Show any widget from anywhere!
Keep your favorite widgets handy no matter what app you're in. Widgets Anywhere lets you keep a widget of any size floating on top of everything else. Now you always have access to your music player, power controls, audio recognition, or whatever you like.
If you're running Android 4.1 (Jellybean) or above it gets even better! Not only can you use the widget anywhere, you can start it from anywhere too! Use the same simple gesture you use for bringing up Google Now to show your favorite widget on top of any app. Quick and easy settings allow you to adjust the transparency ant title bar visibility. You can even expand the notification to adjust some settings without even leaving your current app!
This app is currently only available on devices running Android 4.0 or above. Plans are being considered for expanding availability to devices running below 4.x, so check back soon if your device does not meet this requirement.

Needs more settings. Smaller title bar so widgets can be tucked into corners, and long press to move even without title bar. Cool concept though

Well, thanks to the developer that didn't reply to my Email or help me in any way to make the app work on my device.

Don't bother with the other two widget floaters out there. This one is fantastic. You can easily show & hide your widgets at leisure. Use in conjunction with "Listener Launcher". Incredible combo.

A very useful and light app, delivering that which it promises. One problem: adding new widget is either too complex, I am to stupid to master the learning curve or there's a bug as not all widgets appear once I have tried to add them.

I would love to see this as a real widget I could scroll through. Multiple widgets in one. Would be great.

The Tasker integration needs a way to select which widget to display, however.

This app is innovative and powerful, allowing for better multitasking. My only suggestion would be to enable the long press of the menu key instead of the search key (if possible).

this is what we call intuitive and the reason to own an android! Definitely worth getting if you have ICS or JB, I love having my music widget up while navigating

I wish you could still use Google Now from the lockscreen. I hate having to always click "Use this once" because i use Google Now alot.

I love how it is able to replace the Google Now shortcut. Wish it was possible to have more than 1 widget at a time, or a way to quickly switch widgets.

out of the two floating widget apps i tried, this one is much better I can drag this around with ease even with the title bar minimised (although that took a bit of getting used to -- wondering if you'd be able to make the 'grab and move' area a little larger, or make it so that two finger touch not only resizes the widget area but can move it. also some kind of way to close the widget from the config window, or make it so i don't have to pop up the title bar again to close it. cheers!

Great use of Jelly Bean's new swipe up action! Gives me the Audible widget anytime I want it, but still allows me to get to Google Now. Great idea, and great execution!

System UI crashes when trying to access task manager (long hold home button on note 2). Removing widgets anywhere fixed the problem.
