The menu is not repsonsive and will most likely cause some reasonable punishment
to your sites Google rating. The option to hide the menu on mobile devices does 
not work for over 2 years now. Support requests to this issue are constantly getting
ignored. So basically it does what you expect from it, but I can not recommend it
anymore as mobile aspects of websites have become to important by now.

Hi there, I needed a “panic button” feature for a website helping people who have
been abused. I put a question to the WPMUDEV community and this plugin was put forward.
It went in without a problem and now users have a “Quick Exit” feature in case the
abuser is nearby. Appreciate your work on this plugin. Will

I am so glad I found this – it has solved an ongoing problem that has me perplexed
for some time now. I can really recommend this plugin for anyone needing this type
of floating menu system.

Thank you for this plugin! I have not tested it in depth and across several browsers
yet, but it seems to be saving my life or at least my weekend… I am working on a
site that requires qtranslate-x, but our theme does not allow the language links
in the menu bar – they are simply not working. For all other solutions I would have
had to mess with the core files. Adding the language switcher to the floating menu
is doing exactly what I hoped it would!

 [Rob](https://profiles.wordpress.org/seomandarin/) September 3, 2016

Had to look for a while to find a good floating plugin. And found it! Because it
adds it to the menu list you can have it working on a multi language site as well.
Also it’s really easy to style the button or menu to your own liking.
