I'm shopping for new phone for development and then I will do another round of updates.

What device and what keyboard? It work properly for me on 6p Oreo stock keyboard.

Are you using Magisk? Upgrade to Magisk if you are still using SuperSU.

I will check what I can do.

Completely disabling starting areas was discussed before. I think it is a feature that there are no dead spaces and clicks works anywhere and it's a feature that this app does not use persistent overlays. I still might add such option in the future but it is not high in my priorities.

I plan to add swipe and hold.

I know what is causing it and I will fix it.

It is implemented this way because it was intended for short use. But I will add an option for this action.
[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
Can you explain what you mean by "make navigation support toggle One Hand Mode"?

Can you give have an example of actions you want to chain? I can't think of many case where it would be useful.

I just tell the truth, I cannot afford to buy each device and its impossible to fix such issues without owning the device. I'm glad you solved it and shared the solution. Thank you.

I agree I need to add backup/restore and I will implement it soon™.

A couple of years ago different devices were reporting different pressure ranges or none at all and the measurement was very unreliable. I need to check if its more consistent now.

Maybe you disabled Active on Keyboard for recorded gestures? All gestures use same input and only recognition logic is different. Do you have disabled gestures for some apps in Settings->Per App Settings?

The action fires standard page start event however it up to the browser to handle it. I'm not surprised many browsers just ignore it cause normally you need hardware keyboards to fire such event.
[Android Apps and Games] kehne:
[MENTION=4147454]StupidIdea[/MENTION]it works really good. Give it a try and publish a beta? If you need any help feel free to contact me.

Hard pushing is very intuitive, so it's the best way to activate some gestures. Perhaps it would be useful if there is a chance to integrate a long Klick before a swipe etc? (For the beginning)

Is there anyway to disable gestures when notification shade is down/opened?
[Android Apps and Games] NeTan:
MIUI 8(or better) have function "OneHandMode". For activation this function need swipe Home and Back, or Home and Menu. But if softbar is disabled this can not be done. Can u add support for gisture-action-OneHandMode?

[IMG="Activating OneHandMode"]https://media.giphy.com/media/26DMXKiKMLuZ1oPHq/giphy.gif[/IMG]

I wanna

swipe down on the left border=Home+Menu

swipe down on the right border=Home+Back

Can u add this?
[Android Apps and Games] Harsh.gundecha:
If this kind of functionality is added great

Else you could try tasker or MacroDroid
[Android Apps and Games] ithehappy:
Is this working all fine on OG Pixels (Marlin/Sailfish) running 8.1? Any users of the device have anything to report?
[Android Apps and Games] AlexVallat:
Does Next tab/Previous tab actions work in Firefox for anyone? Close tab and Scroll to Top work fine, but next and previous tab do not. Firefox desktop supports Ctrl+PageUp/PageDown shortcut keys, so I was hoping it would be fine.

Or, is there any way to add a gesture to send a keystroke? I couldn't find one, but if there is, I could try sending Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab as an alternative, to see if that worked.
[Android Apps and Games] AlexVallat:
After investigating further, I have determined that Firefox does not support any keyboard shortcuts for switching tabs (949999). I've written a little add-on to make it do so, if anyone else needs it too: TabSwitchKeys

gesture went wrong

i set up a screenshot gesture: swipe down with 3 fingers

but, i can't trigger it out

instead, swipe down with 1 finger works...:confused:

below is the demo video

btw, when i change the gesture to swipe down with 1 finger, and i works with 1 fingers... :eek:

[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
How do you take a still of the screen with the vid cast app you're using? (Although I assume it happened the same way before you recorded it)

Oh and evaluate on release under advanced is on? And there aren't any conflicting gestures in your launcher?
[Android Apps and Games] shihpo:
i take a screen shot in youtube (second link) to get a still of the screen with the vid cast app i'm using

i don't understand your second question :confused: (valuate on release under advanced is on?)

i use nova launcher below is my gesture setting

imgur.com/kh69mae

imgur.com/jpZO0nL

btw, there's no the other gesture app
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Sorry that I was unclear.

