Superseded. This version's download has been removed; please install the latest release, or build this version from its source code (tag above). Updates install over the top and keep your settings.

Automation, skins and an optional emergency restart.

Automation and home screen shortcuts

  • Automation apps (Tasker, MacroDroid, Key Mapper and similar) can now trigger a flip with a broadcast, once you allow it in Settings. Key Mapper can use it to flip on a volume button press. Off by default.
  • The broadcast must carry a private code shown in Settings (with a Copy button), so no other app can trigger it, and a stop request respects the cooldown like a flip.
  • Long-press the SocketFlip icon for Flip now, Show button and Hide button shortcuts.
  • See the guide for the broadcast details.

A cleaner look, and skins

  • The main screen, Settings and Check setup are laid out in cards, with one big button to show or hide the floating button.
  • New Skins row in Settings: 14 ready-made looks, from quiet dark ones to bright ones, including Clear Pair, whose two colours stay easy to tell apart with red-green colour blindness. Tap one to use it, then tweak anything you like.
  • The arrow on the button can now be mirrored so it turns the other way.

An optional emergency restart

  • For the rare time an app stays stuck on its reconnecting screen: turn on Settings > Emergency restart and, while the cooldown runs, the button turns into a red !. Tap it and SocketFlip asks whether to restart the app.

  • It always asks first, and if it cannot ask it restarts nothing, so a stray tap never restarts anything. Off by default.

  • It closes the app's screens and opens it again, and most games start fresh. If an app survives that, Open App info (Force stop) opens its App info page. Android does not let one app force-stop another directly.

  • It keeps opening the app again for up to 12 seconds, until the app is back on screen, and after the first few seconds stops if you switch to another app.

  • If the app takes a couple of seconds to close, the restart brings it back by itself instead of leaving you on the home screen, and the button stays on screen until it has.

  • Still no internet permission.

Install over the top of any earlier version; your settings are kept.
