Make it user configurable. 
(I'd find sliding right for previous more logical.)
BTW, bought the full version yesterday - totally worth it. Good job!

Is the test version posted the full version or the lite one? When will it be available in the market?
Also, the issues with the bar randomly hiding stopped a while ago. Can't say if it was a ROM update or something on your end, but it works great now.
Any plans to support the HTC One X or the Galaxy S3 or whatever they decide to call it when it comes out?
This is my most essential app and I really can't imagine not having it again, worth every penny!
Thanks for adding the iPad app switching gestures and the music control actions that I requested a while back, having a dev that listens to his users is awesome! Keep up the great work.

It will be just default. You can create custom gestures if you don't like default (and disable default ones). And custom can be just opposite directions or completely different gesture.

XDA version is lite. I will update full soon. I want to try one more thing with previous/next application, draw icons, add default gestures, test and then I will update market version.

The latest test version broke the support for the gtab 9 again.... Wrong multitouch device again!
Please fix this and add it to the standard set of features and i will buy the application!

Thanks, yeah - already made my own gestures for pretty much everything.
You can also add the Galaxy Tab 7.7 to your compatibility list, in case you need to.
I noticed some applications are not restored with 'Previous App' gesture. GestureControl show icon of application, but does not switch to it. I will look at it after work.
I can use same component as in LaunchPad configuration. Just curious what you need it? how many gestures do you have?
Just know that reordering will not affect the behavior (unless you have 2 gestures with completely same path, then first will trigger).
Its hard to tell. Probably it is possible, but I don't have device. Would you expect that screen and trackpad work simultaneously or just trackpad is working if dock is connected?

Version 2.0.0 with Prev/Next App is awesome!
However, it's mandatory to nitpick on small bugs. I've noticed also that the pop up icons for Prev/Next Apps do not take in account fast app switching and lag behind multiple fast gestures. They should speed up the fade effect or skip it altogether when facing lag.
Also, please add optional background (with optional transparency) for the pop up icons. I find it hard to notice them on colorful apps.

Could you make the app icons when switching apps hideable? Please
Will do, I just can't wait to release new version when something bigger is implemented

This too please. Your doing such a great job.
Had a few FC's after booting with no apps open usigm the new 4 finger swipe from the home screen. Sent you the stack traces via the built-in Android bug submit system.
It supports SGS1, SGS2 and Nexus, maybe something else with ICS. If your multitouch device is not recognized and you want to test, PM me for details.
Thanks, I will check it. I will add option in next release.
I'm glad you like. I will fix what I can find, for next release.Version 2.0.0 with Prev/Next App is awesome!

Toast is mostly for displaying next and previous apps and for effect. I'm also thinking to add 2 more icons, so 2 previous and 2 next apps will be visible.
Not sure if I can make it any faster. It is running in parallel to application startup,. I don't think its a good idea to sometimes display it/sometimes not, but as mentioned earlier, I will add option to turn it off.

Stupididea, is it possible to add an exclude list from Prev/Next Apps?
This exclude list will allow user to add apps that should be skipped when moving forward or backward between apps. Some apps are just not useful for everyday use although are launched and remain in memory.
Example: AndShare is an awesome replacement of Google's Share Via menu. However it registers as Recent Apps and when returning to it, it triggers its own custom Share Via overlay. This is useless outside the old context of sharing something, so this will only annoy user who needs to move through Andshare's position in Recent Apps to access older app.

As a sigh on gratitude I built you latest development version of Gesture Control with Lollipop support. This is the first time I'm sending someone lollipop update.
Quite a few features do not work but still it is usable
Please let me know if you did not receive it.
Progress update:
I'm currently working on Spen Control lollipop support but a lot of internal thing are common. However UI part is separate and while I updated Spen Control to 'material', GC is still holo.
I will be releasing SPen Control first with refreshed ui and lollipop support but I want to make bigger update for GC and add/rework many things that were discussed here or I just have in mind. Some things are already implemented but need to be merged into master some still need to be done. Main idea is to clean up GC so it is more intuitive to new users but more advanced features still will be available when digging deeper into settings.
1) One good example would be path and recorded gestures. In new version I want to join them in one dialog. So user can pick from predefined set of path gestures (swipe left, swipe right, double tap, expand, pinch, etc.) or record it but entering custom path string still will be accessible. At the moment it is confusing for new users they would they want to enter path instead of recording (pinch for example).
2) Another example is launchpad settings. Currently its confusing that you have to select which launchpad you want to configure. In new version settings will be accessible directly from launchpad instead and configure particular launchpad.
3) Blacklist - each gesture will have option to select apps where it is active/inactive. General blacklist will be simplified where you can select if gestures are enabled/disabled in homescreen, apps, lockscreen and keyboard.
4) Default gestures - I will remove default gestures tab and pre-create these in User Gestures for new users. Lite version will have limited number of available actions but users still can change gestures for these actions.
5) Settings, touch consumption, Advanced tabs, Help will be moved to menu. App will be Gestures view.
6) Touch Consumption - after user multitouch screen several times with 3 or more fingers but do not execute any gesture app will popup a tutorial explaining touch consumption with link to settings. Now quite a few new users are confused why their effort at Fruit Ninja does not give any result.
7) Reviewing/regrouping/fixing actions - so far I was just throwing in new actions. Some didn't work on particular android versions, others didn't work on some devices. I haven't decided how it will be done but I want to clean it up. I want to add plugins support too (downloadable from play store) so some really niche things or some bigger complex thing could be moved there.
8) Backup/Import/Export - long time promised, its time to add it.
While such things don't add much for experienced users it will improve overall 'quality' of the app.
Why cant I just release an old version with lollipop support? I don't have such version. I added lollipop support to half broken/work in progress version and I intend to move forward instead of backporting it. Its not just SeLinux/root issues that needed to be fixed. Some internal Api changed, recent apps work differently, etc, etc. It will be released when ready. Family > full time job > Android (4-20 hours per week).
Regards,
GMD aka StupidIdea2110.0.0-alpha
Uploaded 10.0.0-alpha to Alpha channel:
https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.goodmooddroid.gesturecontrol
Changes:
- Android Nougat support (requires SuperSu v2.78)
- Minor fixes
Notes:
Tested it on N6P (7.1.1) and N72013 (6.0.1). All actions, keyboard detections and per app settings should work. But I didn't test any older Android yet.15Thanks hasenbein1966, for donation :highfive:
Update:
Currently Launchpad and Blacklist are completely broken. UI is mix of material and holo. There are still some issues with recent apps. I will create alpha version G+ channel (without support) for lollipop version when I have more stable build.
