App 2.6.0: floating button to open the app
The MG4's launcher does not list third-party apps, so the app could only be opened by reinstalling it. Now a small round MG-red button floats over the car's screens: tap opens the app, drag moves it (the position is kept and clamped to the screen), and it hides while the app itself is open. A switch in the Upload tab turns it off. The always-on service owns the overlay, so the button is there from boot. It needs the overlay permission (SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW), which the car build has through the system UID; without it, or if the window manager refuses, the button stays away and nothing crashes, and the Upload tab offers the system permission screen. Tested on an Android 9 AOSP emulator at the head unit's 1920x1080 / 160 dpi with the car APK (installs as UID 1000): button appears over the home screen, tap opens the app, hidden while open, drag moves it without opening the app, position survives a force-stop, the switch works through the UI. FloatingButtonGeometry has 3 unit tests. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01QLJfZQZeAKAwSqViTmLzki
