Hi, I saw no point in maintaining the app when stock Android removed navigation bar and added gestures. Add rooting struggles and you get the picture. I felt over-burned from fighting new Android restrictions in every release. I removed XDA and my dev mail account from my phone and moved on. I...

I don't have a solution right now but I'll just try to explain what is going on. The app basically has 4 parts: Main Android app, root process that reads gestures, root process that executes root shell commands and root Android process that executes system API. Each part communicate to main...

Gestures on keyboards are properly disabled on my Pixel 2 With latest Magisk and stock keyboard. I will take a look if I can detect it I will add it. Do you have Tasker and can you try sending Back and Home key sequence to see if it works? I'm thinking about adding general key code action. I...

It was a busy winter, had bad flu then had to go to usa on a business trip (you know real job :)) some other stuff going on. But I got Pixel 2 today and sorted out most of the "other stuff". I'm working on GMD Immersive Mode update now but I will do another update for Gesture Control with new...

Can you explain what you mean by "make navigation support toggle One Hand Mode"? Can you give have an example of actions you want to chain? I can't think of many case where it would be useful. I just tell the truth, I cannot afford to buy each device and its impossible to fix such issues...

I'm shopping for new phone for development and then I will do another round of updates. What device and what keyboard? It work properly for me on 6p Oreo stock keyboard. Are you using Magisk? Upgrade to Magisk if you are still using SuperSU. I will check what I can do. Completely disabling...

I will try to fix it.

I think I fixed all reported issues so hopefully I stop bothering you with daily updates :o

Published new version 10.1.9: Fixed "Hide Notification" setting. Fixed "Exit" action.

First let me say that this is intentional. At some point it looked like a good idea to allow for multi-finger gestures to work in a way where you hold all fingers still and do the gesture just with one finger. It mostly makes sense with starting zones and I'm not sure if anyone is really...

Are you in beta? I uploaded 10.1.8 with hide notification fix to beta channel. Let me know if it works. Have you tried helper apps for other notifications? https://www.xda-developers.com/hide-app-running-background-notification-android-oreo/

What Android version are you running? Oreo has special style for low priority notifications which is less intrusive. I have to dig a bit deeper to see if I can find a new workaround but I want to make it clear that notification is required by Android and hiding it is a abuse of system bugs.

Running service without notification was disabled with Lollipop however GestureControl was abusing it with low API target. Latest update bumped API target in order to support tall screens. I can only suggest using Low Priority which removes status bar icon. Play Store prevents lowering target...

Version 10.1.5 bumped target API to 25 and it looks like it introduced a crash related to notification hiding. Uploaded version 10.1.7 where notification hiding option works as low priority notification instead.

Let me know what you think. It's just a first attempt. The way it is done now Android can still claim icon cache memory if LaunchBar is not used for some time. I can do it more persistent if its cleared too often.