With respect to my first question, I was wondering if the way you take a screen shot in your vid-recording app involves executing a gesture by any chance which might be interfering with the troublesome GMD swipe-down gesture you captured in the video. A long shot, I know, but I just had to ask. You probably take a screenshot in that app by pressing a physical button?

In my second question, I was referring to when you create a gesture in GMD, at the bottom of the page there are advanced settings, one of which is "evaluate on release". I always check this, and feel that it contributes to eliminating conflicts among similar gestures.

My third thought was about the possibility that you may have set up a conflicting gesture in your launcher, but you have shown that such is not the case.
[Android Apps and Games] shihpo:
anyway, i still cannot solve my problem...

and it seems that StupidIdea is busy on other things... orz...
[Android Apps and Games] Scarface1991:
Android seems to kick the App out of memory after a while and I have to restart it. Anyone else experiencing this?

Using OxygenOS based on Oreo 8.0 and the OnePlus 3.
[Android Apps and Games] issue5854:
Device Setup error

Hi, I use this app since I use smartphones, it's so cool.

But, I have an issue now. I'm using Resurrecion Remix Oreo (8.1) on OnePlus 3t, but no gestures are working. There is an issue with Device Setup. I tried all combinations on the Device Setup window, but no solution.

Error message says: No supported multitouch device detected! Please go to Device Setup and try to setup it manually.

I'm using Magisk root, and gave the app root permitions.

Any help?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Same here, with OOS beta on OnePlus 5T

Edit: battery optimization is turned off for GMD
[Android Apps and Games] Scarface1991:
I also don't know of a way how to keep certain Apps in memory even when using Xposed. There was a Module that could do this called "App Settings" but it doesn't work with Oreo.
[Android Apps and Games] cmkmkmk:
Same problem here Oneplus 5T 5.0.3,.Magisk. Currently having to force stop GMD and restart several times a day after GMD stops functioning. (Just starting GMD doesn't fix the issue)
[Android Apps and Games] cmkmkmk:
Actually, to be more precise, sometimes GMD stops functioning and just relaunching it doesn't fix the issue - only relaunching it after force stopping it restores it's functioning.

Other times, just relaunching GMD is enough. (The Force Stop button is greyed out in this case which I assume indicates GMD is no longer running)

Would appreciate very much if the developer investigates and resolves this issue as no other gesture type tool that I have found has the same level of functionality and usefulness for me.
[Android Apps and Games] ReasonablyRooted:
I have a 5T, latest Magisk, and no problems with GMD staying alive.
[Android Apps and Games] Scarface1991:
Do you use OxygenOS or a custom ROM?
[Android Apps and Games] ReasonablyRooted:
Custom. Liquid Remix.
[Android Apps and Games] Scarface1991:
So it could be a problem with OxygenOS.
[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
It was a busy winter, had bad flu then had to go to usa on a business trip (you know real job :)) some other stuff going on. But I got Pixel 2 today and sorted out most of the "other stuff". I'm working on GMD Immersive Mode update now but I will do another update for Gesture Control with new features after that.
[Android Apps and Games] Scarface1991:
It would be awesome if you could have a look why Android seems to kick the GMD service out of memory. This didn't happen on Nougat using OxygenOS. It started to happen on Oreo though.
[Android Apps and Games] cmkmkmk:
I can confirm I am using OxygenOS 5.0.3.
[Android Apps and Games] Spl4tt:
My gf and my sister both have problems with some gestures on OxygenOS. It's definitely the ROM. Since my sister flashed crdroid, all seems fine
[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
Gestures on keyboards are properly disabled on my Pixel 2 With latest Magisk and stock keyboard.

I will take a look if I can detect it I will add it.

Do you have Tasker and can you try sending Back and Home key sequence to see if it works? I'm thinking about adding general key code action.

I only tested Chrome. I'm thinking about adding general key code action.

Can you try rebooting the device just to make sure there its not some "status leftover bug" in gesture control?

