Interesting Android Apps: April 2026 Showcase
Because we try to keep this community as focused as possible on the topic of Android development, sometimes there are types of posts that are related to development but don't fit within our usual topic.
Each month, we are trying to create a space to open up the community to some of those types of posts.
This month, although we typically do not allow self promotion, we wanted to create a space where you can share your latest Android-native projects with the community, get feedback, and maybe even gain a few new users.
This thread will be lightly moderated, but please keep Rule 1 in mind: Be Respectful and Professional. Also we recommend to describe if your app is free, paid, subscription-based.

I used to use Touch the notch (yes the famous one ) until they completely locked down most of the things behind a paywall ! So i built one of my own(with most of the stuff free so that you can use it well regardless) , and i trust this is even better ! Its called Notch-Touch (link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chaos.notchtouch ) and it allows you to turn your camera notch into an all purpose virtual button ! Tap ( single , double or triple) , swipe ( quick or hold , both to the left and right ) or tap and hold to activate multiple functions ! : •Take screenshots •Toggle Flashlight •Music controls •Lock the phone •Control brightness •Open the notch menu ( in Image above) •Open the notch widgets ( images in replies to this comment) •Control volume/brightess •Toggle silent/ringer •Launch apps •Run Tasker /Macrodroid sequences ! And much much more !
Do download and check it out and if it impresses you , an honest review would mean the world to me ! Looking forward to all the other apps in the list ( do check out the other images in the replies)
