Video: First Early Look at Paranoid Android’s New Chat Head-Like Halo Feature
Say hello to a new feature for Android dubbed “Halo” notifications brought to you by the hard working Paranoid Android team. Similar to Facebook Messenger’s Chat Heads, Halo notifications work across your entire system by forwarding all notifications from the notification bar to the Halo bubble. There, the notification can be opened up in a tiny applet, very similar to how Facebook Messenger handles their messages.
It’s the best multi-window user interface I’ve seen to hit Android and you can see for yourself in the YouTube demo video below. Exciting stuff here.
