So far the only app I have found that works with "wide view" is chrome. Is there a setting sonewhere to add more apps to this view? For me, wide view is the entire point of a phone like this. LG adding functionality to use the phone purely in wide view mode is pretty much a must for it to be worth buying this thing, if you ask me...

Yeah... While I appreciate that dev making that app... Its a far cry from what is actually needed unfortunately.
Are you sure you are using it correctly? It allows virtually every app to work in widescreen. You can also use it conjunction in tasker.
Yes. The constant switching is just nowhere near as good as just having a permanent wide mode button like the Axon M had.
Have you tried it with Tasker? For me, every option in the configuration for the plugin just turns on Wide View, including Off and Toggle. Maybe I'm doing it wrong. Do you have a sample profile?
How does Tasker help with this? Are you using autmating wideview when launching specific apps?
Hi. All the settings--on, off and toggle--work for me.

Yes. I have it set to launch automatically on apps like gmail, word, etc.
I am a Tasker novice. Can one of you describe how to create the task that launches Widemode when opening certain apps?
Sure. Here's the export for the relevant Tasker task:
G8x Wide (74)
A1: Force Rotation [ Mode:Landscape Reverse Alternative Method (Check Help)
ff ]A2: Switch Wide Mode [ Configuration:Turn ON Timeout (Seconds):0 ]
A3: Force Rotation [ Mode:Landscape Reverse Alternative Method (Check Help)
ff ]Please someone help me with video tutorial how to properly set wideview with tasker
