Hey,

This is quite a late response but in case anyone else is still looking for a similar solution, after skimming over the WindowManager implementation I think that the following is a possible solution for moving the bubble:

// params to represent the new position
WindowManager.LayoutParams params = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(
                WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_PHONE,
                WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE,
                PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT
        );
        params.gravity = Gravity.TOP | Gravity.LEFT;
        params.x = 0;
        params.y = 100; 
// get instance of window manager and use it to update the bubble's position
bubble.getWindowManager().updateViewLayout(bubble, params);
// notify the bubble's layout coordinator
if (bubble.getLayoutCoordinator() != null) {
    bubble.getLayoutCoordinator().notifyBubblePositionChanged(this, x, y);
}

Note: this will likely just 'teleport' the bubble without a smooth transition. If you're after a smooth transition you'll probably need to add an animation for the params, this might help: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8664939/animate-view-added-on-windowmanager
