polishing needed. if I have system level swipe to go back enabled, it should be given preference first. the pie should be activated If I touch the activation area. the app currently hinders the swipe to go back. major flaw. if that's fixed, I'd switch over from pie controls that I currently use in a heartbeat. this pie looks gorgeous, but, it's unusable in the current state.

This app is perfect. Only wished I could move the gesture location to the bottom corner, would be so much easier

I'd like to use this but it doesn't allow you to move the trigger to where you want, if you don't want the entire length of the left, right or bottom of the screen, clashing with the stock gestures, you can shorten the triggers but only in the middle of the edge, e.g. short trigger middle left, not lower or upper left, this is too limiting for me. To get around this it would be great to launch the pie from another gesture app, but that's not an option either. Too bad.
