I have a suggestion for a feature that I believe would be very useful. It would be great if, when I swipe and hold, it could trigger one of the contextual menus or quick actions (the ones that appear when you long-press an app icon, which are different from the shortcuts already implemented in this app) allowing you to quickly access specific functions within the apps. In my case, open one of the search functions available in my phone's launcher 🙏

Facing Problems on POCO X6 Pro. Not able to hide navigation buttons. adb shell pm grant com.ivianuu.oneplusgestures android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS does not hide navigation buttons. Used settings command as well. Doesn't work on On OnePlus 12.

Idk why this app has such a low rating, it works perfectly. I'm on a Mi 9T, which has nav gestures built in, but I prefer my own. There's no adds. You can set any app to a gesture. Been using this app for at least years, before nav gestures were the hype. People used to ask how they could get it, and I'd lead them here. Awesome app. Only wish was, more gestures. Like swipe in and up, in and down, etc .......
