Settings > Apps > Special app access > Display over other apps
This advice is partially correct, but enabling the feature requires an additional step. While you can try toggling it on from that menu, you’ll see a warning and what appears to be a non-clickable (?) link about learning more.
To fully enable it, go to the app’s Permissions screen, tap the three dots in the top-right corner, and enable Access to restricted settings first. Once that’s done, you should be able to turn on Display over other apps successfully.
It doesn’t feel like users have a clear path to enabling this feature without that link working in the warning.
i looked in every sensible sub menu, and i could give other apps the permission, just not Gadget-Bridge. on lineageks it worked instantly
