Would it be possible to make Search Now accessible via a long press on the search key?

Killed my homescreen widgets.

Hard reboots almost immediately. ETA: almost couldn't get it uninstalled before it rebooted. It took me a couple of cycles.



Cool app. I hope you get the kinks worked out.

Note 2. Trent's ROM. Tons of Xposed modules.

Hi

This app looks promising,
However at this time it's not quite usable (lags, freezes, FCs...).
Looking forward until it bests! :fingers-crossed:

Suggest: make the entire app floating (and smaller while only input field is showed) so it stays really ontop other apps (anyhow now I can use xposed halo module for this); leave a search field or a quick launch in a statusbar in addition or alternatively to the floating icon.

Bye! :eek:

Freezes, Lags

First of all, great app!

I managed to fix the lags and freezes for me by deselecting the search sources for "Bookmarks and History", "Music" and "Videos". Maybe the indexing for one of those sources takes too long?

Looking forward to updates!

Pretty good!

This is the app I am looking for. I just installed on Note 2(Rogers) with SlimRom and AGNi kernel. It's a little bit laggy, but understandable. The only complaint is home button is not working when the search now is in foreground.
