Ratings and reviews

Found this app from a Reddit thread, I was looking for a way to swap the Back and Apps buttons on the Google Pixel because for some reason, the buttons are in the opposite position on Samsung and Pixel phones. This was wrecking my muscle memory and I don't like it. You can't even change it without this app! Fortunately all the features you really need are in the free version, and the pro version is just $2 and it's not a stinky subscription. I really appreciate it!

This app does not support the accessibility menu in the navigation bar! Absolutely useless and a waste of time and money! It also does not show the icons much larger than what I already can do with my system settings which was the main reason why I purchased it. Finally, the app does not truly hide the bar when the keyboard pops up. It still leaves a black bar that even functions as a navigation bar rifgt under my keyboard. Very frustrating and very sloppy. Don't waste your time or money!!!

A fun concept. There are a couple of reasons it's not for me. It was impossible to set the vertical and horizontal sliders to have it work with my Pixel 6, which limits me to only one of the larger button variations. The main reason I'm uninstalling is that the option to hide the new buttons when the keyboard is open doesn't work, so there is a stock down arrow sticking out under the back button. I will reconsider my review with future updates. Thanks for your work, it's a neat idea. 🐬
