Requires you to install their Go launcher for it to work. I've already got a launcher so no way.
Ooops I'm not going to download a different launcher. Too bad. This one looked promising.
After the update you cannot take just a single option. For example I want just the data button to turn on or off. Instead the single button widget is only wifi and you camt change it. I have to use the whole bar and take everything out but the data. Also even if i just put the data on the widget bar the whole bar just ends up coming back to the way it originally was. Fix it.
Like many others have said, this app used to work almost flawlessly and lived up to its description. Since the update I'm assuming, the app is rendered basically useless. The icons reorder on the home pages and the switches hardly work on there or the notification bar. If they decide to work, it's to send you to the respective page which kind of defeats the purpose of the app. When these major problems are fixed, my rating will be fixed.
I have this app along with the non pro version installed on my Samsung Note 5 and it widget has worked for months and now after I restart my phone widget shows up with no icons and just a white bar. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and same problem. Please fix.
Galaxy s4, everything works great (this is why i am rating this app with a 5 stars). Just that, before the upgrade? I was able to click on the MOBILE DATA icon for activating the mobile data but after the update, this action opens up a new settings windows. And i have to activate the mobile data in this new window. Not a big deal really but it3a regression. We went from one click to 4 clicks. You might wanna take a look at that.
It's an alright app. Adds some convenience especially for the data switcher but Go Switch will freeze and stop working for days on end in the notification bar/drop down menu thing, removing that flick-of-a-finger convenience for certain features that should be within that distance.EDIT: Rating was 3s but now giving it a 1s because the widget rearranges back to default after a few minutes. Uninstalling.
Used to be good. Last update broke ability to change what switches are displayed. Will re-rate when fixed. ***Workaround found: Force close Go Launcher Z via Running Apps, hit the home button and then edit the items displayed in the widget. i have rebooted multiple times since then and they have not changed back to default.
I can no longer add app shortcuts to home screens since the last updates. Used to be able to long tap and a menu would pop up permitting apps, widgets, and more to be added. I would rate this app much higher once this capability is restored.
I'm very disappointed that you still haven't fixed the issue of my VIP status. I have asked several times, to have this problem fixed, but to no avail. I have enjoyed your products for a long time and have purchased many. Your lack of help on this makes be believe that you have become dishonorable, disinterested, or too busy to care. Whatever the reason, I will no longer support your products, not that you care.
I'VE USED IT FOR A LONG TIME...BUT ACCIDENTLY DELETED THE GO SWITCH...WHEN I REPLACED IT THERE WAS NO BLACK WIDGET TO CHOOSE FROM. WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO THE BLACK SELECTION!!! YOU CAN'T HARDLY SEE THE DARN ICONS ON THE VIRTUALLY TRANSPARENT ONE. AND THE WHITE HAS BLUE ICONS, NIT GOOD FOR ALL WALL PAPERS, JUST ALL WRONG. BRING BACK THE BLACK SELECTION. AND YOU CAN HAVE YOUR 5 STARS
Like many other users, I love Go Switch+ but I hate having to re-edit the layout of the icons after each reboot. I noticed that also after a screen rotation the displayed icons turn back to default. After disabling "auto-rotate" this annoying problem goes away, but with that I lose the ability to watch videos full-screen. Please fix this behavior (it does it on both Lollipop 5.1 on Google Nexus 5 and 4.4.4 on Samsung Note 4, so it does not seem to depend on the OS version).
Please fix! Loved this, till I updated go and now all the switches are reverting back to the default switches not the ones I edited. PLEASE FIX, I use way this much to have this happen, especially since I use almost none of the default switches. And some if the switches that had the black background are gone now too.
I have upgraded to Android 5.02 ("lollipop") and now some of the toggles just take you to the phone's android settings, whereas before the toggle actually directly changed the setting. Once you have this upgraded, it will be 5 stars.
Since upgrading to Android 5 (Lollipop), every time the phone is restarted (or reboots), the switch icons in this widget reset to their defaults. Otherwise it works OK, and gives lots of options for customisation.
Galaxy Note 4 - I love this app and will give more stars when you fix the bugs. When I reboot my phone the icons disappear sometimes.
So annoying coz I can't even use it. I wish I cud give u no star at all
When the Wi-Fi hotspot widget is in 1x1 black, it appears to be the sd card widget, but in appearance only. The moment you turn it on, it changes to the hotspot symbol.
The switches vanish post restart. And revert to default selection over time. Eg I have removed alarm, battery switch and added lock and torch. It reverts to battery and alarm
When you click the flashlight switch it opens an app then you have to click another button to turn on the flashlight. Pointless, uninstalled.
There seems to be a problem with it. It keeps resetting to factory switches and I keep having to rearrange them back to where I had them will get 4th star when that gets fixed will get 5th star when you give me more options it's all just a little to limited
Keeps telling me to download full app. I do it, but still controls are not accessible and still message there to download fill app. Fail.
At frequent intervals the switch keeps changing back to the default options than the ones I set. Pls fix this asap.
The notification tray switches don't work 90%of the time and every time I use the widget on the home screen it restarts go launcher! Fix and I would gladly give 5 stars bc I really used to like it but at this point I'm about to look for a better power bar
To the original setup. Few times i change the switchs that appear on my screen and they keep turning back.
I wanna give it 5 star, but with latest update always ICONS are invisible & getting reset every time. Only white bar is visible. Please correct it
