Update: Now on android 14, this is still a wonderful tool and mostly works. Thank you dev, 300%looking forward to ver.2! Previous review: Wonderful. Been using Swapps for years, long after it stopped being updated. SO glad I found this, and finally i can move on from swapps - it is just as good if not better! Takes a bit more time to set up, but definitely looks better, and has more to offer in terms of functionality. Works so nice with gesture navigation on android11.

This is the best looking and most complete app to act as a context settings menu button without root. I have two smart phones that are always out and ready because they are my worst condition phones. The input keyboard and screen display is delayed. That is where this app comes to the rescue.

Sidebar breaks in Android 12. When you dismiss the sidebar there's a chance it'll prevent anything on screen from being interacted with (keyboard, home screen, etc), except for the power dialog. So you have to reboot into safe mode and uninstall Shortcutter to fix the issue. Going to avoid this app until the bug is fixed.
