Ratings and reviews

I will say the free trial period is way too fast, you only get like 20 shortcuts before it prompts to pay, but it's only 99¢ and more than worth it! It works really great, and makes things like taking shortcuts so much easier. And unlike other screenshot apps it's completely invisible! Just tap or swipe the notification bar and it works like a charm. However, one downside is seeing your notifications (swipe down) is slower because it fights against this app. Two swipe also doesn't work at all.

Works really well when it does. Very consistent, so I can actually rely on it. Doesn't require battery draining shizuku service either. Has a few improvements needed tho: - Sometimes after rotating landscape to portrait, the touch notch area (invisible) goes to top left of screen, instead of actual notch. Making stuff under that untouchable. Pixel 7 - More functions like bringing up system brightness slider, toggle night light, night light intensity, extra dim, custom activities, would be great

Free trial ended after a few keypresses! 🤷 I don't understand 🤔 I wasted 5 minutes setting it up only to find that the trial period had ended within seconds of using the app. Tricks like this just made people more likely to seek a hacked version. Not me of course, there are similar app already available for free 😉
