Ratings and reviews

Doesn't work well on Galaxy S10+. After enabling and hiding the native nav bar, the in-screen fingerprint reader indicators/targets also shift down on the screen by the same height as the original nav bar, making the fingerprint reader not align without intentionally placing a fingerprint off target. Otherwise it works great, but its not usable on the S10/S10+ as is.

Perfect app. Currently on a Samsung Note 8. I always wanted to hide the nav bar but I always had to swipe up on it to view the buttons again. So I left it shown until I decided to get something like this app. So far it works perfectly, and there are a lot of different options. Definitely recommend.

This app could be amazing and necessary for all OP6 users if it weren't for 1 fatal flaw. The area in which it's enabled cannot be touched, meaning that things like the spacebar are difficult to touch since it has a smaller touch box. If this is impossible to implement, please clarify it. Otherwise, it is almost a necessity to have an option to allow touching underneath the gestures area. Fantastic app otherwise.
