Ratings and reviews

Kiosk mode works great, until it doesn't. Once you use the on-screen keyboard, or need to use OS navigation icons, the top bar reveals again as do the bottom navigation buttons, but they don't hide again after any amount of time. If they did, getting the plus version would be totally worth it.

It's good, overall. But it doesn't know where the screen edges are in Android 15. This means that, if you use it for Facebook mobile, the keyboard will cover up the textbox you're trying to type in. In previous Android versions, this app worked fine. This is a known problem, reported on the project's github, and while one answer would be to get it from github, add the code, and recompile, the developer should do this for the paid appstore version, if not both appstore versions.

Open it and I get a white text box, with no prompt for anything and a toggle with also no label. Additionally, the app renders "edge to edge" on Android 15 which causes it to be rendered underneath the status bar. Please either use the API to opt out or, ideally, ensure the app renders correctly on Android 15. Also, idk what the prompt at the start is supposed to do.
