App is great when it works, but it doesn't always. There is a known bug where the cursor no longer appears on the Pixel Fold 9 Pro outer screen many times when the device is folded/un-folded and the only fix is to restart the device. This is a known issue and the developer states that it's an issue with Android which I believe, but doesn't help the fact that the app becomes unusable about 50% of the time. This is the only thing keeping me from purchasing the app.

Hi! This is an awesome app and idea, it's sorry useful in my day to day life. A small bug does keep affecting me though -- I can't seem to blacklist any apps. Whitelist also doesn't seem to work. Whenever I click on any app then "done," it doesn't save my choices. For reference, I have pro and a Google Pixel 7. Thank you!! :D Edit (Nov 11th, 2024): that worked!! Thank you :D

Don't know why something like this doesn't come with all smartphones, especially with how tall they've gotten. Worth the price to upgrade too. Edit: The same way there are shorcuts for Flashlight, SplitScreen mode etc. there could be a shortcut to turn on Android's One-Handed mode. Would be especially useful as an edge action. Edit: The two finger bottom swipe gesture works great for this
