Ah ok, try changing the sensitivity and size of the swipe areas. The sides sensitivity depending on how much bezel you have can be as small as 2px (basiclly almost as small as you can go) and still register the touch. The bottom bar should be the same unless you have a navbar which you'll need to test the sensitivity to fit your preferences. In the Pro version you can also change the location as to not interfere.

I know about the issue with the keyboard and have tried finding a fix for it but Android doesn't allow you to listen for when a soft keyboard is open.

And the detection area is basically an invisible button, swiping isn't actually necessary it just makes it easier to swipe from the bezel so you can hit the detection area.

Will this app always getting updates/improvements/fixes/more features?
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Yes it will be the next update which will be out Monday night (est) will have bug fixes, haptic feedback, sound toggle, notification sound toggle, and auto rotate toggle. On the schedule for the rest of this week will be more toggles. And in the future I am going to try and implement some kind of folder system, showing/managing running apps, more language support, and as I get more suggestions I will see how possible they may be to do.
[Android Apps and Games] MRFERRARI23:
You're doing a great job keep up the good work and look forward to future releases and features
[Android Apps and Games] antonio1475:
Knowing that just made it easier for me (sometimes swiping won't work, I'm not sure why yet) :laugh: Although it being a button and now swipe explains why it was messing with the keyboard sides and Send button in WhatsApp :rolleyes: I fixed it by making the bars shorter and at the top.

Keep it up, it's awesome!

GPS toggle does not work on S3 with Sammy ROM 4.1.2
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
I am aware that the GPS toggle doesn't work on all devices. This has to do with it being a secure setting. I will be adding a way to go into the settings page to turn it on in the future.

Yes, otherwise, I will have to go to multitask and swipe to close the apps that are opened.

You also might want to add the ability to let users use left sidebar as app and the right sidebar as switch :o

Like I said, you should look into the link I gave to you, that app got something you need to see :o

The newest update is out and there are some major improvements.

-New app icon that I think looks a lot better than the old one

-Fixed the settings issue when turning off the app drawer and then trying to change sensitivity

-Add three new toggles (Sound, Notification Sound, and Rotate Lock)

-Added haptic feedback for the swipes and when long clicking an icon in Favs drawer

-Fixed the ClassDefNotFound error for android 2.3 devices

-Also some UI changes to better accommodate languages other than english and the add fav button on Android 3.0+
[Android Apps and Games] antonio1475:
The haptic feedback is really good, since sometimes it didn't work, now I'll be able to know if my fault or Kakudo actually not working. :laugh:

Would you try it with Apex Launcher? When I'm on the homescreen, it usually doesn't work (one swipe, wait a few seconds, then swipe and it will show previous/next app). It is maybe one of the places when Kakudo is most useful, since the Back key won't get you to the previous app when in homescreen.

:)
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
That's good, it was the most requested thing and yet the hardest thing for me to implement since my nexus 7 doesn't have the haptic feedback.

I tried it with Apex and it was working for me fine. I know sometimes the Android system calls home first before opening apps. This may be whats happening. It just takes time when at the home screen sometimes, there's nothing I can do about it (it's a "bug" with Android). If you ever notice every now and then an app may take longer to open when clicking on it icon at the home screen, this is the same thing that happens with my app.

Also some notes for everyone. The next update should be out Thursday or Friday (beta version Tomorrow) and will include more toggles such as mobile data, a home button, and some quick settings launchers for the things that need users to do them manually. After that update I am going to be working on a way for task management for the running apps. Pretty sure I have thought of a quality way of doing it just have to see how well it works.
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Looks quite good!

There are a load of these on Play. I am currently using homeflip (place favorites/recent swipe zone anywhere I please but no shortcuts--I get a couple of contacts to appear using Overlays!). I tried another sideswiper (forget which) but it was not well implemented, more trouble than benefit--need "gravity zone?" One newer one, yet-another-Ubuntu-attempt :), does favorites and shortcuts, not recent apps. Get the picture. Not one does the whole job.

Ubuntu's own launcher has: Favorites from left, scroll through running (recent too?) apps from right, contacts from bottom, etc. Probably not configurable. For example, at least from Android usage, left edge can get in the way very easily. I might prefer to split the right edge. Contact shortcuts on third zone or among favorites? I am certainly willing to pay for very conplete custimizability. Ubuntu's model is "no buttons needed." My phone has hardware (dinosaur!) buttons so may as well have some use for them.

I'll try the free version meanwhile, see how I like this implementation. Can even coexist with homeflip.

Doesn't work on S4 GT-i9500

Just bought the Pro version and found out that it didn't work at all on my S4 Gt-i9500. I'm using the default Touchwiz launcher, phone is rooted.

I used iPhone with "Zephyr" tweak before and missed it badly on Android! The "grabber" idea of Zephyr is really smart. On 1st swipe, you will see the "grabber" indicating that the phone is ready for action (switch app, back to home, recent app...). 2nd swipe, do the action. It'd be great if Kakudo has this feature.

