## What it is
A Swift library for iOS that replaces the obtrusive system volume popup with a subtle, customizable volume indicator bar. It works by suppressing the default popover via an active AVAudioSession and a hidden MPVolumeView, then rendering a styled bar in your view hierarchy.

## Use cases
- replace the iOS volume popup with a subtle indicator
- show a custom volume bar when the user presses the volume rocker
- display volume level in the iPhone notch area
- change device volume programmatically with animation
- add an accessory icon next to a volume indicator

## When to choose
- you want a less intrusive volume UI in an iOS media app
- you need programmatic volume control with a visual indicator
- you want a customizable volume bar style and animation

## When to avoid
- you are not building an iOS app
- you need a maintained library - the latest release was in 2020
- you only need standard system volume behavior
