First public beta of SideRail — the notifications-first edge rail for Android.
What's in 0.2: edge handle (tap or swipe to open, drag to park), live notifications in the rail (open / dismiss / clear all), favorite apps row, now-playing media controls, quick toggles (torch, sound mode, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, airplane settings), brightness + volume sliders, left or right edge, resizable handle and rail.
Free vs Pro: free tier covers the rail, notifications, controls, 3 favorites; Pro (one-time $4.99 on Payhip) unlocks 12 favorites, all accent colors, and per-app notification muting. Every beta tester who files a feedback report gets Pro free.

Install: see the README — especially the one-time "Allow restricted settings" step, without which Android won't let the app's permission switches move.
Known rough edges: this build was tested mainly on one Motorola phone (Android 16). Launching some apps from the overlay and some toggles behave differently across manufacturers (Samsung/Pixel especially wanted). If the rail disappears, set the app's battery mode to Unrestricted.
Feedback: the form is linked in the README, or open an Issue here.