Anyway, I will not uninstall and ask for a refund, man. :p I love the idea and want to see your future implementation and improvements!

Keep up the good work!

I dunno if this has already been asked, but does this app interfere with Google Chrome? Seeing as chrome too uses the "swipe on edge of screen" gesture, to switch tabs...

This app is great! I just purchased the Pro version and use on my LG Optimus Vu 2 with non standard 1024x768 display

Except confirming the GPS toggle does not work on my Vu 2, everything else works fine.

Suggestions:

1. Option to make Side Wipe to "Cycle" between app instead of having to hit right/left dead end

2. Left/Right animation instead of Top/Bottom animation. May be make it as option

Don't know if it would cause wake locks or hit battery life. Will try it for a few days.

App drawer (Pro version) settings unresponsive (sensitivity) on a SG Tab 2 7' - (3113) on 4.2.2 Baked ROM using Nova Launcher. Side swipe settings work perfectly fine. Any suggestions?

Works perfectly fine on a Sony Xperia TL however...!
[Android Apps and Games] antonio1475:
Every time I reboot, the app drawer is "enabled" (not really enabled but it pops up if I touch at the bottom), until I open Kakudo settings and just press Done. It's really annoying (because I don't think of it and I go writing and bam starts poping haha).

Same thing happens when I hide Kakudo notifications from system settings (Jelly Bean). [MENTION=5214470]Acela1230[/MENTION] Could you fix the app drawer appearing? :)

download link!

hey. can you upload a download link for the lite version cuz play store says its not compatible :/ (i think it will work. it says incompatible cuz i changed the screen density)
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
It may interfere. If you find it does try changing the size of the swipe bar. Chrome uses the entire edge so by changing Kakudo side size it will not interfere with it.

Thanks for letting me know. On certain devices the GPS toggle doesn't work because it is a secure setting. I just uploaded a new update that has an option to send you to GPS settings. It will still show whether GPS is on/off though.

Unfortunately Android doesn't allow for a service (which Kakudo is) to overwrite activity launch animations. The animation is whatever the app your opening default animation is.

I just published an update that fixes the start on boot feature when unchecked. I think this is what you mean.

The next time I update I will change the sensitivity limits. Thanks for letting me know.

I love this app it work fantastic on my Nexus 7. That being said for some reason on my oppo find 5 I am not sure if its a bug or something in the settings I'm missing but when i swipe sometimes it will exit the app. But this happens at random times, first two swipes will work third will exit the app. Then again first swipe will work second will exit the app etc... I bought the pro version, the only settings I changed is i disabled the app drawer and notification icon. Can you look into this? No issues on the Nexus 7 though and I haven't tried it yet on my Nexus 4 but i imagine its gonna work fine.

[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
There is a known issue with 2.3 devices that I believe has been addressed in the latest update. Please check to see if you have version 1.2 on the Pro version and 1.3.5 on the Lite version. 2.3 doesn't support android drag and drop so I had to do checks and missed one and that was causing a NoClassDef Error. If you have updated to the latest version and it still doesn't work please let me know.

Hi

I have the pro version on my Galaxy S 3. The app works really well I must say.But the vibrate option only works when I have haptic feedback ticked in my actual phone settings. This is irritating because that then means I get haptic feedback every time I hit my back or menu keys. Apps like Swipepad give you the option to enable vibrate for their app only. Could you please implement the same in this app. It'd be perfect then. Thanks for the great app and looking forward to future updates.
[Android Apps and Games] addicted2088:
Awesome app, always thought this was something Google needed to copy from the iPad (MS did, not Google -.-), so great to see an app for it. However, it'd be great if it would work only on a swipe, for now it switches apps when you tap on edge, but apart from that, this is awesome!

Did a review on it on my website. :D (http://androidtelegraph.com/kakudo-ipad-swipe-multitasking-android-review/)
[Android Apps and Games] gamepois0n:
this is an app on top of everything... so swipe is not possible, at least the way its been coded

I meant the app drawer bar (which I don't want, I just have the switching-apps sidebars) is there after reboot. Still happening, but I solved it but making all the drawer sliders to minimum (hadn't think of it before). :)

It's being worked on (post 89). It may be behind navigation bar (although in my case it works properly with navigation bar).

[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
I have decided to extend the sale indefinitely for now.

I honestly don't know what the problem may be. Have you tried restarting the app (close it in all apps settings menu) and perhaps you may also need to restart your device. No one else seems to be having this problem, so I really don't know what is causing it.

This would take an entire rewrite of the detection area, which I don't plan on doing. If this feature is requested more I may end up doing it, but for now there is no plan for this.

I will look into how to do this. Haptic feedback is one of the hardest things for me to implement because my test device doesn't have it.

Swipe is possible, but I chose to just have it be a touch to provide better user experience. There was a trade off that had to be made between swipe and touch and I chose to go with touch because swipe was more likely not react when the user tried to interact with it.

