Major bugs & feature-limitations on a Galaxy S24 Ultra OneUI 6.1 Android 14 Bug: "Long press" is broken, so settings for modules cannot be access. Most modules therefore have no accessible settings. Those with initial-config windows — like choosing an image for the Image module — require the app be uninstalled to change. Issue: GIFs do not animate in the image module. If you purchase the video module, they can't be opened.

2 issues with this app right off the top. When you import anything, all of the preset launchers disappear that you may have edited and saved. Secondly, once you crest a new "folder", it's always there. You cannot remove it. I use it only because there is a striking lack of overlay apps that let me put something across the screen similar to a read ruler. I only give it 3 stars due to this otherwise it would be a 2 star app.

Great app. The free version has so many features and configurations. Even though I get a high battery usage notification, it doesn't really seem to put too much drain on my battery after extended use. The developer updates and adds features constantly. The app is also easy to turn off if you are really running low on battery so it inst very intrusive. One of my favorite configurations is using a 4x1 music player widget (with some transparency) over google maps, so I can listen to tunes and change tracks while navigating.

Great idea, exactly what I needed. I own a fold phone made for floating apps, but this is something else. I can add a widget as a small overlay always visible. The sidebar is a nice touch. Triggers on specific events has a lot of potential although they lack some customisation, like Bluetooth connectivity by device to be able to choose if it triggers when connected or in the other way around. Anyway, now I can see what I need at all times. Thank you!

This is a great app! I use an app all the time that has the title in one spot and it burned into my screen on my last phone. This is exactly the app I needed to put a black box over that part to avoid burn in. But now I am excited to find other uses for this. I bought the pro version just cuz I like it so much, even tho I don't need pro features.

Great app. Easy to use and enables you to add lots of extra to your android device. I can tell the developer really cares about the app as they are quick to respond to whatever issues you contact them about. They were able to find the issue I was having before and are already on their way to fix it. In summary: Great app, and great support. 5 stars.