Does it happen with other actions too or only screenshot?

I will test OxygenOS to see what I can do.

Maybe it uses modified kernel that changes something in touch events flow?
[Android Apps and Games] cmkmkmk:
Thank you very much for your offer to investigate the reported issue on OOS.

Regarding Oneplus OOS, I would like to report that as well as GMD frequently ceasing to function, I also have been frequently experiencing the situation where Tasker tasks called as shortcuts from GMD are not run at all or only after minute or so later of delay.

Today, I tried deleting the cache of all user and system apps with Titanium Backup. And, after a full day of use, no issues with GMD being removed from memory or delayed execution of Tasker tasks called from GMD has occurred yet.

While I have no idea clearing the cache of which app resolved these issues, I also suspect that these issues are probably related to OOS and expect that they may return later as functionally specific to OOS ("bgdetect"?) again decides later that GMD and/or Tasker are rogues that frequently need to be inhibited, kicked out of memory etc.

If this is the case, then I imagine that a workaround on GMD to prevent these issues may be quite difficult. However, if there anything that can be done it would be greatly appreciated!
[Android Apps and Games] Scarface1991:
It didn't happen on Nougat though for me. The problem only started to appear when I updated to Oreo (OxygenOS).
[Android Apps and Games] robotkoer:
General keycode action could probably help using the Screen Pinning feature too, as right now we can't do hold actions with GMD.
[Android Apps and Games] OgreTactic:
Hi, I'm new to this tool so I'll be quick:

1. Is there a non-root version or similar app?

2. Does this or any other app have iPhone X-like multitasking gestures? (Swipe-up from botton for home, Swipe-up and maintain for multitask)

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Techvir:
1. Gmd gesture does not have non root version. The closest non root app is all in one gesture app

2. Yes, and many many more.. THere are so many ways you can configure the gestures.
[Android Apps and Games] OgreTactic:
Thanks. I read All in one Gestures is one of those intrusive privacy extortion app with permissions so I won't install it, but I'll try to find another solution.

Also I guess a rooted solution is better for privacy, cpu and battery?
[Android Apps and Games] Techvir:
What????????????.?? ????...
[Android Apps and Games] Spl4tt:
There is also 'Edge Gestures' which I would prefer more without root, but GMD is still the absolutely best
[Android Apps and Games] OgreTactic:
I don't give in private information extortion on the Play Store, **** any app that asks informations or access it doesn't need.
[Android Apps and Games] djide:
I like it when it works. I have been having this issue where it just stopped working, flat out. No haptic vibrate nothing and being my navbar is hidden (via build.prop) i get stuck so i have to use Google voice to open gmd then it starts working but then stops after a while. I had to go back to swipe navigator, way smaller app with limited gesture but never failed me.

By the way am on pixel 2 xl 8.1 - magisk 16.0. Any help would be appreciated. Love this app but not that reliable at the moment.

Device in question

- Pixel 2 xl

-8.1 stock rom

- Magisk 16.0

- full GMD Gesture not the lite
[Android Apps and Games] Scarface1991:
This is an issue that is also present on OxygenOS using OnePlus devices. Android seems to kick the service out of memory after a while and you have to restart it manually. This started to happen to me after I updated to Oreo (using Nougat it worked just fine). The developer said that he will look into this. I hope he can solve the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Could you post a log?
[Android Apps and Games] Rashad83:
I can confirm this too, the app becomes unresponsive sometimes even when GMD the app is opened the gestures aren't activating any action as if it's frozen. Even after making GMD a system app(it makes it load faster when restarting the phone) and excluding it from being dosed. To regain back the normal functionality I would have to stop GMD clear the cache and restart it back. I do this from time to time. I can't confirm for certain if this happened on Nougat too or not but it's happening on the latest Oreo security update. Any way the device I am using is a Nexus 6p, using Magisk for root. By the way my N6p isn't my daily driver rather my backup phone so i don't use it too frequently, but I hate it when it just becomes unresponsive.

