The biggest issue is that the setting for screen overlays is found in different spots on different manufacturers’ handsets. So, how do you get to the “Draw over other apps” menu without first experiencing the error and getting that quick link? Or, what if there is no quick link? That part’s pretty easy.

RELATED: How to Disable the "Is Displaying Over Other Apps" Notification on Android Oreoįortunately, in Android Oreo, Google basically made it really easy to figure out what app is causing the issue with a new notification that tells you exactly what is displaying over other apps. In that situation, I’d just go ahead and disallow all of them, then re-enable them on an as-needed basis. Of course, that’s not foolproof-in some instances there may be more than one app drawing on the screen, which can be incredibly frustrating.

The list in the screenshot above shows all the apps that have permission to draw on the screen, but if you can figure out which one is actually drawing on the screen when you get that error, you can just disable that one and move on. What passive apps do you use that run in the background? Similarly, apps like CF.lumen and Twilight draw on the screen when enabled, so you’ll need to pause or disable those services to get rid of the screen overlay error.What apps have you been using recently? As mentioned above, Facebook Messenger draws on the screen for chat heads, so if a chat head is actively running, it’s most likely your culprit.Ideally, you’ll know which app caused the conflict, and you can disable just that one. You could disable every single one, but that could be super time consuming, especially if you have dozens of apps installed that can apply overlays. Now, sometimes when this error is generated, it includes an “Open Settings” link that sends you directly into the “Draw over other apps” menu. The rough part is that each app has to be toggled manually-just tap on an app, slide the “Permit Drawing Over Other Apps” toggle, and go back. In the example below, I’m using Twilight-a “night mode” app-which uses a screen overlay to do its thing.

So, if you install a new app and launch it for the first time while also having a conversation over a Facebook Chat Head, you’ll get an error as the new app tries to request its permissions. Android absolutely will not allow permissions to be changed when an overlay is running, thus resulting in the “Screen Overlay Detected” error. Unfortunately, some apps do odd things when an overlay is actively running, especially if the app in question needs to request a new permission. Tap “Draw over other apps” and toggle apps in the list.

Tap the Gear icon on the top right of the Settings page.

It’s already starting to click, isn’t it? For example, Facebook Messenger uses chat heads to stay in the foreground of whatever you’re doing-this is the app using the “Draw over other apps” feature. Fortunately, it’s a pretty easy fix once you know what’s causing the error: a feature found in Marshmallow and beyond that allows apps to “draw” over other apps.
