Wished the dead zone size could go lower than 1℅ When I am in landscape mode and I try to swipe down the control panels (Right side), it swipes down the notification area instead (Tecno)

This is a useful app for devices where the edges are too sensitive to touch, and you find there are too many accidental touch inputs from the edges, especially when you're gripping a phone that has thin/no bezels with one hand.

Two phone cases broke on me within a year so I started raw dogging it. The annoying "bezels are the devil" trend and having no built-in touch rejection feature meant I was constantly accidently touching things on my screen with my palm as I reached across it with my thumb or when I held it while typing. This app is simple, straight forward, does exactly what it says it will do. No ads, and just for that I will buy the donation version. Thank you for this app!

Does what it says. It's an essential utility for my phone's sensitive edges, but its accessibility permission requirement is breaking notifications from my browser, as weird as it sounds. Thus the removal of one star.

It work only once and then it has to be forced closed and them setup the entire settings, it's frustrating, choosing manually games also won't work either, and worse thing is this app won't stop, it's always running on the back ground even if it's not being used

So far so good. Seems to do everything it was meant to do. I have found the accidental touch on the edge of my Samsung to be utterly frustrating and this could be a godsend. If it continues to do what it's meant to I will be doing the coffee purchase as well.

This was exactly what I needed to combat my ghost touch! Most other apps that disable touch in an area, does not allow anything to be placed on the navigation and notification bar, but this app covers all corners, literally. The app is easy to use and understand at a glance and it's free. I've been browsing for an app like this for about 5 days now and I can say that this is the first of it's kind

This app was fantastic, but stopped working around the time I had a recent Samsung update. Can't get it to work at all now. Everything is enabled as it should be, but it's like it isn't on at all. Back to days of my palm constantly unintentionally hitting the backspace button. Aarg.

BEWARE-Froze my phone. The red side lines covered 75% of phones screen and has made it impossible to use. This is brand new phone and so worried. 2 hrs on ph with Samsung and they couldn't help because I couldn't access my code to unlock. Finally a Youtuber had a quick fix on how to master reset.I spent alot of time setting up my phone just how I like and this app put me back to ground zero. I just don't know how there are any even partially decent reviews.EMAIL is NO GOOD here either - BEWARE

I need something to turn the edge protection off for my oneplus 8T, it's on by default and no option to turn it off, stupid oneplus dev use the same OS for 8, 8 Pro, and 8T, and also the newer models, but other than 8 Pro, the rest don't have curved screen, and the support didn't even care, and ignore this for a year.