I know about this issue and will be increasing the max in the next update.

Thank you to all who have supported my app by downloading and giving me feedback. I am working on improving it and there will be updates to address all the different problems users may be experiencing.
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
oh I see. Yea I forgot to put a check in for that when the app is started. Whoops :o.
[Android Apps and Games] srt810:
I have just restarted the cellular and this is what happen:

With kakudo "running" the phone restarts correctly but the icon is still at the notifications bar and keep showing *toque para configurar" but doesn't work when I tap on it.

It's very strange because the app should be working (icon showed at the status bar) but in settings, applications the button to force stop can't be pushed.

Thanks anyway, I think it's a very useful application and I will keep following it waiting for the solution.

Initially I thought it did swipe which I thought was cool but then I couldn't find it and it was driving me crazy lol.. I think that the swipe way would seem to work easier then having to tap on the edges which is sometimes cumbersome. All in all it's a great app and look forward to more updates. I bought the app to support you
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Yea this is very odd. In the next update you will be able to get to the settings menu by clicking on the app icon on the home screen. Hopefully this will work for you. The next update should be out sometime this weekend. I am just have to run some tests on all the fixes and then it will be posted.

If the action was a swipe you would still have to start at the edge. It would just add a requirement that the touch move x number of pixels to initiate the action. I figured the touch was better and since it is on the edge if you have any bezel on your device you can swipe from the bezel and the action will still be initiated (that's how I do it in the video for the app). I am thinking I may add a swipe gesture to open a task manager, but this is far into the future, I just want the app performing better right now.

Thanks to both of you for your support

Multi finger gestures

New holo apps are appearing which have UI gestures which include sliding from the side of the screen, Play Music being an example. Are there plans for a multi finger gesture option to switch apps? Im not sure, but i think iOS switching uses multiple fingers?
[Android Apps and Games] blckDTshadow:
Hi,

first off: Great app.

If you are using other side-swipe-based Apps it's a bit annoying though, that you have you're app beeing active anywhere. I just changed the swipe-area of you're app to the middle of the screen, so that if I swipe at the top or the bottom, I get my appdrawer and get to change apps if I swipe in the middle. That solved it for me :)

The German translation is a bit off though and I don't blame you at all. I offer my help if you need help with the translation. May it just be a word list, you send me.

I'm pretty sure I'm gonna buy this app, even though Google is gonna have my credit card details <- I don't like the idea, but you're app is worth it (Guess there is no other way anyway ;))

Let me know if you need help and thanks,

blckDTshadow
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
There have been many suggestions for this. Right now there are vague plans to have an option to have multi-finger. Until then I would suggest changing the size and location of the side detection area and so it doesn't interfere with other apps.

Thanks for the offer to help with the translations. I will PM you the link to the XML strings file.

As for Google getting your Credit Card details, I assume you live in Germany and don't know if they have Play Store gift cards there but you could always just go get one and use that (This is what I do personally).

The current implementation of touch is excellent! As it won't interfere with Dolphin Browser's swipe action

---------- Post added at 06:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 PM ----------

Just one suggestion to the Pro version and it will be perfect: Make the App Drawer to pop up on the left if swipe from left hand side, and to pop up from right if swipe from the right hand side.

To me the toggle option is kind of useless, as it requires an extra press on the App Drawer to appear. I would rather access to the standard phone toggle bar from the top. I suppose the toggles would be more useful when used on a tablet.

If it is too much of hard work to make all the toggle buttons compatible to all phones, and removing the feature will cause a smaller footprint, I would rather not having the toggle button options.
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
I put a note in the pro version at the top that it is on sale for a limited time.

Changing the drawer side, like you suggest would mean the bottom bar would have to take up the entire screen or I would need two separate bars and some users like to have it just in the right side of the screen so it doesn't interfere with the screen.

I don't know what exactly you mean about the toggles, but if you don't like them you don't have to use them in the fav app drawer. They just make it easier for people when in full screen mode (a game or movie) to toggle their settings. I know I use the brightness one quite often when in a game that I want the brightness higher. I also use the bluetooth one because the setting button on the Nexus 7 leaves whatever app you are in and goes to the bluetooth settings page. I also use the notification sound toggle to turn off notification sound at night when I still want sound since I fall asleep watching netflix and to get the notification sound turned down on the nexus 7 you have to hit the volume rocker, then the volume settings, then you can adjust notification volume and it is way easier to just hit the button to turn it off.

Are you running a custom ROM? What version of Android is it? You are the first one that has had this problem and the code to change the side seems to work since you said the detection side changes. Try restarting the app. If that doesn't work maybe restart your device. If not that try clearing the data in the android app settings page. Also maybe try removing the Lite version if you haven't (I don't think this should be causing a problem but you never know). If none of this works I really don't know what to tell you other than I am sorry that it doesn't work on your device and maybe a future update will somehow fix it.
