Core Functionality

1. Slider-Sync Logic

• Smart Detection: Uses an Accessibility Service to monitor the screen for progress bars on supported platforms:
  • YouTube Shorts
  • TikTok
  • Instagram Reels
• Auto-Swipe: Triggers a vertical swipe gesture exactly when the progress bar reaches 100% (rangeInfo.current == max).

2. Point-to-Map Overlay

• Manual Anchoring: Includes a floating overlay bubble (managed via WindowManager) that allows users to manually "anchor" the location of the progress bar if automatic detection needs a hint.
• Persistence: Saves $(x, y)$ coordinates in SharedPreferences for future sessions.

3. Human Emulation

• Anti-Detection: Randomized swipe gestures to mimic natural human behavior and bypass bot detection algorithms.
  • Duration: Randomized between 250ms and 450ms.
  • Coordinates: Start and end points vary by $\pm 15%$ on each swipe.

Technical Constraints & Architecture

• Ultra-Lightweight: strict target APK size of < 1.5MB.
• Native Stack: Built entirely with Kotlin and XML Layouts. No heavy frameworks like Jetpack Compose or Flutter.
• Optimization: Aggressive R8/ProGuard rules enabled (minifyEnabled true, shrinkResources true) to strip unused code and resources.
• Vector Graphics: All UI elements use vector XML to minimize tangible asset size.

Setup & Usage

1. Install: Install the APK on your Android device.
2. Permissions:
   • Open Laze.
   • Tap Enable Overlay to grant SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission (for the floating bubble).
   • Tap Enable Accessibility Service to grant BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE permission (for screen monitoring and auto-swiping).
3. Laze: Open your favorite short-video app and let Laze handle the scrolling.
