Ok, the app is very promising and it could be more. First, i hate the way it displays over other elements, maybe displaying it on top the nav bar so it couldn't get in the way. Second, the start menu could use more polishing, the taskbar is looking neat but not the menu itself. Last, having its own notification center (PC style and all) would be awesome. I wish i knew more about coding, maybe i would have been a part of this.
Wow, this app is amazing, I love it. But they are some things some things you could improve, please make a "life at glance" corner to replace the widget thing, I also can't change the start icon, no matter how many pictures I try it won't work,please fix. But overall, a really good app.
I recently got a new phone, and it's the first time I've seen Android without a built-in app tray. This app has made this phone actually usable, and better than any standard app tray ever could. It's simple, it's easy to use, and it's functionality is fantastic.
In standard view apps have minimize, maximize and close oppositions. But in full screen (maximize) there is no oppositions like standard view, minimize and close. Please develop these oppositions in next update.
This is overall, great app! It makes my productivity on my tablet way better than before. I have one suggestion. Despite having the ability to perform navigation control, could you modify it to be able to replace the navigation bar on the device? Thanks!
Launching an app from the taskbar kills the app on the background (making it to refresh almost everytime), why don't you make it the native recent apps provider( scraping out the ability to view default recent apps when set as default home launcher). Add something like screenshot when set as default home launcher, since most Android device has it from the recent apps style. Thanks i did like to continue using this app
The app has high potential. But it just needs some serious modifications. 1. You need to add the trigger (arrow at the edge of screen) settings. Users should be able to move its position by tap and holding. 2. Users should be able to change the size of the icons on taskbar and the taskbar itself.
I was looking for 2 years for this app. I am using it on Poco F3 with DPI scale at 720. This tweak transofroed it to a small tablet and MIUi gestures working too. Changing apps is a breeze now. Thank for the app. I hope it works on my new tablet too.
Such a helpful app. Comes in handy quite often. Should be standard on devices. It has it's quirks and occasional minor problems, but overall a well done and nifty thing to have.
Useless. Have an empty task bar on my Galaxy tab and cannot do anything with it. Uninstall after trying to configure it for approx 30min without success (I am a software developer myself, so I am maybe not too dumb to use apps and I do not like 1 star ratings)
I love this launcher, I've been using it for the past 6 months and it has completely replaced my default launcher. There are a few sizing issues while launching games that I play which have to be brought into full-screen mode after it launches in "standard" size because it won't do it straight away, even if I do select "maximized" in the new window setting. Overall though it serves its purpose and is a great way to keep multiple app tabs open and switch between them effortlessly!
Great app! One thing that would make it even cooler is the ability to center the taskbar on the screen instead of having it always the the left or right. Also, it would be cool if we could put widgets in the dock's empty space. I'd love to put a clock or a battery indicator or something like that to truly give my tablet a PC feel. Again, love the app! Thanks for putting it out there! v5: Changed my review from 4 to 5 stars because this is now exactly what I need! Thanks for the new features!
Very accessible, customizable app! It does exactly what is claims, which is to give a "Start Menu" like button and a taskbar of sorts. It lets you click on a button that gives you access to all your apps, and it can be modified so that recent or desirable apps are pinned to the taskbar. I am using this on a tablet that has a phsyical keyboard, so the "Windows" setup is what I wanted. This app really delivered!
Incredible. Now just add the option to use a custom notification area in the right bottom with quick actions, and to hide the status bar completely, to save more space, and it will be perfect. Another useful thing, though I think it's not possible to do on non-rooted devices, would be to make the taskbar fixed, and reducing screen for all other apps.
Thanks for the amazing app! Please improve flexibility with regards to the Taskbar button position. Would be nice if it could be draggable (maybe when long-pressed) and positioned anywhere on the screen or screen edges. And please allow it to overlay the status/notification bar so that it's not in the way of other apps. Thanks in advance!
The app works great, 95% of the time, that being said there are a few issues. The first is thatt it does not blend with the navigation bar well. I use a different "immersive mode" app, that works except when this app is used to open free form windows which is very annoying but managible. My suggestion would be to integrate hiding the bar into the app, or allowing the taskbar to appear behind the navigation bar in gesture mode. Not sure if the gesture mode idea is possible.
Almost perfect! I just bought a Unihertz Titan and wanted a custom Launcher that resembled a PDA. I downloaded this and expected to just have the taskbar. Nope! It is also a launcher which is so great! I just wish you would add the option to have the apps and widgets both on the desktop like an actual PC. I wanna use my at a glance widget, but don't like having to access a separate drawer to see it. Keep up the good work!
I have one complaint. The launch arrow overlaps the dock on my Samsung phone. I have a widget up top which makes putting it on top undesireable. What would be ideal would be the ability to reposition the launch button by moving it rather than fixing it at one of the four corners. I did find a work around by removing all buttons from the dock and tagging them to the recent apps, but that shouldn't be necessary. Otherwise, I like it a lot.
i really like this app! One suggestion/request: please add a default freeform window size for a maximal 4:3 aspect ratio, not just half sizes. i am unable to get custom sizing to stick for a game I enjoy (in landscape mode). I start it in half screen and then manually resize it to 4:3 but it stretches the contents. on restart, it goes back to half screen. i have tried the workaround suggested but I have been unsuccessful.
This makes smartphone navigation super quick if you go through the custom settings. Even if your phone has a ton of lag, it just removes what I now think of as extra steps to switch tasks. Taskbar saves time and frustration. Recommend this production tool to anyone who has a smartphone, especially if you have apps you use for processing documents or photo editing as it will make the process of transition between tasks smooth and effortless!
Firstly, the freeform window integration is superb and is realistically the only real way to launch apps in floating window mode outside of Tasker. Secondly, this app provides customization options that can be used to make the Taskbar look as you want it in almost every scenario. The taskbar is very user interaction friendly with nice tap hold options and a good feel overall. Especially useful is the Tasker plugin. I use it to reveal a start menu so I can quickly launch floating apps easily.
