Ratings and reviews

Very cool app that gives a unique way to access apps of your choosing! Totally customizable for apps, order of apps, position and size of hot spot. The developer, Zeeshan, is very quick to respond to questions and frequently updates the app with fixes and new features. Get Circle SideBar NOW! UPDATE - Still one of my favorite apps! It's become one of the coolest and most used apps on my phone. People are always asking me where I got it. Keep up the good work, Zeeshan!

Very nice app and i like the whole concept. One feature I miss from my old LG V10 was the second screen option that allowed the user the ability to add up to 5 of your favorite apps & 5 of your favorite contacts. This was very convenient but this app helps make up for that. Lots of customizations. Only complaint is lack of clarity in purpose if some settings. Still, nice design & easy to use.

Great looking app and alternative for edge screen on Samsung devices. Except for the activation area keeps disappearing everytime I wake up my phone. This causes me to have to go into the app and turn it on again everytime. If this bug gets fixed the app would be alot better.

What's new

1. Fixed the 'Dialer app opening contacts' issue reported. Please remove and add the icon again to completely solve this.
2. Fixed the Direct Dial Shortcuts - Please provide the CALL Permission in case of Lollipop and above for this to work.
