About this app

Shake it! provides simple gestures to make easier to use your phone!

You can use both shakes to open applications and perform extra tasks like turning on the flashlight.

The app detects when is in a pocket so you don't need to bother that the flashlight turns on when you go for a run! 🤯

This awesome app has a sensitivity configuration to adjust it to the user strength and preference 😮😳

The gestures can be disabled from the settings screen or if you dont select any app!

The currently supported gestures are chop twice (shake your phone side away twice) and twist your wrist shake.

Here is one example configuration you can use with our application:

Shake Gesture: turn on/off the flashlight.
Twist Wrist: Open camera.

But feel free to try it out with your social networks and prefered applications.

*Important information:*
- Your phone need to have a gyrometer to use the application due to the twist wrist gesture.
- You must disable the battery optimization to have the application fully functional, without it Android will kill the app and you won't be able to access to your apps with gestures.

This is a free app šŸš«šŸ’²šŸ¤‘šŸ’µ

Security alert- be aware of the fact that the permission to "open apps" is INTENTIONALLY mislabelled as "draw over other apps". Be careful before you enable it because once I did it kept trying to open my bank app even though I hadn't set it up to do so.

So far the best app of its kind that I've used. The shake works great and isn't overly sensitive like the other apps. My only hang up is the twist motion. It's very hard to activate it. If you do it exactly like the animation it works, but it doesn't work consistently. The amount of time I waist trying to get the twist function to work I would be better off clicking into the app like normal. All that being said, it's still the best app that I've found like this so hats off to the developer.
