i am creating an app which will recreate Samsung floating window capability for non Samsung smartphone,

well i found a thread suggesting this can be possible App inside an app some one commented to launch the app using intent and get x y placement using inject tools and hence i tried launching app's Main-activity to run in fragment using intent well this sounds stupid and ya it doesn't work don't laugh,

Instrumentation m_Instrumentation = new Instrumentation();
m_Instrumentation.sendPointerSync(motionEvent);

i really want a way to open installed app to open in a fragment or activity that is anything resizable.

  • Good question, but no need for the self-deprecating remarks "well this sounds stupid and ya it doesn't work don't laugh". Don't worry, no one is going to laugh; all you need do is ask the question simply and clearly, which you have done. – Graham Asher Mar 25 '19 at 20:14

I think that recreating Samsung floating window would be impossible with vanilla android.

You could try getting Picture-In-Picture to do what you want or maybe Multi Window will fit your use case.