I can't post a log because I don't know when it's triggered to become unresponsive.
[Android Apps and Games] Spl4tt:
Shouldn't the notification prevent the closing of the app?
[Android Apps and Games] asdfasdfvful:
Notifications help, but gmd needs to be a system app to fully prevent it from being destroyed. After becoming a system app, it works fine on oxygen os with the notification on (minimized with no icon)
[Android Apps and Games] Scarface1991:
This actually worked. Thanks a lot for mentioning this.
[Android Apps and Games] forceg:
I've tried to use this app on Honor V10, but it stopped to working every some minutes. I've tried to make it system, but have no success. Problem the same. I've found that problem is related to app killing by Power Genie Engine and it disabling leads to normal app work. But Power Genie also kills other apps, so, without it phone drains battery very fast.

I've tried to investigate real problem with app (other apps works fine, when I disable battery optimizations) and have an idea, that main problem in separate process, started by app (/data/data/com.goodmooddroid.gesturecontrol/files). It seems, Power Genie does not recognize owner of process and kills it periodically.

As ideas, I can suggest (I'm not developer, so, it can be useless suggestions :) ):

* try to run all code in one process

* try to run separate process directly to make it child of current process

* try to restart process automatically in case of sudden death (can be rase condition with phone killer, but it better than nothing)
[Android Apps and Games] coolvabs:
Hi everyone! I have been using your App for 5 years and it is great. Gesture navigation has gained popularity due to iPhone x now but the developer seems to have nailed it a long back. Great work.

I have a request to the developer to add swipe and hold gesture options like that is there in iPhone X to open recent apps. Many of the Android phone makers have started giving swipe and hold options. It would be much appreciated and I think it won't be too difficult to implement.

Second Space Issue

Hi, everyone.

Can somebody help me with GMD?

There is MIUI 9 (Android 7, Redmi Note 4x Snap, root Magisk..) and 2 spaces: 1st Main and 2nd User (Second Space Stock Feature, Android MultiUser...)

1) GMD is installed at both spaces:

I draw gesture in 2nd Space, there is a vibration and it executes the app in 1st Space :)

2) when GMD is installed only in 2nd space:

I draw gesture in 2nd Space, there is a vibration, but no action at all

I NEED to draw gestures in 2nd Space and it must execute apps/actions in 2nd Space properly.

mmm? any ideas, guys?
[Android Apps and Games] _Sparks:
Yes this would be a great gesture to have. Are there any plans on adding it?

Also I can't get the gestures to work on the lockscreen! This is my biggest gripe so far. If I am on the lockscreen while on a call, google maps, etc. I cant go back anymore as the gestures dont work in the lockscreen (I disabled nav bar so back button does not appear). Is there any way to fix this?

btw thanks for the amazing app!
[Android Apps and Games] dfsteen:
I found that in order to get GMD to work reliably on Oreo I had to go into Settings-->Apps-->Gmd Gesture Control-->App Notifications and turn on "Override Do Not Disturb". Otherwise it simply would not reliably detect gestures.

Running the following:

Xiaomi Mi Mix

crDroid 4.3 (nightly) (oreo - 8.1)
[Android Apps and Games] gabuxas:
thanks for the app good job
[Android Apps and Games] Bologner:
App is fantastic so far, gestures really are changing the way I use this phone.

Feature Request: Switch Tabs button for Browser actions.

Right now, we have "Previous Tab" and "Next Tab" browser actions as choices. I think it would be awesome if there was additional action that would mimick the "Switch Tabs" button. I find myself using that more than just a single tab back and forth.

Again, this is a fantastic app so far.

I'd like to use gmd with one hand when I use the device on my bed and with the hand I hold the phone so I can use just one finger. The problems come with multifingers.it would be helpful to use the fingerprints sensor so I can touch the fingerprint reader and than with the other finger I can activate a gesture
[Android Apps and Games] Quistnix:
Because of hardware problems, I'm back to my old Android Honeycomb tablet. I seem to recall using this on Android 3 before, but I can't find a compatible version of the app anywhere. Did I miss something or is my memory wrong?

