Pixel 3 latest version if android - this app is excellent. Not often am I compelled to review apps, but the quality and usefullness of this app cannot be understated. I use it with the normal bottom home bar removed (after running an ADB command on my PC) and it works perfecty. Now i have full screen apps all the time and can easily acces all my home, back, and recent apps controls by swiping in. The app allows you to customize every part of you experience to your liking.

It's a really good app with lots of options. The animations, colours and pie-points are nice. Requests: Keyboard overlay conflict blocking option; a pop-up brightness-control; option of different pie entry-animations; It's different enough from 'Pie Control' by CoolAce to warrant a go but both are excellent.

I use 1 layer of the pie, and wondered if you can add a functionality? I swipe far out most of the time and even adjusting the size, sometimes I miss going on the command. Can you make it so passing the command button still registers the command function ? This would make things so much better when I use the phone fast ! 😀😁
