Ratings and reviews

This is almost exactly what I have been looking for, but I was disappointed to find if I select to position it at the top, even if I grant all its permissions, it gets overridden by opening the system notification panel. It also keeps changing app folder contents from what I selected. If that isn't getting fixed soon, I kind of want a refund.

This is a fabulous app. I love that I can put all my commonly used apps in easy reach without having to search for them or go down a long long list. Just can't be beat. ❤️ However, I do have one wish for a feature: I wish I could easily move an icon from one zone screen to another (with whatever special icon I created for it), without having to delete it and totally recreate it elsewhere. 🤔 Though I'm not a programmer, maybe something similar to share but only "shares" to other ZL screens? ❓

I got this to replace my beloved SwipePad. It's very good & has some extra cool features that I like, but one of the main things I want is the direct dial/SMS but those shortcuts don't work, or even a shortcut to a contact. I tried giving it permissions but it doesn't show up in the app list for contact permissions. Also, you can adjust the visible width of the zones on the edge, but it doesn't effect the actual touch zones which are way too wide & intrusive so they are triggered easily. Bummer!
