User reviews
This app does literally nothing. I installed it because I switched from a Pixel to a Galaxy Note and missed the fingerprint gestures. But after configuring it it doesn't work, no matter what I try.

Aron Rea, 2021-03-16Works perfectly on Pixel 4a 5g. I Got used to moto gestures, this does the same on pixel.. I hope it'll support hold/long hold gestures aswell.

Anas Youssef, 2021-02-08Needed an app that controlled the flashlight on my pixel 5. This app takes over the stock swipe function. You cannot use both at the same time. Luckily you can add 4 things to this app. 👍🏽
