Why limit yourself to your small screen on the phone? Run Button for the Zello, an app by Allan Ribas, best experienced on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks, the world’s #1 Android emulator.
About the App
Button for the Zello is a simple helper that makes talking in Zello smoother and faster. It puts a floating push-to-talk control on your screen so you can start or stop transmitting without digging around for the in‑app button. It’s a Tools app by Allan Ribas that keeps things lightweight, flexible, and easy to use.
App Features
- Floating PTT overlay: Keep a movable button on top of Zello. Tap to start transmitting, tap again to stop—super direct and reliable.
- Hold or lock modes: Prefer hands-free? Lock the button to keep transmitting, then unlock when you’re done.
- Adjustable size: Make the button larger for quick access or shrink it so it stays out of the way.
- Opacity control: Fade the button so it’s visible but not distracting over maps, chats, or channel lists.
- Auto-press options: Set up automatic tapping to kick off transmit without repeated manual presses.
- Force until active: Let the app keep “pressing” the action button until Zello actually starts transmitting.
- Proximity trigger: Activate transmit using the phone’s proximity sensor—great when you raise the device to your face or keep your hands busy.
- Screen-off shortcut: Use the Volume + key to trigger transmit even with the screen turned off.
- Individual status tip: For smoother behavior, run Zello in individual status while using the overlay.
- Works nicely on desktop: If you’re using Zello on your PC, the overlay pairs well with BlueStacks for a comfortable setup.
BlueStacks brings your apps to life on a bigger screen—seamless and straightforward.
