Hi !
Will there be a root option maybe in next version, which bypasses Android's 5 seconds delay of starting an Action after pressing Home button? Since I love this app, but it gets really annoying, If I have to wait 5 seconds to start an App via Glovebox after pressing Home ..

Thanks
I enter and read through this thread today and maybe you have already have found answer to your 2 years old question...
But if not, the solution exist if you are using xposed framework: StopSwitchDelay - Remove 5s Delay To Open Apps After Pressing Home Button by GermainZ

I love this app. Works perfectly on my Note 4 on L5.1.1 stock & un-rooted.
PS. can u add the feature to have GloveBox on both edges. Plus each side with it's own apps, not a duplicate. So 'left side' can be our most used apps for example, & 'right side' can open social media apps/shortcuts. (as an in-app purchase of course :)
I think this will propel Glovebox to the top app of 2015 - 2016 and i know people will pay to get this added feature, i will.

Great app! Been using the pro version on my edge for a while now, just upgraded to Nexus 6p running Marshmallow and I can't seen to add folders. Starts off just fine but when I press enter to name the folded my kb goes away and I'm not able to add the folder. Sorry if this has been answered already I read back a few pages and didn't see anything. Again, great app in looking forward to having different bars on each side. Abby hero would be appreciated.

Yes - empty on my Nexus 5x and I can't remember a phone where it has been anything but empty.

No idea why sadly - this is the only reason I still have the Facebook app installed rather than going the Chrome notifications route..

    Hi everyone,

    Sorry for the time is taking to the update, it's a big one, i hope with most of the bugs fixed but with new features too, like recent apps.
    Here's a screenshot of how it looks like:

    Screenshot_2013-03-19-18-52-59.jpg

    It will have the same principle of lift the finger to select. Any feedback is appreciated.
    Thanks.
