying. Under no circumstance do I want a new notification to immediately interrupt what I'm currently doing on my phone. There are plenty of apps that can launch other apps in Halo, so this one isn't even special in that respect. Bumped up to 3 stars to be a bit more fair. Working as intended still doesn't make it a good app, especially when it's intended function is better executed with other apps. People like pop-ups, maybe, but uncontrollable?

4 ★Just needs a whitelist/blacklist feature to keep pop ups from disturbing when reading a book, watching Netflix, etc.

5 ★Perfect but I think a possible option could be added to launch into a Halo window once the notification is clicked in the drop down instead of automatically and maybe the option to choose between that functionality per app.

5 ★Keep it up you guys are making me love my phone by the day

5 ★It also works with the xhalo floating window module for xposed framework.

4 ★App is great, but uses too much battery ... fix this for 5 star :))

5 ★Nice...

5 ★If Halo was not just enough for you, then this is made for you. Takes Halo functionality to new level. It's pretty fast. No lag so far. Loving it.

4 ★But I partially agree with user who gave a bad rating.. Maybe the best thing would be let the user decide if and which apps automatically open, while the others are manually launched in floating mode..
