Inside the floating bubble layer: how BIT's core feature works

The floating layer is the whole thesis: memories that come to you, over any app, without taking anything over.

How it works

Bubbles render above your current app via Android's standard overlay permission, drift without stealing focus, and respond to two gestures: tap to bloom the memory full-screen, swipe to dismiss. Typing, video, and games continue undisturbed underneath.

Getting the most from it

One master switch controls the layer — on for the ambient experience, off for total stillness — and the setting survives restarts. The layer is deliberately boring to manage; the content is the show.
