A small Android app that lets you scroll anywhere using your volume buttons.
Try this way of scrolling and you might not want to go back!
Possible advantages of page-by-page scrolling:
- Less distracting
- Easier to hold your phone tightly in one hand
- Some research suggests paging may help with attention and information recall
Especially great for reading articles, essays, books and other long-form text content. Akin to "flipping pages" on physical media.
- ability to select apps in which volume-scrolling will be enabled
- customizable scroll amount
- invert direction option
- dual-volume-button shortcut toggle
- Quick Settings tile
- aesthetic minimalist Material You UI
Android does not provide a normal app API for global scrolling in other apps. Using an Accessibility Service is the only way to do this.
The app doesn't do anything else with the Accesibility permission. The app doesn't need network permission and you can inspect the code yourself.
- Android Studio (latest stable recommended)
