To make the visibility and appearance of the sensor bars in individual apps customizable, and to display and launch installed apps, the app needs access to the list of installed apps.

Privacy is important to me. This application will not send any personal data to the developer or anyone else.

Really great app But would appreciate it if the navigation bar could adjust to background light instead of staying in one color When an app is in bright mode the bar still remains white Would love it if you work on it

Great app, got the pro version minutes after a look around in the free version. Would be happy if I could see more in the free version but still I've seen enough to buy it. Edit: 3 years later, still using it on daily basis. Plenty of times it crashes making it unavailable and have to restart the service manually. Other than that it is fine.

This app is awesome! It allows me to fully customize the bottom bar on my way, which I really needed. The only missing feature is automatically changing the color of the bar so that it is adaptive and visible in any app. Otherwise, I have to manually change the color of all the apps in the “app adaption” corner to make it visible all the time, which is quite annoying. With this feature added, this app will be just perfect! Will definitely change the rating to five stars if this feature is added!