[Android Apps and Games] Elveneleven:
Hi there,

I just installed the paid version on my device and I'm really pleased with it. All works fine. But there's a bug within the app. Although I set the option to hide the notification. It always comes back after a while and I have to hide it again. The only way to suppress it permanently is to disable gmd notifications in Android settings. But then the toast messages and vibration are suppressed too, which I don't want. Can you please fix this issue?

Does anyone else has this issues?

I'm on a rooted Galaxy s3 with ressurection remix N 7.1.2 (latest build for this device)

Thank
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
It's an issue that comes up from time to time. NotifyClean (xposed) worked for me in the past.
[Android Apps and Games] ej8989:
When using gestures for screenshot, I cannot capture toast messages or any system message. It closes the message first then captures the screen.

Hi Stupid ?

Liked this app so much and become premium in no time. Please add option to permanently disable nav bar on next update...

love it so much ♥️
[Android Apps and Games] robotkoer:
Would be nice if it was a part of the GMD, but don't forget that it can also be done by a simple bool.prop edit or Magisk module: https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/magisk-module-hide-navbar

[Android Apps and Games] clouds5:
Any plans on implementing swipe & hold functionality?
[Android Apps and Games] ReasonablyRooted:
Make a task for toggling multi window in Tasker. Then set your gesture to a shortcut to that task.
[Android Apps and Games] nickname_marco:
Thanks for your answer. I was looking for a more direct way.

Thanks! That's a good suggestion. I don't use tasker myself, but I could check it out.

However... I am unsure whether to use GMD or not.

Looking at previous posts, it seems the battery consumption is negligible. On my OnePlus 6, I have the notification of high battery usage constantly running on the notification panel. But I can't find out how much battery it's using as the app isn't listed in the battery setting.

Also. I set some swipe gestures from the bottom of the screen (swipe left: back - swipe up: home - swipe right: recent) but they don't work well when the keyboard is shown. Do you have any idea on how to improve it?
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Like you said, battery consumption is negligible, take it from me, a user since the beginning who is very careful about battery usage. If you have doubts, there are plenty of apps to monitor usage and tell you how much power installed apps are using.

It's easy to replace problematic gestures with others which do not cause issues with the keyboard, among other things. No reason to be married to the swipes from the bottom.
[Android Apps and Games] ReasonablyRooted:
Check on Advanced Settings for these gestures. Make sure they are active when keyboard is showing.
[Android Apps and Games] nickname_marco:
I did it because it's convenient when using the phone with one hand. How did you setup those if you don't mind me asking?

Yes, they were.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Ah, okay, yeah, bottom gestures are handy for one-handed use, which I never got into, so, unfortunately, I don't have any advice on how to set up such gestures.
[Android Apps and Games] paarkhi:
Any news about the Pie support?
[Android Apps and Games] tiho5:
My advice is to make sure you (re-)recalibrate the borders in device setup. That's what's necessary to play with until you get the proper feeling and result, when making gestures starting at the border areas.
[Android Apps and Games] winer03:
Any way this app could work without root using adb commands instead to give the rights it needs?

[Android Apps and Games] Spl4tt:
Using gestures on the bottom destroys the purpose of gestures if you ask me. I'm using gestures so I DON'T need to move my thumb around when using it in one hand.

My gestures are on the right edge insead of the bottom. Where my thumb naturaly is when holding my phone. See this screenshot.
[Android Apps and Games] Omineca:
I'd like to see the swipe and hold gesture added to this app.

This is one of my favourite apps and I have purchased the paid version.
[Android Apps and Games] Omineca:
Thought you might like to see what people do with your app. This is mine. Created a webOS style gesture area using a little navbar hack and GMD Gesture Control. The details are here: http://darkstar.x10host.com/blog/entries/webOS_navbar_on_Android.html
[Android Apps and Games] ej8989:
How do I prevent this app from following auto-rotate? I want to keep bottom gestures where my home button is.
