FAQ
Does the app require root access?
Not for 95% of the functions.
Can I purchase the Pro version directly from you without the Playstore?
No, not right now.
Does this app share data with the developer or third parties?
No, the app does not even require permission to use the Internet.
Can I help with the translation?
Sure, please send me an e-mail to
[email protected].
Troubleshooting - General
When I reply to a message directly from the notification, my keyboard darkens.
General -> More -> Prority fix
My space bar doesn't work as well anymore or I sometimes accidentally trigger actions.
Switch to "Enhanced mode". This can be done on the overview page.
Set "Keyboard adaption" (Behaviour -> Usability) to "click-permeable".
How to disable "Gesture Control is displaying over other apps" notification?
Video tutorial
Troubleshooting - Navigation bar hider (1.1.9+)
I have a thin line at the edge of the display.
General-> Navigation bar hider -> Force complete hide
The navigation bar is visible in landscape mode.
General-> Navigation bar hider -> Navigation bar position -> Choose your position
I have uninstalled the app but the navigation bar is still hidden!
Execute “adb shell wm overscan reset”
My device has a notch and the navigation bar is not hidden correctly.
Please set the correct size once by yourself: General -> Navigation bar hider -> Other -> Custom size
Since one of the last updates (Android P) the navigation bar hider doesn't work anymore.
I'm working on a fix. If your device does not have Notch, the problem can be solved by deactivating the "Notch adaptation" (General -> Navigation bar hider -> Other). If the device has a notch, then the option "Custom Size" (see question one above) can be used.
