User reviews
It is very good application. Because of my up and down volume button is not working properly. In this case it helps a lot. Thank you for development team and whole team. Once again Thank you so much.

Sorry, I've had to uninstall and look for an alternative. I'm fed up with the volume deciding to either go all the way down and need me to turn the screen button off and back on. I just reinstalled to see if the issue had fixed and there are loads of ads now and you have to pay to get volume for multiple sources to show.

Feature Request: add option to screenshot on long press button ( system native screenshot using accessibility permission ). I usually use volume down + power button to take screenshot but the volume button is broken.
