Ratings and reviews

I had a pretty nice situation on my Galaxy phone with gestures (no buttons) and the One Handed Operations + app. This gets most of the way there. Toggle Split Screen doesn't work at all. And the very small panel length when overriding system panels is annoying. But hopefully with a few updates it'll be great!

It took me a while to customize and this app ALMOST hits 5 stars. I would really love it if the button nav bar had gestures at three different areas like Samsung. I always do recent apps from the left bottom and back at the right bottom. Doing diagonals on the bottom nav hard without calibration. Couldn't find a place to do an email so hoping this can be implemented. Also, wondering if it can have auto rotate stick the current orientation vs reverting back to the original one before action.

I've come to rely on this more and more since my thumb has been giving me problems. Why Google Pixel won't allow moving the navigation controls to the side, I don't know. Phone developers seem to think that everybody uses two hands navigate their phones, and so many phones are big enough that they have to do that. But I like using one hand on my Pixel 8A, so I need to make it easier to navigate. This app is a thumb saver.
