Ratings and reviews

Uninstalled because it was reducing battery life. Tried again this week. Cuts battery life by 30-50%. Waiting for fix/update. I loved this app on the Z Flip 3. Just upgraded to a Z Flip 5. I like the app enough to have paid twice for it. When not buggy, the app makes the cover screen much more useful, especially on the Flip 5. I can access more apps without opening my phone. It's a work in progress, but it offers far more than the stock cover UI. Will reinstall when battery issue fixed.

Not ready to be charged for. The app has way to many bugs. Features randomly stop working. Widgets don't refresh. Great idea, poorly executed. I reached out to the developer and never heard back. I'm guessing they gave up on the app and just leave it as is collecting premium subscription.

Everything is ok but they need to upgrade the cover screen for people could be able to answer video calls too from the cover screen. [update: the app keeps acting up and I paid for the app thinking I was not going to have any problem but I guess I was wrong everything was good in the beginning but now I'm not sure if this app is good and is not even compatible with Google meet video so I change my start from 3 to 1
