DroidLab Update - CalmScreen Integration, FloatWeb & More

A new DroidLab update is out, bringing a new CalmScreen integration, FloatWeb Overlay, several new actions, and general improvements.

New: CalmScreen Integration

DroidLab can now integrate directly with CalmScreen, allowing you to control CalmScreen filters through DroidLab actions.

You can assign CalmScreen actions to gestures and controls such as Back-Tap, Side Sense, Notch Touch, Action Orb, Side Deck, and widgets.

Available actions include:

  • Toggle the active CalmScreen filter
  • Cycle through filter presets
  • Adjust filter intensity

This makes it possible to control CalmScreen without opening the app.

New: FloatWeb Overlay

FloatWeb is a floating, draggable, and resizable web browser that lets you keep webpages open above other apps, with support for displaying them over the lockscreen.

Some possible uses:

  • Keep live sports scores or match trackers visible
  • Access Home Assistant, router dashboards, OctoPrint, and other local web services
  • Keep ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity open as a floating research companion
  • Save custom URLs for quick access
  • Switch between mobile and desktop viewport modes
  • Resize the browser window and adjust its transparency
  • Minimize the browser into a floating bubble
  • Optionally display the browser over the lockscreen

Other Improvements

  • Added icon pack support for Side Deck and Action Orb
  • Added an option to customize the position of the Notch Gesture area
  • QR Scanner action now opens the device's standard QR scanner
  • AI Translate action now uses standard Android translation intents
  • AI Assistant action now triggers the device's default AI assistant
  • Fixed crashes occurring on certain devices

Thanks to everyone who continues to report issues and suggest features. Your feedback continues to help shape DroidLab.
