Had to reinstall this garbage app but now I can't take screenshots because when I press the screenshot button it goes back to the settings screen with you begging for money. And I don't appreciate the 30 second long adverts. Talk about greed. Uninstalling.

Works kinda on my Android 11 phone but actually does way too much, kinda bloated, this makes everything overwhelming and I'm an old programmer and hacker and have had to setup Win3.1 and DOS. This app is somehow worse. Also, somehow every button but the actual menu button works, to use the menu button I have to change keyboards every single time I want to do so then manually switch back. I know this is due to Goolge being dirtbags not the app dev but it's still an insurmountable hassle for me.

This has been an absolute lifesaver. The home button doesn't work reliably on my phone anymore, and usually doesn't work at all. I also know some phones don't even have the physical home, back, and app buttons anymore either. If I ever get stuck with one, I'm definitely going to keep using this app. It'll provide a set of buttons that can "snap" to the edge of the screen, and you can long press drag to move them, of they are blocking something, so that's no worry at all. Download it now!

Indispensable utility, in my opinion. And it is quite stable and bug free at this point. However the developer does make things needlesslt difficult for the end user. The application requires an extension but the developer doesn't bother to name it.

It is the only thing that gives the menu button function back. But it dies all the time even though I've put it on the safe from power restriction list. And the adds are long they take the whole screen for a timed period.

I learned of this app through the SplashID tech support when my ability to access the menus of SplashShopper didn't work after migrating to a newer phone with Android 12 vs Android 6.0.1. Works just fine for me now so I can access the apps menus and use it on my new Samsung phone. Thanks a bunch!

This is excellent! I'm only not going to say it's perfect because I have a few suggestions to make it even better: (1) auto-reengage IME after using regular keyboard; (2) allow mapping "rotate button" to "compact"+long press and "lock screen orientation" to "forcing rotate"+long press; (3) allow dpad_up/down+long press = scroll_up/down; (4) allow app to replace the system navbar; (5) allow premium users to move buttons to retractable toolbars (drawers); (6) add a "screen recording" premium key.

Absolutely amazing. I downloaded it specifically so I could utilize an old app that expected user to have a hardware menu key. This did the job helping me revitalize forgotten favorites. After several months I started playing with the SETTINGS and found there were many other features I didn't realize I couldn't live without, like on screen paste button (some scenarios make long press paste hard. I really love the force screen rotation. Keep your screen the direction you want even upside down.

This works on Android 12 to access menus from really old apps. It's a bit convoluted to use but understandable because of how it actually needs to function (sending a keyboard command). The reason for docking 2 stars is the massive amount of ads including full screen ones, would be great otherwise.

Very good! But the volume and mute buttons still show the volume control system annoy popup, there is another app that prevents that, i will keep that one installed for now. The screenshot button will focus this app, leaving any game we are playing, will the pro not do that? Instead of that, it could draw an overlay (like u did for rotate) with an AD, so it could annoy but not break/unfocus the gameplay. We need a config to let some space between the buttons, fit screen width isnt good.
